Some Days

 

Yuanliang Wu
China / 2025 / 0:17:53


A mother moves through a single exhausting day—migrating like a bird between commuter trains, hospitals, and two households, only to find herself a stranger in every place she calls home.









 

The Moon Also Rises

 

Yuyan Wang
France / 2024 / 0:24:00


Artificial moons are going to be launched into space to eliminate the difference between day and night. An elderly couple retreats into their apartment, isolated from nature and the outside world. They follow their daily routines lit by neon lights and digital devices. A voice that seems to come from nowhere is their constant companion. “Breathe in,” it says, “breathe out. Time is just a feeling. Everything will be okay.”



 

Exit Through the Cuckoo's Nest

 

Nikola Ilic
Switzerland / 2024 / 0:19:10


This personal short documentary tells the story of a soldier who never wanted to be one. His decision never to pull a trigger led to resistance and ultimately to military prison. Pretending to be mentally ill, he leaves the war zone and returns to Belgrade via the insane asylum. On the day NATO begins bombing the entire country.



 

The Canon

 

Martín Seeger
Chile / 2024 / 0:19:00


Jean, a Haitian migrant in Chile, is admired everywhere he goes. His body represents all the classical values of the academy. However, in the anonymity of his existence, he is also a canon of marginality.


PARIS PREMIERE




 

Vox humana

 

Don Josephus, Raphael Eblahan
Philippines, USA, Singapore / 2024 / 0:22:00


In the aftermath of an earthquake, the police find a man in the woods. A zoologist, a sound recorder, and a news team grapple with the truth that he may be the cause of all the natural disasters that devastated this small mountain town.
