Synopsis

Idiot or genius, Arthur, homeless outsider spends most of his days in the book shop. Ironically the "idiot" has a knowledge of the world of music and film far greater than any random customer in that shop. Everyone is running around the vanity fair of the huge shopping mall, while Arthur hides behind book stores reading and learning stories from the world.
The modern alien, whom everyone calls an idiot, lives in the outskirt of reality but it seems that the world around is incapable of embracing his wisdom. He wanders around the modern jungle city, trying to find his humanity which everyday is taken away from him. He is attacked or humiliated to what he responds with the most eloquent language learnt from books.
A portrait of a man who chooses to be free on the streets, and has no place where he belongs.

Journals

Director: Victoria Davis

Year: 2021

Several people wander between dream and memory searching for the ones they lost. Interwoven destinies bring us an intimate and moving answer to this question. By fulfilling their innermost dreams and connecting with the ones they love. What happens to the ones we love after their death? Can we bring them back? Can we keep them alive through our memories? Or perhaps by placing them in an imaginary afterlife world? Journals explores the question of the existence and afterlife in its various imaginative forms and visions around the world. It is about the parallel life that we can dream of, but cannot touch.

The Things We Don't Say

Director: Ornella Mutoni

Year: 2024

A group of young adults born during or just after the 1994 genocide against Rwanda's Tutsi people gather to find the courage to break a powerful taboo. Rwanda is one of the few nations in the world providing specialist counselling for children conceived through rape, who number 10,000 across the country. Here, course leader Emilienne, a mother, therapist and genocide survivor, helps the group to imagine a future free from family secrets and societal stigma. In a circle of supportive peers, they tell their individual stories and face their struggles together, in the hope their participation will advocate for others facing similar trauma.
