Se arrienda

dir. Alberto Fuguet

Chile, 2005 - 109

The end of the 80’s - the young musician Gaston Fernandez has a bright future in front of him. Fifteen years later, destiny and life’s options have separated. Gaston returns from the U.S. to Chile, confronting the reality of a different country and the frustration of an artistic success that never materialized. His friends from the past enjoy the new, developed Chile and their own prosperity, but he thinks they have lost out. Gaston maintains the idealism, the intransigence and the dreams of his youth. He starts missing the good old days. Obligated by circumstances, he has to start working in his father’s real estate agency. The film reflects the profound change suffered by Chile in the past 15 years, and how this change has affected a group of friends and the Chilean population in general.

John & Jane

dir. Ashim Ahluwalia

India, 2005 - 83

A documentary about young Indians who become Americans at night. An astonishing look at the souls of the outsourced. They work in offshore call centres. They pitch products and soothe frayed consumer nerves. As they troubleshoot, they dream of America. As they dream, they change. The lives depicted here are real. These people have taken Western names. They sleep during the daytime and work in the middle of their night, following American business hours. None of them has ever left India. As part of their training, they learn the meanings that work, money and God hold for Americans. Some begin to adopt American values as their own. One dreams of buying his own Spanish-style villa. Another notes, “Everyone who’s ever gone to America gets rich.” When their shifts end, they go back to their traditional, modest, Indian homes.

The Carnival of The Animals (completed film)

The Carnival of The Animals (completed film)

Karneval zvířat

dir. Michaela Pavlatova

Czechia, 2006 - 12

SYNOPSIS: Animated musical erotic fantasy. The film consists of separate sequences, each of them accompanied by individual musical movements of Mr. Saint-Saens’s composition. The first movement Introduction et Marche royale du Lion introduces men and women in their archetypes, man – a hunter – a lion, woman – a prey – a doe. The next part Poules et Coqs observes the first signs of interest in the other sex. To the fast tempo of Hémiones there is a swift film montage of alternating faces, body parts and partners. Aquarium brings us to the bedrooms with lone sleepers, into dreaming fantasies. The part called Personnages á longues oreilles concentrates on failures in love. In the Voliére, birds fly through a sunny park. Le Cygne allows us to take a look into the fantasies and desires of lonely ladies and gentlemen. All protagonists of the preceding movements come together again in the final movement Final, which is a frivolous and joyful bacchanalia, a celebration with fireworks.
