The documentary AUTISM AS A GIFT is a sensitive testimony from the parents of a nine-year-old autistic boy Ángel. They look at their son's "disability" or "peculiarity" from a different perspective than most of the society: to them it is a gift. Opportunity for self-knowledge and self-education.
 


Waves

PARIS PREMIERE


Vojtech Domlátil
Republic Czech
2017 | 00:03:00

An observer, who clears his mind to work with time and space. He not only reaches certain pixilation ecstasy, but also, if he joins "the wave", his way absorbs him completely. Non-narrative pixilation of the Czech landscape.

The documentary is my coming of age among a community of Gypsies in Nabbin, a small village in the Czech Republic. In the film I portray the uninhibited and inspiring friendship with my wild friends. Although this community is socially unprivileged, I’ve come to know people full of generosity.
 


 

 

 

 

October 3 - 13 , 2019

The FISDN 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.
