ZALIGER by Nina Gantz

"A widower is facing the difficulties of being alone"

AMARILLO
by Ana Pérez López


"This fruit has been part of our cultural history for centuries and is now threatened by extinction through monocropping and a looming epidemic. Ana Pérez López lets us take part in her internet expedition to explore the fate of the Gros Michel banana with alert humor. A finely drawn chronicle which also uses relics of the media and everyday history of the 20th century to retrace how telegenic the industry banana is and will remain. Even if it will soon cease to exist."

Prayers for Peace by Dustin Grelly

PASAJES by Luis Paris

Idea and production: Luis Paris
Music: fragment of "Andina" (Dino Saluzzi)

"A tribute to my bicycle, a witness to the same landscape traveled by
my uncles, my father, my grandfather."

Undone by Hayley Morris

"A drifting man struggles to pull objects from the roiling sea below him and scrambles to keep the objects from slipping through his fingers. A stop-motion animation using textured and tactile materials, as well as personal imagery, that represents the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. Inspired by my grandfather."
