Brotherhhod – Meryam Joobeur
\nSeen by Margherita Fontana<\/em><\/span><\/h5>\n

What does brotherhood mean? Which is our family? Where do we belong? Which is our religion? These are crucial questions that Brotherhood by Meryam Joobeur asks us. As his elder son Malik comes back home in Tunisia, after the war in Syria, Mohamed\u2019s heart and mind are riddled with
\ndoubts. Brotherhood shows us the contradictions that destroy religious and family bonds during this contemporary war with attention, avoiding sentimentalisms.[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https:\/\/vimeo.com\/363649438″ el_width=”80″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”20″][vc_column_text]\n

Je sors acheter des cigarettes – Osman Cerfon
\nSeen by Elena Saltarelli<\/em><\/span><\/h5>\n

This animated short film, whose director is the French Osman Cerfon, sees as main character a young boy living with his mother and his sister, together with many hidden men. The boy has an ambiguous relationship with them, a relationship built on teasing as well as helping. These men
\nhave many faces and many personalities, and they are not going to leave until he gives a face on that hulking absence which is filling the apartment.
\nThis short film amazingly succeeds in making bittersweet and assimilable a complex and extremely heavy theme such as that of paternal absence. Each character, in his own way, tries to give this a meaning and to live together with this emotional void, replacing it with something different, with waiting, with vain hope. Rich in allusions and suggestions, such as the recurrent references to Ren\u00e9 Magritte, a great painter of paranoia and dormant suffering, this work is confirmed as one of the most interesting and multifaceted short film in selection.[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=QOr39LLPuLw” el_width=”80″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”20″][vc_column_text]\n

O \u00d3rf\u00e3o – Carolina Markowicz
\nSeen by Elena Saltarelli<\/em><\/span><\/h5>\n

About rejection and discrimination. These are the main topics of Carolina Markowitz\u2019s short film, a Brazilian director who wanted to tell the real story of Jonathas, a young boy who was rejected by his foster family because of his feminine behavior. Without any rhetoric, this film succeeds in recounting the suffering provoked by the disgusting skittishness wherewith the couple gets rid of a newly adopted boy. The acting skills of the young protagonist are extremely touching as he manages to convey the idea of a dignity which outdoes cowardice and the evils of the world.
\n\u201cThat was meant to be \u2013 forget it\u201d is a mantra that brings him back to the orphanages\u2019 world, populated by the many outcasts with whom he\u2019s growing up and moulding himself. This short film proves that a family is where you are loved, no matter where you are.[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https:\/\/vimeo.com\/377193784″ el_width=”80″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”20″][vc_column_text]\n

Sog – Jonatan Schwenk
\nSeen by Yorgos Kostianis<\/em><\/span><\/h5>\n

After a disastrous flood a school of fish drift away and get stuck on old trees. The drier they get, the louder their harrowing screams get, waking up the local cave dwellers who don\u2019t take too kindly to their intrusion.
\nDirected and animated by Jonathan Schwenk, Sog<\/em> is a hybrid animation featuring no dialogue but with strong metaphoric undertones alluding to the migrant crisis and on how people deal with strangers.[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https:\/\/vimeo.com\/319459960″ el_width=”80″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”20″][vc_column_text]\n

Feathers \u2013\u00a0 A.V. Rockwell
\nSeen by Yorgos Kostianis<\/em><\/span><\/h5>\n

Award-winning filmmaker and Sundance Institute Feature Film fellow A.V. Rockwell \u2019s short is a love letter to black boys, the adverse psychological effects of racism, and how to heal those wounds in modern society.
\nThe film focuses on Elizier, an emotionally dejected new enrollee at The Edward R. Mill School for Boys, must overcome memories of a tragic past and the present hazing by his peers in order to tackle larger issues dominating his young life.[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https:\/\/vimeo.com\/368427272″ el_width=”80″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”20″][vc_column_text]\n

The Boogeywoman – Erica Scoggins
\nSeen by Vanessa Mangiavacca<\/em><\/span><\/h5>\n

That of Erica Scoggins is a provocative dark story about adolescence:\u00a0Sam\u2019s first period merges in\u00a0fact with a local legend, that of the Boogeywoman. The woman\u2019s\u00a0development is surrounded by an aura of myths, nourished over the centuries, which always\u00a0defined\u00a0this phenomenon \u201cdemonic\u201d. The \u201cBoogeyman\u201d we were always told about changes now\u00a0sex,\u00a0becoming a sort of XXI century Lilith, who came just to have her revenge. Every woman has\u00a0her\u00a0Boogeywoman, a dark side which is both damnation and salvation. This short film is a homage\u00a0to\u00a0the power of female seduction, as well as the awareness that is our only the weapon to bend\u00a0the\u00a0patriarchy.[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/ZeaSXo6RfIw” el_width=”80″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”20″][vc_column_text]\n

Journal Anim\u00e9 – Donato Sansone
\nSeen by Vanessa Mangiavacca<\/em><\/span><\/h5>\n

Journal Anim\u00e8<\/em> has a peculiar genesis: after the massacre of January 15, 2015 at the Charlie Hebdo headquarters, the French television company Canal + commissioned Sansone a series of\u00a0animated videos about the freedom of expression. The expanded pen of Sansone draws on the
\nimages of a French newspaper, acting as we all have done at least once. Fiction and reality are the\u00a0two languages \u200b\u200bof this work, two opposites with no boundaries, especially if compared with the fast and chaotic magma that is today information. New portraits jump from one page to another, looking for an alternative in the incongruous social daily\u00a0babel. Nothing is saved in the fresh sansoniana<\/em> satire.[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https:\/\/vimeo.com\/191631752″ el_width=”80″][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”20″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
