Based on the personal experience of the filmmaker during the Gaza war
of 2014. “It's Ramadan…a very hot summer…with no electricity and no
fan…We thought it would be like the 1st and 2nd wars, but this one is
different! It’s madness all day and all night long... We sleep a
little here and there when the shelling stops.. It is unbearably hot,
as if hell opened its doors. Heat, fires and death... The sky is
crimson red all night long as if with fireworks, like a horror movie
and we are in it…”

October 5 - 15, 2017
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.
