Girl Power is a documentary that presents female graffiti writers from fifteen cities – from Prague to Moscow, Cape Town, Sydney, Biel, Madrid, Berlin, Toulouse, Barcelona and all the way to New York. The graffiti community is predominantly a man's world, and men often share the view that graffiti – namely the illegal kind – is not for girls. And yet women have become increasingly more emancipated in recent years; there are female graffiti shows, magazines and websites. Girl Power captures the stories of ladies who have succeeded in the male graffiti world.

La cinéaste géorgienne Salomé Jashi nous plonge dans le quotidien d’une petite ville de son pays via la chaîne de télévision locale, Jikha TV. Elle accompagne l’une de ses reporters dans ses missions, rendant compte avec humour de sa tâche un brin absurde. De fait, même si, comme le dit la journaliste, "il ne se passe absolument rien" dans la bourgade de Tsalendjikha, où règnent la pauvreté et le chômage, il faut pourtant meubler l’espace médiatique. Ce documentaire renvoie une image fantasmée de l’identité géorgienne, doublée d'un portrait mosaïque d’une région, de ses habitants et de son histoire récente.

SIGNER ICI est une sorte de road-movie le long du sillon naturel chargé de magie, qui traverse l’Europe. Des alpes suisses en Pologne Orientale, du Stromboli en Islande… une tentative de grande envergure pour trouver le rythme idéal du voyage. Roman Signer balise nos étapes à l’aide de ses instruments très personnels et ses interventions d’une concision séduisante et pleines d’humour subtile. SIGNER ICI est aussi un voyage à travers des états d’âme. Un exercice de funambulisme tel que le sculpteur Signer en a le tour, à l’aide de mèches et de fusées.
Signer ici - En route avec Roman Signer (1995 )
Film
On a mountaintop in southwest Serbia lies the womanless hamlet of Zabrdje, where the Jankovic brothers hold the fort. Veering between the utterly hilarious and deeply poignant, this beautifully-crafted film follows one brother's quest to introduce women back into the once-vibrant community. But with no roads or running water, convincing a Serbian woman is out of the question.
Village Without Women (2010 )

Sur la péninsule d’Izu, au Japon, au village de pêcheurs de Wagu, Matsumi, Mayumi et Masumi plongent jour après jour à la récolte des coquillages et autres animaux marins. Sans bouteilles d’oxygène ou autres outils, elles vont aux limites de leurs capacités physiques. Les Ama-San – les « femmes de la mer », traduit littéralement – plongent de la sorte depuis plus de deux mille ans et subviennent ainsi aux besoins de leurs familles. Sous l’eau, ces femmes gracieuses se transforment en courageux chasseurs marins. Ainsi, elles remettent non seulement en question le rôle traditionnel de la femme au sein de la société japonaise, mais également notre propre vision de la féminité.

More people are imprisoned in the United States at this moment than in any other time or place in history, yet the prison itself has never felt further away or more out of sight. This is a film about the prison in which we never see an actual penitentiary. The film unfolds a cinematic journey through a series of landscapes across the USA where prisons do work and affect lives, from an anti-sex-offender pocket park in Los Angeles, to a congregation of ex-incarcerated chess players shut out of the formal labor market, to an Appalachian coal town betting its future on the promise of prison jobs.

It’s not uncommon for a film to have a moving love story at its core. Yet this particular set-up is unusual. The lovers here are Ingeborg Bachmann and Paul Celan, both important representatives of post-war German-language poetry. The story of the relationship between the Austrian and the Jew from Czernowitz is told through their nearly 20-year correspondence (1948–1967). Or, more precisely, by a young woman and a young man reading from their letters in a studio in Vienna’s venerable Funkhaus.
The Dreamed Ones (2016 )

Pour d’autres “voyageurs”, venus de pays tourmentés, c’est la dernière étape (Sangatte) avant d’atteindre la Terre promise. Le film offre une confrontation saisissante entre ces deux mondes que tout sépare. Perdus au milieu de ces allées et venues, il y a aussi quelques Anglais qui se sont installés à Calais en espérant y faire des affaires et qui finalement se retrouvent endettés. Et tous semblent désemparés, pris au piège de la modernité dans cette ville de transit.

Twenty-eight well-known filmmakers living and working in Austria were invited by WIENER MOZARTJAHR 2006, to produce associative miniatures on Mozart. Requirement: they had to be one-minute artistic short films. The directors come from a whole range of different backgrounds, ranging from animated, experimental and short film to documentaries and feature films. The result is a multi-facetted sampler of diverse formal and contextual positions with regard to Mozart’s person and his influence on today’s society, art and culture. The contributions run the gamut from experimental-conceptual statements through socio-critical and documentary observations to pithy short feature films.

Timo Novotny labels his new project an experimental music documentary film, in a remix of the celebrated film Megacities (1997), a visually refined essay on the hidden faces of several world "megacities" by leading Austrian documentarist Michael Glawogger. Novotny complements 30 % of material taken straight from the film (and re-edited) with 70 % as yet unseen footage in which he blends original shots unused by Glawogger with his own sequences (shot by Megacities cameraman Wolfgang Thaler) from Tokyo. Alongside the Japanese metropolis, Life in Loops takes us right into the atmosphere of Mexico City, New York, Moscow and Bombay. This electrifying combination of fascinating film images and an equally compelling soundtrack from Sofa Surfers sets us off on a stunning audiovisual adventure across the continents. The film also makes an original contribution to the discussion on new trends in documentary filmmaking. Written by KARLOVY VARY IFF 2006

MamaPan is an artisan bakery where the female employees are social cases who would hardly find a job given that, for example, they cannot read or write. We see the harsh reality of these women, their instability and their inability to adapt, which results from all the problems they bring from home. The film presents their perspective in contact with the economic and entrepreneurial perspective and once again shows the problems in the social system related to the integration of vulnerable people in Romania.

White-tiled rooms, neon lighting; on the walls black and white photographs documenting the atrocities committed by the german Wehrmacht on the Eastern Front in WW2. Against this background former soldiers talk about their experiences beyond the bounds of "normal" warfare. An uncompromising film on remembrance and oblivion.

There's a film subtitler. There's a film she must urgently subtitle. There's the plot of that film, with which she relates on a level that will remain enigmatic to us. And in that film within the film there's a main character, whose dreams are being devoured, and other characters, interested in dreams as well, but far more practical. And there¹s music, and a promise of music. Timelessly wandering through the world.
Paul (2016 )

An audition for men aged between 16 and 99. There are no props nor make-up, just pure improvisation. All that is required is the willingness to engage openly with the topic and language of the words on the page. No small challenge, since the text in question is the scandalous novel published anonymously in 1906 “Josefine Mutzenbacher, or the Life Story of a Viennese Whore, as Told by Herself” which, as this film confirms, continues to be the subject of passionate and controversial discussions about desire, even today. What might be world-class pornographic literature for some is seen by others as an abusive depiction of child sexuality.
Mutzenbacher (2022 )
Film
Mauricio, a lifeguard on a Chilean beach, considers himself to be a model of efficiency and professionalism. His colleagues, however, think otherwise, and speculate on why he never goes into the water. Maite Alberdi's visually gorgeous feature documentary debut has the intensity of a short story; beginning as a quirky character study of lifeguards and beachgoers, it becomes something altogether darker and more shocking when events take a dramatic turn.
The Lifeguard (2011 )

Captant en magnifiques plans fixes la transformation accélérée du paysage, les gestes et les mots qui président au déracinement des arbres, Salomé Jashi compose un poignant film poème sur l'accaparement de la richesse par une poignée d’individus, et sur l'appropriation de la nature par l'avidité humaine.
