A Room in Bangkok

 

Javier Olivera
Spain / 2025 / 0:20:00


Through the grainy, fleeting frames of Super 8 film reels, the filmmaker revisits a childhood trip to Asia, where her father’s business partner—a constant presence in their lives—captured a family's narrative through his lens. Haunted by a persistent suspicion of a long-forgotten night in a Bangkok hotel room, the narrator embarks on a journey of recollection, grappling with fragmentary memories, traumatic energies and power of oblivion.

Iran / 2026 / 0:19:51


"Prehistoric" follows Nina, who refuses to accept her partner’s death, still seeking the validation he once gave. As she prepares for a demanding theater performance that eerily mirrors her life, the line between stage and reality blurs. Through this act, she sheds her dependence on his memory and for the first time, embraces her own power.
