Bingo of Borrowed Spaces
Bingo of Borrowed Spaces
Through an experimental method of spectating the spectator, the audience watches two young people who are sitting and watching a projection of photographs of public spaces, in moments when these spaces are empty or abandoned, when they can become intimate, followed by a voiceover of two older people reminiscing of topics of alienation and transience of belonging, of taken or borrowed, of given or landed, of personal experience in a world where a complete affiliation never truly exists.

Handbook
Handbook
A felicitous and at the same time almost unbearable cinematic experimental set-up that uses documentary means to show what the Belarusian reality behind the news items looks like. Based on eyewitness accounts, Pavel Mozhar re-stages Lukashenko’s perfidious and oppression-based power system. Violence in the shape of detailed reconstructions may seem abstract at first glance but drills itself into our consciousness all the more persistently in the course of the film.

Elena
Elena
In 1937, tens of thousands of Haitians and Dominicans of Haitian descent were exterminated by the Dominican army, on the basis of anti-black racism. Fast-forward to 2013, the Dominican Republic's Supreme Court stripped the citizenship of anyone with Haitian parents, retroactive to 1929, rendering more than 200,000 people stateless. Elena, the young protagonist of the film, and her family stand to lose their legal residency in the Dominican Republic if they don't manage to get their documents in time. Negotiating a mountain of opaque bureaucratic processes and a racist, hostile society around, Elena becomes the face of the struggle to remain in a country built on the labor of her father and forefathers.
