The short documentary portrays four gravediggers from Pasay City
Cemetery and their work constructing “Duterte Compund”, a new
government funded grave-complex for the victims of Tokhang – Duterte’s
so-called war on drugs. In the slums, everyone is a suspected drug
addict.

Over the Limit shows how the successful Russian system for training
athletes transgresses boundaries. Elite rhythmic gymnast Rita Mamun
has reached a crucial moment in her career. She’s soon to retire, but
has one final goal set out for her: winning Olympic gold. A
nail-biting behind-the-scenes drama about the intense physical and
mental labor put into a sport that thrives on its beautiful
aesthetics.

October 4 - 14, 2018
An international jury overview the sections of short films coming from all over the world. We prefer documentaries which succeed in representing the complexity of reality and discover in a new way its sensible and perturbing aspects on the same time accentuating the ambivalent and enigmatic status of reality in avoiding sterotypes and simplifing conclusions.
