However, some of them are used by pharmaceutic and food companies to produce agar powder. The nearby factories producing canned fish and phosphate fertilizer pollute water and air.

Escuela de Corte - Last Time We Play Hooky
Brothers from the lower east side play hooky, for the last time. The film was created from a film started, but abandoned after a fire gutted the 5 story tenement building that housed the actors on the 2nd floor and the film studio of the fifth. The week before there was a murder of a tenant on the 4th floor. There was a sort of turf war between the hells angels who lived across the street and the film over an empty lot next door. A documentary film, "Making HOOKY" 1997, and book of Photographs, STREET SHOTS HOOKY, explains bette what happened. But in 2021 a beginning and ending was written and edited using other existing footage from the same time and place. Damaged film from the original production was digitally restored, which I never thought would be possible, and an entirely new narrative film created in 2022.

NARC. Mini-Doc - Magic Hat Cafe: Building A Sustainable Community
Evie Lake introduces The Magic Hat Cafe, an anti-food waste cafe in Newcastle. In today’s climate, it’s hard not to worry about waste. Not just our own, but that of supermarkets and suppliers. Is every carrot, potato and piece of meat going to be used? What happens if they’re not? Magic Hat acts on these worries and turns would-be-wasted produce into meals and experiences for people to enjoy.
Magic Hat is an innovative and progressive organisation in the way that it puts people first. Instead of purchasing your coffee and food, there’s an option to pay it back by working for them for a few hours. They also let people volunteer to learn new skills, to make themselves more employable and, in addition to being an environmentally conscious operation which eradicates waste in their supply chain, their sustainability also feeds directly into the community through food bank donations, education and delicious food.

Espera & Sedimento
An empty house. A journey through the corners of a space occupied by three generations of women. Through her family history, the author examines the relationships between the steel industry and the women who coexisted with it, as well as the imprint left by industrialization in the domestic sphere. The film is presented as a sort of archaeological investigation of workers' housing, where empty rooms or inert objects are the only elements that make up the image. In this process, the trace of an ideology of domesticity linked to the figure of the Angel of the Home emerges - whose origin dates back to the end of the 19th century - and which collides with the mentality of the new generations. By questioning forms of patriarchal domination as strongly rooted as the family institution or the idea of home, the film opens a space for the depatriarchalization of memory.
Ideia Para um Filme
'Is this a movie? Can this be considered a movie? Dude, you don't know how to do it!'
(((O)))
A snooze alarm clock cannot wake a sleepy person. The bell of the alarm clock hence becomes a hypnotic trigger. Such an ordinary sound is redefined in our drowsy moments, and we are also liberated from the sounds that condition our lives—queue management systems, electric scooters, air raid drills, and public demonstrations. These sounds are released from the soft soil of our consciousness and grow into a new scene. And we sail with those who cannot be awakened on a boat drifting off course into a new realm projected by frequency. This is a film you can watch with your eyes closed.
