Americana

Cette compétition dresse le portrait d’une Amérique centrale et latine forte, qui, malgré le manque de soutien des institutions, arrive à faire des miracles avec peu. Pensons à Aferrado, un film d’animation qui transcende son médium pour arriver à nous faire sentir l’atmosphère colorée et chaotique des rues fourmillantes de Mexico. À l’opposé, Buscando un burro nous transporte dans un village reclus des Andes vénézuéliennes, où la loi du silence règne après que deux hommes furent emprisonnés pour avoir filmé un âne. Puis, aux confins des eaux dangereuses de l’Amazonie colombienne, Lanawaru met en lumière les rituels sacrés à travers lesquels les communautés autochtones de Puerto Caimán maintiennent une relation équilibrée entre l’homme et la nature. Basée sur des faits réels, l’histoire d’amour tragique d’Olivia rappelle la violence des manifestations du peuple bolivien en réponse au système de dictature des années 70. Sur une note plus légère, Servicio necrológico para usted dresse le sympathique portrait d’un couple cubain, qui tient la maison funéraire du village dans le foyer qui abrite aussi leur amour. Et c’est au Panama que le voyage prend fin, sous l’humour décalé de Panadrillo, qui raconte l’histoire invraisemblable d’une femme dont le mari s’est transformé en crocodile parlant. Voilà un riche aperçu d’une cinématographie qui aborde avec humour et conviction les enjeux actuels et historiques du sud du continent.

Sorcelleries

À travers les visages de la sorcellerie, du spirituel et de la magie se dessinent les marges de nos sociétés. Perçues comme une transgression de l’ordre établi, ces figures incarnent des forces mystérieuses puisant leur puissance dans des espaces indomptés, souvent liés à la nature, qui échappent ainsi au contrôle humain. Enraciné dans la Bosnie de l’Est, A sad se spusta vece témoigne du soin mutuel que s’apportent deux vieilles femmes dans leur quotidien rythmé par le travail de la terre, les troupeaux et le cycle immuable et incontrôlable des éléments. Et c’est justement des territoires sauvages que l’on veut priver les femmes de Nocturno para uma floresta, qui n’ont plus accès à une partie de la forêt. Au cœur de la nuit, où seules les âmes éclairent l’obscurité, elles construisent alors leur propre royaume invisible. Dans On and on and on, un aîné Mi’kmaq partage une prophétie sombre concernant l’avenir de l’écologie globale. De Gallo Qui Ovavit explore l’histoire mythique des coqs qui pondent des œufs, perçus à travers les âges comme des créatures monstrueuses, des symboles sataniques. Le déjanté Which is Witch? raconte l’histoire de trois sœurs sorcières qui tentent de décongeler un inconnu. Tout ne se passe pas toujours comme prévu dans Whitch, et Luc je suis ton père nous ramène aux angoisses d’un cinéaste qui fait appel à une médium. Bien que chaque culture possède ses propres codes spirituels, ce programme offre une brève incursion dans les mondes visibles et invisibles. Comme une berceuse envoûtante, ponctuée de rituels, d’incantations et de cérémonies.

Americana

This competition takes a critical look at a strong Latin America that, despite the absence of institutional support, makes cinematic miracles with very few resources. Aferrado is one such film, an animated work that transcends its medium to make us feel the colourful and chaotic atmosphere of Mexico City’s bustling streets. Buscando un burro stands in contrast, transporting us to a remote village in the Venezuelan Andes, where the code of silence reigns after two young men are imprisoned for filming a donkey. Then, by the perilous waters of the Colombian Amazon, Lanawaru highlights the sacred rituals through which the Indigenous communities of Puerto Caimán sustain a balanced relationship with nature. Based on a true story, the tragic romance of Olivia recalls the Bolivian people’s violent demonstrations against the country’s dictatorship in the 1970s. On a lighter note, Servicio necrológico para usted is an engaging portrait of a Cuban couple who run a village funeral parlour from their home. Our journey ends in Panama, with the wry humour of Panadrillo, which tells the bizarre tale of a woman whose husband mutates into a talking crocodile. It all adds up to a rich overview of a regional cinema that approaches the Latin south’s current issues and historical legacies with humour and conviction.

Witcheries

Through the faces of sorcery, spirituality and magic, we glimpse the margins of our societies. Seen as transgressive against the status quo, these figures embody mysterious forces that draw strength from untamed spaces, often linked to nature and outside human control. Set in eastern Bosnia, A sad se spusta vece testifies to mutual support two old women give each other day after day, their lives punctuated by working the soil, herding livestock and the immutable and uncontrollable cycles of the elements. It is the wilderness that they try to take away from women in Nocturno para uma floresta – they are blocked from part of the forest. In the dead of night, when only auras provide light in the dark, they build their own invisible realm. In On and on and on, a Mi’kmaq elder shares a dark prophecy concerning the future of the global ecosystem. De Gallo Qui Ovavit explores the mythical story of roosters that lay eggs, seen through the ages as monstrous creatures or satanic symbols. The eccentric Which is Witch? tells the story of three sisters, all witches, who try to thaw out a stranger. Things don’t always go according to plan in Whitch, and Luc je suis ton père looks into the anxieties of a filmmaker who calls upon a medium for advice. Although every culture has its own spiritual codes, this program offers a brief look at visible and invisible worlds. It’s like a mesmerizing rocking chair – with rituals, incantations and ceremonies.
