• “Les Dormants“ by Pierre-Yves Vanderweerd , 65’ (Belgium) (2009). VO. French. Subtitles in Spanish.

The four stories in this film transports us from Belgium to the banks of the Senegal River, from the French Ardennes to the mountains of the Western Sahara.

What they have in common is that they lead us to meet the sleepers. Men and women moving between two worlds, that of the absent and that of the living, between two states, that of awake and that of sleep.

In each of these stories lies a mystery free from all belief, all philosophy, all attempts at explanation. A mystery capable of re-enchanting the reality.

• “La vida en armonia” by Toni Serra *) Abu Ali, 15’ (Morocco) (2018). VO. Arabic. Subtitles in Spanish.

A conversation with a woman who washes and massages the women who go to the hammam (public baths), helps bring the neighbourhood children into the world, and to wash the dead.

“Do not be sad, my son, you are destined to fall in love.” An intervention-reading of a concert by Egyptian musician Abdelhalim el Hafiz, performing The Fortune Teller by the poet Nizar Qabbani. "My son you are 10 years old, I look at the life you have ahead of you and today it gives me vertigo. But it is not fair, perhaps because I am seeing it from my decline, I no longer have the drive that is becoming strong in you now, that is growing every day; this whirlwind of dust, but also of beauty that will take your life, like ours, like a leaf in the wind. Perhaps it was you and Yasmin who recently crossed the dense city sky... I remember as if it were yesterday in the wastelands, you picked up a translucent stone that shone in the sun when you showed it to me and now I know that you are that star you were holding in your hands".

A thundering diatribe against the abuses of capital and the language, the presence of the body-thing.

One of the tapes of Anne Charlotte Robertson’s five-year-old diary, a cathartic, devastating, delicate and meditative story. The extraordinarily frank and revealing self-portrait of an artist and a woman struggling to understand the dark desires and shadows that define her world.

"Being photographed is the only way to cheat death? I remember the camera we use when we fucked for the first time. You said this way our love will never end. But now I never see you, only on TV. " OVNI 2000 Community 6th Independent Vídeo & Interactive Phenomena Show
