Works of any genre and nationality. A section that focuses on the search for new filmmaking signatures.

Trees are the silent characters, narrating the architecture and life of Churchill College (opened in 1960) through its natural history.

"Go outside. The lovely mountains two, Sermitsiaq and Kingittorsuaq, look at them.” While the landscape acts as a scenery for collective nostalgia and city development in Nuuk, Greenland, the film studies glitches in translation of language and culture in a post-colonial modernity.

Gushing colors. A time disjointed, yet synchronous. A transcendent turn, a quest for action, a reunion with currents of the forest.
