De matar galinhas
Porém são capazes
De comer galinhas.”

(Live Action, O.V, French, Sub PT)

While caring for his ailing father, Marcus, 17, has only a few days left to submit the short film needed to apply for his dream film school. Lost between the guilt of leaving his father alone and the desire to live his own life, Marcus throws himself into his shoot. 

Cura sana

Jessica and Alma, two sisters in a situation of domestic violence, will begin to treat each other with love instead of violence through one of their routine trips to the food stamp office on the night of San Juan, a Spanish holiday.

Unless we dance

Bonays, Colacho, Mafalda, and Rihanna embrace dancing to confront the structural violence that exists in Quibdó, a city with the highest homicide rates in Colombia. Their joy and celebration of artistic expression serve as a powerful act of resistance.

 

Percebes

Alexandra Ramires, Laura Gonçalves, 2024, Portugal / France, 11’30’’
(Animation, O.V, Portuguese, Sub EN)

With the sea and the urban Algarve as a background, we follow a complete cycle of the life of a special shellfish called PERCEBES, a goose barnacle. From their formation to the dish, in this journey, we cross different contexts that allow us to better understand this region and those who live there.
