Los Pilares

Los Pilares is a family home, and also a portrait of the passing of time in one place and in one life, contained in the personal recordings of Antonio García Zarandieta between 1971 and 2018. Around the swimming pool, we get to know each tree, each grandchild that is born, each family celebration, which Antonio films painstakingly while adding a live narration. A film that pauses on the lyric of domestic life, at the same time as, through the past, it investigates a current theme: how what is around us is affected by constant recording, what does it mean to experience each event through the mediation of a device.

¿Qué puede pasar?

Marito is a somewhat immature thirty-something who still lives with his parents. With no job or stable partner, he dedicates all his time to his failed attempts to develop an intelligent drone "that helps improve the quality of life on the planet". His mother wins a trip in a contest and convinces his father to take a few days off and thus make a long-overdue honeymoon. Filled with recommendations, they leave Marito in charge of the family's home and appliance repair shop, which is quite an institution in the neighborhood. By accident, Marito loses the family savings and, together with his best friend Peter, they do everything possible to recover them, while continuing with their original plan to take advantage of the absence of Marito's parents to organize a party with lots of alcohol, no control and "Some girl named Kimberley"

Homo Botanicus

Fifteen years after giving up his studies as a botanist, the filmmaker decides to visit his old professor — Julio Betancur — and returns to the tropical forests of Colombia with Julio and his new disciple, the young Cristian Castro. This reunion launches a voyage that immerses us in doubts over science and the way we see the world, as Julio and Cristian look for their beloved plants in remote forests. Through their work, the film shows us the importance of legacies, and the strength of that ancient bond between master and disciple. Their search also prompts a personal reflection on modern man’s obsession with controlling and mapping nature. In the diverse and nearly infinite world of the tropics, what is the point of counting plants forever?

Una selfie con Timochenko

Juan Pablo, a mid-level official of the Colombian presidency, wants at all costs to get up to Natalia, an actress and television presenter who is far from his possibilities, because this "mommy", he believes, would not notice a guy in wheelchair, unless you give access to the coverage of the news of the moment: the signing of peace. The problem is that Juan Pablo is not even invited to the big event, so he decides to dismantle it by taking it to Rwanda to learn more about the process of reconciliation between Hutus and Tutsis and return to the country in time for the signing and thus achieve, not only in the official photo but "lag" a selfie with Timochenko. That will surely make Natalia fall exhausted to the wheels of her chair.

The Painter

This is the tale of a voyage which began one morning with a Skype conversation between the musician Mikel Urdangarin and the artist Alain Urrutia. The painter will give Mikel one of his paintings as a gift, but on one condition: the musician will have to go and fetch it in London, by ferry, crossing the sea. Taking the journey as an excuse, we will enter the everyday life of an artist committed to living from his work until reaching the key hidden in the centre of every artist’s labyrinth, since all searches are in fact a voyage; the creation process in itself is a voyage.

The Flying Dutchman: Teatro Real Madrid

Spectacular! Opera in three acts. Filmed at a series of outstanding performances at the Teatro Real de Madrid in December 2016, this recording will especially delight lovers of Wagnerian music drama with its faithful reflection of the grandiose staging of Alex Olle, a member of La Fura dels Baus, whose earlier productions have attracted widespread attention. A conductor equally at home in Monteverdi, Boulez, Praetorius and Schumann, Pablo Heras-Casado can rely on a cast totally committed to this breathtaking musical hurricane!

El mercado de la inocencia

Over the last two decades, Medellin has gone from being globally known as a drug traffic and extreme violence destination to becoming a thriving cosmopolitan city. Progress and peace have resulted in an exponential increase of tourism, but have also caused unexpected collateral damage: the rise in sex tourism in this Colombian city. Many of the illegal networks run by foreigners in the United States and Europe, offer Medellin guided tours that include underage prostitutes in their packages available for online purchase.
