Oído odio

A neighborhood anecdote that occurred during the pandemic inspires this reflection on the space of violence generated by the scope of hate as a social construct in its relationship with the image and its representation. Confronting the forms that the hatred with which we live takes on through the images of the assault on Rodney King, George Floyd and two immigrant women in Madrid and in the Barcelona metro, this bold work proposes different languages to represent, think . and interpret the textures of hate that surrounds us and the emotions they produce.

Viento de atunes

An ancient fishery known as the Almadraba Bluefin Tuna Fishing. 600 fishermen. The large bluefin tuna crosses the Atlantic to spawn in the Mediterranean. During the months of May and June, large schools of tuna cross Gibraltar to reach the coasts of the province of Cádiz. For 21 days we have followed the fishermen of the coastal areas of Conil, Barbate and Zahara de los Atunes, learning with them what this ancient fishing means. Originally from the Phoenicians and still preserved the same. Manual, artisanal fishing, in which the fish is trapped through an underwater labyrinth of nets. Many families from these coastal areas of the Iberian Peninsula depend on the experience, wisdom and effort of these workers every year.

Sucedió en Grazalema

Narration of one of the most lacerating events in the history of this municipality in the Sierra de Cádiz: the murder of 15 neighbors, without trial or formation of any cause. Some of these victims had fled in September 1936 but ended up returning to the municipality, probably in February 1937. It was on that date that the town's Falangists arrested them and executed them, and not as previously thought in the summer of 1936. Several survivors and relatives of those massacres narrate what the arrests of the women and the shootings were like. They also talk about the exhumation of the bodies of these 15 women, where for many years family and friends have brought flowers.

Berlin: Been there / to be here

Numerous filmmakers and video artists have attempted, with varying success, to produce visual representations of memories. The eye of memory does not see things in the same way as the physical eye, and many artists have come to regret this difference. Aravena Abughosh's attempt belongs to the category of successes. He has managed to account for the fragmentary and associative character of memory; for the vague emerging and dissolving of images, and even for the feelings that are so intrinsically linked to it.

With Eyes Open

"Your path is determined by everything you do, because there are rules: this is right and this is wrong, and you will be judged. But we have to realize that every person is truly different from each other. You cannot box them in. Not at all. We are much more than that". With this premise, the documentary goes through the life of Alba, a 20-year-old girl who has been living against social structures since she came of age. The conversations with her family, the spontaneous dialogue between her and the director and her day-to-day problems will tell her story by themselves.
