PALMIRA

Diana Gonçalves

Galicia / Portugal, 2017

30 min. OVSTSP

Palmira is the encounter between a centenarian woman and a documentary apprentice who, over the years and for a few days, are reunited to build their portrait. Which portrait? Palmira’s or the documentalist? Inadvertently, both. Life passes by slowly, repetitively. A tired but resistant body. On the other side of the camera, an attempt to find that fleeting moment that reveals to us something more from life. From observation to construction with the character itself. Palmira is the portrait of several encounters as well as the testimony of the process and evolution of that portrait.

RUINAS

Manuel Mozos

Portugal, 2009

60 min. OV

Fragments of spaces and times, times and places where just inhabit memories and ghosts. Traces of things all the time, the elements, the nature, and the human action itself changed and modified. With all the time it ceases to be, eventually becoming something else. Places that no longer make sense, to be needed, to be in fashion. Forgotten places, obsolete, inhospitable, empty. It doesn’t matter here explaining why they were created and existed, nor the reasons why if abandoned or have been transformed. Only if it promotes an idea, perhaps poetic about something that was and is part of the story (s) in this country.

VOICES OF BAM

Maasja Ooms

The Netherlands, 2006

90 min. OV

A film about the powerful earthquake that struck the ancient city of Bam in southeastern Iran on December 26, 2003, killed over 43,000 people. Voices of Bam offers a completely different portrayal of disaster-one far more sensitive than mere reportage-as it accords its subjects enormous dignity while giving them an opportunity to express themselves with a rare, simple eloquence.
