ICE MERCHANTS
by João Gonzalez (14′, Portugal, 2022)

The classic relationship between father – son, gutted countless times, is told in a new and surprising way. A technique, a rhythm, a stunning twist, capable of arousing intense emotional involvement. Also absolutely fascinating is the integration of a current theme, such as that of climate change, used here to describe the inner storms of humanity

SE PROPRIO DEVO
by Mara Cerri (03'38, Italy, 2021)

Visual, oral, written reports. This music video finds its poetic figure in simplicity. Daily glimpses, the soccer field, the open construction sites, the shutters. A delicate black and white accompany a mature and thoughtful piece of music. A video designed and created with the heart.
