In the Light of the Sands

As a bird warden, Kilian spends seven months alone on a barrier island in the Heligoland Bight. His tasks are simple: monitoring wildlife and collecting flotsam. The rich birdlife, extreme weather and ever-changing landscape are conveyed both through imagery and a soundtrack of wind, rain and birdsong. Contact with others is rare, but the intrusion of the outside world is all the more striking. The film’s melancholic atmosphere echoes both solitude and a sense that this fragile sanctuary is deeply at risk. Beyond its precise observations, an essay on climate change and militarisation emerges.

Fuggiamo lontano

Developed with ten students from JFK in Monselice, drawn from their second and third year high school classes specializing in agricultural and computer science, Fuggiamo lontano (Let's Run Away) is a film based entirely on archive material that tells the story of a journey through four stories of teenagers who imagine going to the place of their dreams with a loved one by their side: their dog, their brother, their mother, and their friend. The voices of Sara, Matteo, Serena, and Alessandro intertwine with seemingly distant images, triggering a space-time collision in which feelings explode out of time.

Frether Warmak, a private investigator with thirty years of experience, is called to the scene of an apparent homicide: a dog-sitter has been found dead in her home, the front door wide open and every dog she was caring for gone without a trace. Accompanied by his young partner Lucas Mancini, he begins interviewing witnesses — none of whom turn out to be particularly reliable. With no solid leads, Frether reluctantly steps away from the case, until a chance encounter on the street puts him face to face with a crucial, unexpected clue.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
