Aphasia is about the meaning of language and discourse in contemporary relations. it starts with a provocation, the language works as a tool of power from the spectrum of politics until the micro-politics of human relations. so the question remains: what happens when language is saturated, or spayed, or exceeded? how do we react? the choice to investigate the feminine universe results in three parallel narratives: one stroke, one cochlear implant, one grunt work.

October 5th - 16th 2011
We present film series focused on different countries and regions. This section intends to discover and explore different spaces and cultures with the aim to understand the specific regional, political and social circumstances, do reconstruct the emotional and intellectual spécificities of a special region or country. In this critical work we belief it's essencial to prefer films which rufuse, in its form and expression, the retake of sterotype ways of reality restituition, as an act of resistance in the actual period of "globalisation", which inclins to impose one dominating model of culture and habitutes..
