A film-document that explores the foundations of new colonialism on Africa. A searing indictment of World Bank monetary policies of forced eviction and exclusion. The story takes place in a poor quarter of Bamako and features a fictitious mock-trial with the participation of many people who “legally” challenge the World Bank.

A poetic documentary that weaves together a mosaic of encounters, observations and reflections from Jeff Silva's travels through war-torn Serbia and Kosovo. The rhapsodic structure destabilizes linear time, highlighting the fragmentation of time, memory and history and its metaphoric implications of what became of the Former Yugoslavia. The collection of detritus and shards of memories, evidence, and experiences builds to a melodic echo that resonates with the absurdity of the situation and reflects a political and social imperative beyond the conflicts in Yugoslavia into of our present day crises.

A proposal in four phases (an overture and three movements) based on four fluid phase transitions (three experiences and one fantasized), related to four periods on the establishment of a proposal. Mainly based on communicating vessels and fluid mechanics, the proposal becomes a fanciful attempt to a phenomenological topology of thoughts based on observable chemical phenomenon. The proposal asserts a contextual formulation of human status, providing a way to sublimate it. The proposed analysis can also be applied on the relationship between the viewer and the proposal, the viewer and the world, the proposal and the world, the viewer and the narrator, the narrator and the proposal, and so on... as a tautological and metalinguistic system. Is the validity of an observation giving value to the manner in which one conceptualize it? Do human have the ability to think “a priori”? Is human able to “precede” the real' What is the value of a theory, a certainty, established in such a state? Is the “regression to the infinite” a paradigm? Do human have the ability to reason “a priori”? Is human able to “precede” the real'

September 11, 2001 ushered in a new world order that extended to the age-old practice of torture. In this new paradigm, torture is seen as necessary – and therefore justifiable – in the war against terrorism. Furthermore, victims have no rights, they do not exist for legal purposes and can simply disappear in long secret flights to unknown destinations. This documentary traces the story of some survivors of this globalised torture who spent time in places like Abu Ghraib, Bagram, and Guantanamo. And for those who still think that the Abu Ghraib photos were a one-off situation, an isolated case, it takes us on a journey back in time, to Argentina and Guatemala, and even to the Middle Ages and the Holy Inquisition.

A film about a community that lives in a cemetery in Manila. Rural poverty combined with a terribly overcrowded capital explain why many thousands of families have taken to squatting in the city's cemeteries. Overcrowding has forced the community to build their tarpaulin and bamboo houses among the tombs and also out into the sea. The residents have not only made the cemetery their home but in many cases their place of work. This film reveals their problems, jobs, sense of community and hopes for the future.
