              A hand-processed film in which thousands of people climb a rocky mountain terrain. The destination and purpose of their ascension remains unclear. A vague, mysterious and unsettling pilgrimage fraught with unknown intentions. Available online until December 27th 2020.

              There is a glut of wealthy in the city of Saba. Everyone has more than enough. Even the bath stokers wear gold belts. Huge grape clusters hang down on every street and brush the faces of the citizens.

              In 1963, shortly after the independence of Mali, the Tuareg population rose against the new government. Bloodily put down and followed by terrible droughts, this uprising led thousands of Tuareg from Mali and Niger to take refuge in Algeria and Libya. Teshumara, born out of the pain of exile, is a movement affirming Tuareg existence and the need for change. This is when the Tinariwen guitars started to resonate... This film is dedicated to my friend Amadou Aghali.

              Following Nigeria's independence in 1960, the British left the country but multinationals began to proliferate thought the land, specially after the discovery of the region's largest oil well. Agriculture, which had previously given the country a degree of economic equilibrium, was hurt by the agreement between Nigeria's new leaders and foreign investors, which resulted in the expansion of the oil fiends and the destruction of agricultural land. The documentary reflects this situation through the musician and political activist Fela Kuti and his son Fema Kuti. Music is depicted as the awakening of a conscience, as a celebration of life and African roots, and as an indictment of a government that acts as a franchise of western multinationals.

              Documenting the steadfast movement against intellectual property, Part 1 of Steal This Film takes account of the prominent players in the Swedish piracy (copyright infringement) culture: The Pirate Bay, Piratbyrån (Piracy Bureau), and The Pirate Party. It includes a critical analysis of the legal action taken by the Hollywood film industry to leverage economic sanctions by the United States government on Sweden through the WTO, in order to pressure Swedish police into conducting an illegal search and seizure for the purpose of disrupting a competitive distribution channel: The Pirate Bay tracker for P2P Internet file sharing with the BitTorrent protocol.

              Historically, Cauca's indigenous movement has gone through times of war in which it was forced to use the right to civil violent resistance in response to attacks by armed groups. Now, it is a peaceful movement focused on respect for life and everything that makes it possible.

              "I traveled across Mauritania to find a tree that I saw from my window in Belgium. It wasn't a mythical tree, but rather one that could be anywhere. On my way, I met men and women who shared their perception of this quest and in doing so, in a roundabout way they shared some of their visions of the world and existence. For some, my tree was the sign from the spirits, of the invisible or a call from light. For others, it was the symbol of a history, a culture or the end of a period in time. For yet others, it was a tree that you see only when you get lost".

              In Brasil, “Quilombo Country,” a documentary film shot on digital video, provides a portrait of rural communities called “quilombos” in Brazil, which were either founded by runaway slaves or begun from abandoned plantations. As many as 2,000 quilombos exist today. Largely unknown to the outside world, today these communities struggle to preserve a rich heritage born of resistance to oppression.

              Everywhere in the parks and on the river bank of the Osaka river one sees blue tents or barracks covered with blue plastic tarps - at times scattered throughout the park area, sometimes lined up in rows, or united to form small communities. The term homelessness only insufficiently describes the situation of these No-jukusha - the campers in the rough. Without any budget and only the simple camera at the place the reason to start the documentary was the threat of evictions of homeless tents from parks. Now the film is used in Osaka as a tool against new evictions by No-juku-sha, andbecame a vehicle of articulation for those who live outside of the Japanese society.
