From Unseen Corners. The 30 Films in the Main Programme of the 54th Forum
The relationship between political awareness and cinematic form and that between social conscience and independent film, the diverse ways in which world knowledge as well as the grotesque nature of reality can be experienced and the reasons why complex floral formulas, vertical graves and the most determined women are often to be found in the most unseen corners of the globe: the 30 films from 30 countries that make up the main programme of the 54th Forum show all this and more.

Distant Connections
Communities and the convoluted ways in which they end up having to live in order to secure their continued existence are the pulse of this year’s programme. Their constitution, the breaking points they face and the constraints to which they are exposed evoke solidarity, cohesion and hope. In the films of this year’s programme, everyday objects and materials become metaphorically repurposed as a means of exploring hidden networks whose multifaceted nodes become visible in unexpected places.
