Mountain Man

In Bhutan, 11-year-old Yangchen’s father is the country’s glacier specialist, and thus the only person authorized to climb the mountains, which are considered to be sacred. He spends months away from home measuring the rapidly melting glaciers. While hiking through the snow to the farthest reaches of the Bhutanese Himalayas, he faithfully shoots videos for his daughter with his phone. These videos take the viewer into breathtaking landscapes, but it also becomes increasingly apparent that something irreversible is happening.

Calypso, Love Nia

Living on the island of Montserrat for more than ten years, the director couldn't remember a time when calypso was not a part of her story. Spending her first Christmas away from Montserrat was revealing. She didn’t recognize how much she had grown to enjoy calypso as part of her Christmas experience. She have also provided vocals for studio sessions, the Carnival's Calypso Monarch competitions, working with the best of the best. In May 2022, 60 years of calypso was on the horizon. With that she thought it would be a great time to explore Montserrat's calypso history and satisfy the curiosities that grew over time.

All the Flowers

Brothels are rarely seen as safe or dignifying. Yet, in a red light district of Colombia, a country torn by decades of war, there's a tiny brothel named "Tabaco y Ron," which acts as a shelter and shield for trans sex workers that work there. Through a choral portrait of the trans community that inhabits the brothel, this documentary constructs an intimate vignette of this remarkable space. Located in Santafé, Bogotá, the brothel operates in a zone that concentrates all the miseries of a bloodstained region but is also an oasis for all people desperately fleeing war.

Unsettled History: America, China, and the Doolittle Tokyo Raid

Doolittle's Raiders pull off a one-way bombing run over Tokyo and ditch their planes in and along the coast of China, where they are rescued by Chinese villagers, guerrillas, and missionaries. That generosity triggers horrific retaliation by the Japanese that claims an estimated quarter-million lives and prompts comparisons to the 1937-38 Rape of Nanking. The memory of the Raiders and their rescuers is kept alive by their children and grandchildren.

Feeling the Apocalypse

Psychotherapist and UoFT assistant professor Anderson Todd is no stranger to creeping feelings of despair. From the disappearing wildlife in his hometown Owen Sound to seeing news stories about melting ice sheets and decades-long droughts, there is no end to the parade of ominous news. Little wonder then, that the worried comments from Anderson’s clients and students about the future only increase and increase. And like many others, he finds it difficult to share this crushing dread with others without turning them away. But our short film isn’t just about anguish. It’s also about what we do now. No, our individual actions may not be able to change the course of feedback loops or reverse fossil fuel extraction. But that doesn’t mean we can’t be contributing a community, we can’t be learning useful skills, and we can’t be connecting with other people and making a difference in their lives, now or later.

The Nine Lakh Stars

Loubna Régragui is above all a film preservationist who also makes films. One needs to put it like that to understand some of the energies that animate The Nine Lakh Stars, which was the search for acceptable analogue elements of Maṇi Kaul’s high-modernist masterpiece Duvidha (1973) whose soul, she thinks, was erased by its digital mastering. Which is an interesting question to ponder apropos of a film that tells the story of a ghost, who incarnates a young bride’s absent husband... Is the digital the ghost of the analogue?

The Ghosts of Table Mountain

Table Mountain stands isolated - an ancient, rocky beacon of biodiversity amidst the bustling city Cape Town at the south-western tip of Africa. Although humans have altered much of the mountain's ecosystems, it's fairytale gorges and tea-coloured streams are still home to an iconic but elusive amphibian - the Table Mountain Ghost Frog. The Ghosts of Table Mountain reveals the secret life of the Critically Endangered Table Mountain Ghost Frog and other freshwater creatures, and celebrates an inspiring, collaborative effort to restore the mountain's precious freshwater habitats.

Viva la notte

Between the early 1990s and late 2000s, in what can be considered the golden age of Italian disco, a number of people chose to document a swirling, sleepless nightlife. What emerged is a collection of low-definition videos in which flashing lights, pulsating music and dancing bodies merge to become a mass in constant agitation. Viva la notte starts from this material to explore and expand the sense of loss that characterizes it, taking it to a level of abstraction and opacity where the image dissolves similarly to the world that generated it. Forms are lost in the dark and what remains are the evanescent traces of another place, populated by fleeting ghosts in search of perpetual instability.

What is political rhetoric? How is a word embodied? How do we establish a listening ear? These are all questions at the heart of so called politics. And just as decisive, who is talking to whom? For Pauline Bastard, whose projects (films and performances) consist of investigating the real and drawing out fictions that strip it back to its foundations, the 2022 presidential campaign offered the perfect opportunity to do so. Here are the bodies of some – you, me, everyone, in short the ultimate political body in a democracy – who endorse, are taken by the game and sometimes the words already spoken by others – well-known candidates. From one word to another, through the gaps that this authorises as much as the unforeseen associations, the exposure is as enjoyable as it is disconcerting. (Nicolas Feodoroff)
