OB SCENE

r.PALOMA ORLANDINI CASTRO
Argentine
26'

A chronological autobiography of the filmmaker’s becoming and of sexual awakening, “OB SCENE” melds personal and political, experience and science, and observation with dry humor in a poignant essay about the act of accommodating one’s own body and sexuality.

A poignant personal essay with a style infused with dry humour and self-irony, “OB SCENE” is a glimpse into the world of a young woman who tries to match up her experience of embodiment and sexuality against a set of strict definitions – originating in fields ranging from medicine to pornography. The knowledge that Orlandini hails from a family of doctors in the fields of sexology and psychology is more than a simple fun fact, underlining also the backdrop for the film’s subtle conflict: how does one relate to rigorous classifications of genders and bodies when one’s own is outside the norm? (Flavia Dima)

LACERATE

r.Janis Rafa | Durata 16'

A splendorous and apparently deserted villa is overrun by a pack of dogs. In the vacuum that is borne in the moments immediately following an act of violence, the still live tableaus are revived through the sheer force of animalism.

SYCORAX

r.Lois Patiño, Matías Piñeiro | Durata 20'

A production of Shakespeare’s “The Tempest” searches for an unprofessional actress for the role of Sycorax, one of the play’s unseen characters. In this process, the mythological being that entrapped Ariel finally gains her voice in the Azorean landscape.
