Judith Longuet-Marx – BE, 2023, 26′ – VOF st EN
In a retirement home of a small village in the South of France, residents try to build a society in this anonymous environment, often perceived as hostile. What ties do they still manage to forge ? What remedies do they find to cope with loneliness ? What does this reveal about the intimate relationship they have with life as they approach death ?

PECHAR CAIXAS ABRIR CAIXAS (Closed Boxes, Open Boxes)
Hugo Amoedo – BE, ES, 17’ – VOF st EN
Galician writer Xavier Queipo is getting ready to move back to his homeland after more than 30 years of living in Brussels. He empties his house and puts his memories in boxes the removal company loads onto their truck to take them to Spain. Another Galician man, the filmmaker Hugo Amoedo, who is based in Brussels, too, wonders whether and when he’ll be back in his homeland. In the meantime, he teaches his son to ride a bike, wonders, dreams, struggles to unravel ideas for films, and argues with the clerks of the Brussels post.

LOVEBOARD
Felipe Casanova – CH, BE, 2023, 17′ – VOF st EN
A broken phone and the digital memory of a broken relationship. Both fragile, both recomposed to reveal the fragments of a first love that seems to fade away. Through the careful manipulation of discarnate metal components and the warm director’s look on a found intimate archive, a parallel movement of lingering and resistance against the ephemeral. A playful reflection on what remains.
