A man and a woman in one room, …the sounds that arrive from outside, …the gestures, the words, the things shared, …the moods of the woman and the man, …are the nomadic edge of the nature of that relation.

Documentary about the former rangers who dedicated their life to the care and protection of forests in Portugal. They are testimonies of workers, now retired, from the early 80's that saw much of their activity pass into the hands of firefighters.Testimonials that impress the dedication with which each fulfilled his vocation, often with family roots - a knowledge that passed from parents to children. Frederick Miranda, who knew how to combine the information to aesthetics, also addresses the plight of forest fires.

Hope reveals the fusion of male and female animal and its deployment into new worlds. The awakening of touch in dense matters generates the confrontation between the ephemeral and the destructive power of creation. A sublime reality emerges from the water prison of desire. Worlds of hunger, survival and lassitude generates a new life.

The "House" is the place where the grandmother of the director ever lived in. Visual and sound distortions introduce us into the universe of an old person whose personality is irrevocably intertwined with the various objects that surround her. A place where the slightest change of light provoke a surge of lost memories and emotions. (Karim Shimsal)

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..
