SUMMARY:Colonial Crime Scenes
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_text_separator title=”Program” color=”white” el_class=”h1″][vc_custom_heading text=”AEQUADOR” font_container=”tag:h1|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_custom_heading text=”Laura Huertas Millán\, Colombia\, 2011\, 19 min” font_container=”tag:p|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]A journey upstream the Amazon River where Modernist constructions have been abandoned like the memories of an engulfed civilization of the future. Aequador is a science-fiction documentary evoking the colonization of nature\, former utopias in Latin American forests\, and their cohabitation with the present.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_custom_heading text=”THIS UNWIELDY OBJECT” font_container=”tag:h1|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_custom_heading text=” Anna Zett\, Germany / USA\, 47 min” font_container=”tag:p|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]In the trans-genre film This Unwieldy Object dig sites become crime scenes\, and fossils turn into characters\, determined to play a main part in the violent history of the American Frontier. You follow the protagonist on a road trip into the dusty heart of the USA\, where fossil traders\, sculptors and scientists are trying to reconstruct the plot of natural history\, the plot of progress. The story ends in the middle.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_custom_heading text=”JOURNEY TO A LAND OTHERWISE KNOWN\n” font_container=”tag:h1|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_custom_heading text=”Laura Huertas Millán\, Colombia\, 2011\, 23 min” font_container=”tag:p|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]In a film\, meeting a strange tribe often starts with the plunging view from a building necessary to the journey. The architecture of Jean-Pierre Secq dubbed the noise of the waves washes over us in this way. However\, to open it\, the construction was massive and still\, unfolding the three concrete wings of this equatorial greenhouse in Lille. This essay on the conquest of America assumes its own contradiction\, underlined by a montage of texts by colonisers: Bernal Diaz del Castillo\, Hans Staden\, Jean de Léry\, Charles de la Condamine and the use of costumes and masks inspired by Brazilian modernism. The discovery of a new world conducted in slow motion listening to the minutes of an unlikely trial of the invaders. The most restrained of movements\, surplus\, to make the most of rediscovering the New World.

The film premiered at FIDMarseille 2016 and was awarded a Grand Prix Special Mention in the French competition; it was also awarded a Grand Prix Honorable Mention at Doclisboa 2016 where it internationally premiered. The film will be part of the Neighboring Scenes: New Latin American cinema 2017 at the Lincoln Center in New York. \nHer previous short films draw from the ethnography imageries and propose decolonializing surrealistic tales in between facts and fiction. Her films have screened in cinema festivals (Torino\, Ficunam\, Curtas Vila do Conde\, Tampere\, Winterthur\, Videobrasil\, Bienal de la Imagen en Movimiento) and art venues (Guggenheim NY\, Museo de Arte Moderno de Buenos Aires\, LABORAL Gijón\, Lugar a Dudas\, Villa Arson…)[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
