CONTINUUM (Uganda)
A continuum, something that keeps on going, changing gradually over time, and that is what life, humanity and society is, it never stops. It always finds away to be born again. The search and conquest for paradise is never ending but trending.

MERCEDES DANS (Ukraine)
No one needs to live according social rules any longer and to think about what people will say either. The feeling of freedom, inner voice and of course the dance; that’s all what matters.

OLMÉ (Italy)
The Olmè wood, in Cessalto, Italy, on the border between the provinces of Treviso and Venice, is a residual plain, preserving one of the rare wooded areas that survived deforestation within the Po-Veneto plain.
An exceptional resource for what it still preserves, an ecosystem linked to a phase preceding modernity and industrialization. Crossing it you enter a mystical, sacred dimension, you are immersed in a multiform and mysterious habitat marked by lights and sounds with a fairy and timeless character.

AFTER (France)
Après’ is a dance film. It came from the desire Juliette Hilaire and I had to speak about the emotions we’ve been experiencing since the beginning of the pandemic. We started thinking about the idea of resilience. Throughout the film, the two women played by Juliette and Ida Viikinkoski (both dancers in the Paris Opera Ballet), try to recover from and overcome a shock. Through their combat, we want to tell a timeless and universal story. No matter what the traumatic event, the amount of energy required is immense and the guarantee of coming out unscathed uncertain.

ISLEE (Italy)
Islee reflects the borders we made, the eternal aisle of the unknown, the stereotypes without souls, the insane sense of isolation. Plastic is twisted on the body plugging the tissues and killing the breath. The reality is based on something far away from the truth of human beings. Tied hands, covered mouths, broken hearts. But in an isolated system the entropy can only increase.

FLIGHTS (Poland)
inspired by Flights by Olga Tokarczuk
