The Woodpeckers

GERMAN PREMIERE


Bibhusan Basnet, Pooja Gurung

Atimaley and Devi’s village is haunted by memories. When a dear friend leaves the village without saying “goodbye”, the old couple faces a dilemma; to keep living with the memories or to leave the village for good? Why create anything when everything ends as dust and grime? Is it for the sake of remembrance? Is it for the immortality of the subject or the ‘artist’ itself? Or for the hope that our ‘work of art’ will one day come alive and lift our souls from this mess of life ? ‘Dadyaa’ started out as an exercise to test these very themes around an old couple in the highlands of Jumla. But once again, life happened and the wonderful mess around it helped us as directors to draw parallels between our fictious world and the reality that exists in remote Nepal.

January 21 - 22, 2017

Eine internationale Jury überschaut das Kurzfilmpanorama aus aller Welt. Das FISDN präferiert Filme, die gesellschaftlich sensible Themen in orgineller Weise thematisieren, Filme, die Ambiguität und Komplexität nicht scheuen, die zuweilen enigmatisch bleiben, so dass die Reflexion über sie nicht abbricht, aussergewohnliche Filme, die alle Fommen künstlerischen Ausdrucks nutzen und offen sind für ästhetische Innovation, kurz Filme, die die irritierende Fremdheit der gegenwätigen Welt im komplexer Weise darstellen.
