Film
Billi Wang è nata a Pechino ma vive a New York da quando aveva sei anni. Il suo contatto sentimentale con la Cina è Nai Nai, la sua vecchia nonna, ancorata alle tradizioni e alla famiglia. Salda e praticamente indistruttibile, a Nai Nai viene diagnosticato un cancro. La famiglia decide di nasconderle la verità e di trascorrere con lei gli ultimi mesi che le restano da vivere. Figli e nipoti, traslocati negli anni in America e in Giappone, rientrano in Cina per riabbracciarla e per 'improvvisare' un matrimonio che allontani qualsiasi sospetto. Risoluti e uniti nella bugia, trovano in Billi una resistenza. Inconcludente nella vita e insoddisfatta della vita, Billi vorrebbe liberarsi dell'angoscia e rivelare alla nonna la prognosi infausta. Tra oriente e occidente, troverà una sintesi tra due culture e due condotte etiche.

Film
Artist and filmmaker Eric Baudelaire spent four years interacting with the pupils of a film class, at a secondary school in the Parisian suburb of Saint-Denis. Keeping himself on the sidelines, he gives way to the children to express their thoughts and dreams. Their remarks are intuitive, inquisitive, yet passionate and surprisingly mature, concerning rocky and complicated issues, ranging from racism, immigration, and identity, all the way to the possibilities of film as a medium. As time flows almost unnoticed, it is evident that these children have not only become the co-directors of this film but also the heroes of their own lives.

Film
Sono almeno una diecina, tra muti e sonori, i film ispirati al romanzo (1847-49) di Henri Murger che nel 1896 fu messo in musica (La Bohème) da G. Puccini su libretto di Illica e Giacosa. Il film del finnico A. Kaurismäki è ambientato in una Parigi dei giorni nostri quasi astratta; i personaggi sono artisti e poveri, ma tra i quaranta e i cinquanta anni, spesso immigrati; invece di Puccini, musica di Mozart, valzerini francesi, voci di Moulodji e S. Reggiani e una triste canzone giapponese per la morte di Mimì. I fatti sono press'a poco gli stessi, ma privi di aura romantica, raffreddati da una recitazione atonale e da un umorismo impassibile. Citazioni a iosa e 2 comparse speciali: i registi Louis Malle e Samuel Fuller. Impregnato di un'allegria da naufraghi che non esclude né dignità né tenerezza.

No other band in rock'n'roll history has rivaled The Stooges' combination of heavy primal throb, spiked psychedelia, blues-a-billy grind, complete with succinct angst-ridden lyrics, and a snarling, preening leopard of a frontman who somehow embodies Nijinsky, Bruce Lee, Harpo Marx, and Arthur Rimbaud all rolled into one. There is no precedent for The Stooges, while those inspired by them are now legion. The film will present the context of their emergence musically, culturally, politically, historically, and relate their adventures and misadventures while charting their inspirations and the reasons behind their initial commercial challenges, as well as their long-lasting legacy.

As a visually radical memoir, CAMERAPERSON draws on the remarkable footage that filmmaker Kirsten Johnson has shot and reframes it in ways that illuminate moments and situations that have personally affected her. What emerges is an elegant meditation on the relationship between truth and the camera frame, as Johnson transforms scenes that have been presented on Festival screens as one kind of truth into another kind of story—one about personal journey, craft, and direct human connection.
