DROP BY SOMETIME, Director Kosara Mitic | Ex Repubblica Jugoslava di Macedonia, FYROM, 2013 |14´
Amy is in charge of the
store that night. She is a young sales woman dressed in old fashioned clothes.
As every other night she is helping the customers in the wee hours, unaware of
the danger that lurks near-by. The film starts as a typical thriller, a tense
atmosphere, fake parameters that lead the viewers to believe they’ll witness a
crime, giving it a new psychologically and sexually exciting dimension,
immediately after the twist, turning it into a true and sincere romance at the
end.

While tracking up on a
mountain, two hikers find the massacred body of 7-year old girl, Camellia.
Detective Veli investigates the monstrous crime with the help of the girl’s
father, Mr. Herman. Of all the strange things that surround the investigation,
the strangest one is that, although there are traces of Camellia’s blood on the
crime scene, there are no human remains. The only clue Detective Veli has is a
sample of pubic hair that was found on the crime scene.
The evidence is not the
only puzzling thing in this case. Mr. Herman’s behavior fluctuates from
obsession with his daughter’s death, to a resignation to die himself. The absence
of a body also means that – there is no murder to investigate. The last straw
for Detective Veli is the revelation that the found hair actually belongs to a
woman, and not just any woman, but it completely matches the DNA profile of young
Camellia. This revelation gives Veli a headache: Camellia is too young to have
pubic hair.
Now Detective Veli starts
looking at a different scenario: What if the real victim in this case is not
the daughter, but the father?

which states that for every German soldier killed, one hundred civilians have
to be executed.
The story is based on true events.

Gando,
un piccolo villaggio nelle campagne del Burkina Faso, accoglie ed ospita per un
periodo di sei settimane un gruppo di studenti dell’Accademia di architettura
di Mendrisio al seguito del loro insegnante, l’architetto africano Diébédo
Francis Kéré. Durante questo workshop lavorano e vivono a stretto contatto con
la realtà del villaggio, elaborano e gettano le basi di un edificio utilizzando
le risorse locali disponibili coadiuvati dall’intera popolazione della regione.
La
principale attività del compound è l’approvvigionamento d’acqua, elemento
imprescindibile per la vita della comunità. Ai pozzi si avvicendano senza sosta
donne, uomini e bambini dalle prime luci dell’alba sino al tramonto.
Gli
studenti si miscelano armoniosamente a questa realtà lontana e diversa
divenendone parte integrante. Una lettura poetica di un’esperienza di scambio
interculturale, descritta e raccontata in immagini e musica.

Darling which

director.
Cinematographer Radislav Jovanov Gonzo won the best camera award on the

Two kids at the top of a skyscraper. A view of
the sea. He is Tom Sawyer and she is Alice in Wonderland. They walk along the
edge of the roof, doing everything they’re not supposed to. In that hot summer,
left under the care of her grandma, she will feel love for the first time.
Luckily, grandma doesn’t have a clue about it,
she barely leaves the apartment. Her parents are absent, they talk over phone
and we can notice that they’re hiding something.
At the top of the skyscraper there are no
hidden thoughts, it’s sunny and warm. Little Darling spends days with Zane, the
boy she likes. The days seem to be like an idyl until two older girls appear
and start to occupy Zane’s attention.

ZONA MULINI NUOVI Cristina Bergamini,
Giuliano Garagnani, Italia 2014 | 36´
Attraversata
la zona industriale nord di Modena, superata qualche rotatoria assieme ai
camion che vanno ai mulini industriali, subito dopo la ferrovia, nascosta dai
pioppi c'è una vecchia casa di campagna costruita con i mattoni uno sull'altro,
senza cemento, costruita per accogliere i braccianti stagionali che lavoravano
le terre costeggiate dal Naviglio. Dopo la guerra si trasforma in condominio,
affittuari invece dei contadini popolano questa “casa paese” dove nascono
sempre nuove storie di aggregazione, mentre all'intorno dilaga la periferia
diffusa.
Luca
proprietario “filosofo” con l'amore per la vita di una volta è l'anfitrione di
un microcosmo con le sue regole e le sue contraddizioni che diventa un mondo in
alternativa al mondo là fuori.
La
casa con la sua architettura immutata continua, come in un tempo sospeso, ad
ospitare gli inquilini e le loro storie.
