"Dum spiro spero is a Latin saying meaning ‘while I breathe, I hope’.
Until this day it has remained the motto of those who refuse to quit
until the very last breath. Intertwining daily life, books and death,
the author speaks about losing strength and the strength to cope with
the loss. Everybody die the moment they are born, which is the
greatest reason why to understand the values of life and enjoy the
joys it gives. The acclaimed writer after a series of book made his
first film and his literati experience spoke in a cinematic language
that reaches the level of his literature. Details of ordinary
surrounding and daily life fit in with the story they engender. This
film is to a great extent a one-man show, because next to the script
and directing, the author also filmed all the material and played the
mouth harp."

An international jury overview the sections of short films coming from all over the world. We prefer documentaries which succeed in representing the complexity of reality and discover in a new way its sensible and perturbing aspects on the same time accentuating the ambivalent and enigmatic status of reality in avoiding sterotypes and simplifing conclusions.
