Blanca and Patzi migrated from Bolivia to Argentina. They carry the lore of ancient history, the memory of a dream in Aymara, a mud brick house, the moon and the harvests. When they migrate, things change their name, their time, their place. The roots unfold in the dark tracing paths through the Earth. The community emerges in the city as a way to construct a possible present. Within the collective they weave their stories together with those of other women where they see themselves reflected and empowered. Two women, a shared journey that crosses more borders than the territorial.

Meri unearths memories about Osvaldo, her father, a militant and leader of the Workers’ Party in Argentina. Much like piecing together a shattered vase, she delves into the chronicle of the first accusation of gender violence within that organization. The story winds through both party and family archives, intertwining with the portrait of her mother, Flavia. The director reconstructs her family history, which is, in turn, the history of the party and the political history of the country. An unsettling journey of discovering and yet still loving a father who unveils his monstrous side, “Internal Newsletter” stands as a testament, reflecting on the personal and political upheavals that bind three generations of revolutionary activists.

In 1996, five overworked Yale undergrads formed a club to watch porno films on weekends while ingesting mass quantities of fried chicken and Miller High Life. As the "Porn 'n' Chicken Club" gained members and notoriety, the hide-bound Yale Establishment ordered that the club be closed down. Defiantly, the original members scraped together enough money to produce their own X-rated movie – and much to the dismay of the faculty and administration, the club became more popular and renowned than ever.

Algérie, la vie toujours

In ‘Here After’, filmed in a soon-to-be-demolished inner-city tower block on the north side of Dublin, objects disintegrate before our eyes, as though being eaten by some strange virus or invisible entity. The contents of a room disappear as the carpet beneath them is sucked into a void below. Wind haunts the empty spaces, stirring the curtains on an open window, or the wallpaper which barely clings to the damp wall. This movement is contrasted by the stillness of an undressed bed, a rectangle of light from outside creeping over its surface, pausing as if resting one last time before moving off again. The barrier between the interior and exterior is no longer intact, and nature encroaches – water dripping down walls, advancing slowly over floors, spilling dangerously from light-fittings. Light spills in too, but rather than hopeful illumination, its presence is menacing, evoking a sense of time passing too quickly, bringing premature decay.

A trip to North Korea to play hoops and meet with supreme leader Kim Jong-un.

Tequila. Sexo, Drogas y Rock and Roll is a documentary narrated by Cecilia Roth and with the participation of the survivors of the mythical rock band Tequila: Ariel Rot, Alejo Stivel and Felipe Lipe. The film tells the tale of the legendary rock band who provided the soundtrack for the liberation of young Spanish people during the transition. Five young people who suddenly pull off their dream of making good and those destroyed by the fame and success. But their songs have succeeded in lasting over time as indestructible classics.

Void of any language, communication or true sense of self, Lawand struggles to piece together his surroundings in his new home in Derby, England, after a traumatic and turbulent year of seeking asylum through Europe.

Since its debut in 1994, Nigeria has qualified for six of the eight FIFA World Cup tournaments, reaching the last 16 on three occasions. They are three-time Africa Cup of Nations winners. And they have placed fifth in FIFA rankings – the highest position achieved by an African team. It’s no surprise, then, that they are affectionately known as the Super Eagles. Bamiro’s fascinating documentary not only details how the team grew in stature, it locates them within the country’s politically turbulent recent history – through the various coups, the imprisonment and execution of writer and activist Ken Saro-Wiwa and many others, and the corporate scandals resulting from widespread pollution. It successfully balances profiles of those involved in the team’s success with figures who have fought to better life across the whole of the country.

The "Dupla de 3" theater collective selects ten young independent artists from different regions of Rio de Janeiro to create a unique and authorial performance, developed at a distance in the midst of a global pandemic.
