The Last Mermaid

The world is flat and horizontal. Yet, as long as we’re alive, we stand on it on our two legs. In this vertical very short film, a womanfeels this contradiction in her very body. She feels weird, she doesn’t belong, she’s alone. Is she depressed or the last of her kind? A trip to the sea will confront her to these questions. Mater andspirit will clash.

Mothers of the Gods

Mothers of the Gods

Samiha, nine children, first female Sheik of Patagonia. María, a widow with five children, an indigenous Mapuche, who had taken up Buddhism. Maicoño, young singer. She went around Patagonia with the aim of collecting the traditions of other old Mapuches before they took them to the grave. Estrella Resonante Amarilla and Humana Espectral Blanca. In their little houses built of adobe, straw and stone, they gave birth alone. For Samiha, María, Maicoño, Estrella and Humana, there is no real difference between their respective gods. They create them day by day, reinventing their faith each morning. These women, who have been disinherited, abandoned, want to generate a material and spiritual inheritance for their children. For this reason they have decided to join forces to build this ‘ecumenical temple’. With a good sense of humor, they themselves define it as ‘a postmodern Noah's Ark, destined to save spirits from the globalized flood'.

The section "Cinéma in Transgression" offers middle or feature lengh films out of norm and order, between fiction and documentary, characterised by complex audio-visual languages, unpredictable associations based on unconcient, metaphorical and metonymical proceedings. In this way these films can express the complexity of reality.
