Title: El After del Mundo
Artist: Florentina Gonzalez
Statement: El After del Mundo is a film tempting to give something to think about other possible ways of being human, having fun imagining a humanity of the future, a life without rules, without a world and without a body. At just 28 years old, I feel like I am witnessing this moment even at this "after" of the world. And it is my friends who help me better understand and accept this chaotic journey.
Origin: Argentina + France
Title: Postiche
Artist: Paulin Rogues
Statement: A Space Buddy Comedy Movie in 3 Acts.
Written by me in 2007. Realised by me in 2015.
I wrote Postiche at seventeen, when stories didn’t need meaning, just momentum, rhythm, and strangeness. The piece came out sideways, and I left it that way.
Eight years later, I filmed it almost unchanged. I didn’t want to improve it or explain it. I wanted to preserve the absurdity, the deadpan tone, and that naïve freedom where characters speak in loops, do things for unclear reasons, and seem trapped in rituals they half remember.
The film lives between theatre and dream, school play and surreal chamber piece. Everything is slightly off: the pacing, the logic, the mood. I leaned into discomfort, stillness, and the humour of malfunction.
Origin: France
Title: Hotel Kalura
Artist: Sophie koko gate
Statement: A woman walks into a hotel bar on the romantic island of Sicily, waiting to be lit.
Origin: UK
Title: Ex Creta
Artist: Jon Portman
Statement: My goals with this film were simple: to create the greatest, most unnecessary poop joke of all time.
Origin: USA

Title: time for sushi
