Les (différents) Mondes à l'honneur

October 10th - 20th 2013
We present film series focused on 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. |

Participating in making decisions related to your own life, winning your rights, self-organizing, confirming your opinion -- being a citizen. In recent years, activist groups, civic initiatives and movements are creating a qualitatively new society in Armenia. Activist groups are actually implementing the rights which are given by the Constitution of Armenia but which largely remain on paper. In contrast to the ruling "culture" - close, violent and hierarchical, they are creating new diverse, open, creative cultural spaces and discourses. , an
independent political action and civic activity.
The film aims at revealing benefits of being a proactive citizen as opposed to a passive and obeying "resident", destroying the expectation for a "savior" to solve our problems and breaking the thinking of "nothing depends on me.

This is a story woven in a grotesque, absurdity and tragic farce – a look at the world with the eyes of a lamb – that brings forward philosophical thoughts about the meaning of life, loyalty, friendship, love and betrayal. Who are we - people or a dumb bleating herd? How do we treat others and ourselves? What do we place upon a pedestal and what do we worship? The film is about how in our modern evil world, commonly, a phenomenon can be seen when a shepherd who is called to lead his people turns out to be a Judas, a betrayer who is ready to sell for thirty pieces of silver
