The main character in Butter looks abnormal, yet the viewer understands by the end that the world around him is clearly absurd and grotesque, a mirror image of post-soviet Kazakhstan. He himself may actually be normal and he is desperately searching for something ideal or beautiful in life.

October 5th - 16th 2012
We present film series focused on 16 different countries and regions. This section intends to discover and explore different spaces and cultures with the aim to understand the specific regional, political and social circumstances, do reconstruct the emotional and intellectual spécificities of a special region or country. In this critical work we belief it's essencial to prefer films which rufuse, in its form and expression, the retake of sterotype ways of reality restituition, as an act of resistance in the actual period of "globalisation", which inclins to impose one dominating model of culture and habitutes.
he "Pointing Out" programs promote new and strange views, new talents and complex visions from all over the world, treating provocant, sensible and urgent subjects in a innovative and personal style.
