AVATARA is not a cartoon. It's a documentary about an Internet subculture who spend their lives immersed in an online 3-D voice-chat program called "Digitalspace Traveler." Through a series of 14 interviews, we uncover the history, art, identities, struggles and emotions of this unique internet community who, since as far back as 1996 have mostly devoted their lives to this software.

Documentary looking at the ways which computer on-line services and the Internet have evolved, how they have been applied and the problems they can cause.

When a YouTube video of Alexandru Duru's hoverboard flight goes viral, the young engineer sets a Guinness World Record and achieves the recognition he desires. But fame and fortune don't come easily. Often mocked and ostracized (until they achieve their goal), inventors see the world in a distinct way. Duru is no different. The son of Romanian immigrants, he's driven by a desire to achieve the impossible—and to cash in. Exploring the banality of Duru's trial-and-error efforts, director Bogdan Stoica is an artistic risk-taker worthy of his subject. He allows contemplative scenes to develop in real-time with immaculate framing; a natural tension builds as we witness Duru strapping the equivalent of high-speed lawn mower blades to his feet. Avoiding the temptation to sensationalize and thus trivialize his subject, Stoica reveals a rich story about immigration, settlement and the human desire to transcend our physical confines. -Alexander Rogalski (Hot Docs Film Festival)

Estrenamos en exclusiva en España una de las películas imprescindibles para entender la actualidad en Brasil. Una obra que analiza una música pornográfica y explícita, por las letras de sus temas y los movimientos de baile. Una música dominada por hombres, mayoritariamente gángsters, en la que la mujer queda reducida a objeto de deseo. Un viaje al interior del mundo de las favelas y su música funk.

Realizado entre los años 1975 y 1982, "Koyaanisqatsi" -primera parte de lo que sería luego una trilogía formada por Koyaanisqatsi (1982), Powaqqatsi (1988) y Naqoyqatsi (2002)- es un singular documental que refleja la colisión entre dos mundos obligados a convivir: por un lado la vida de los hombres en la sociedad moderna, la vida urbana y occidental, llena de tecnología, ciencia y consumismo. Por otro la naturaleza y el medio ambiente del planeta Tierra. Sin voz humana, tan sólo con el poder de las imágenes y la banda sonora minimalista de Philip Glass, Godfrey Reggio presentó este documental ante 5000 personas el 4 de Octubre de 1982 en el Radio City Hall de Nueva York, convirtiéndose al instante en un documental de culto.

This documentary is about the artistic trajectory of Edvaldo Souza, aka Edy star, the flamboyant gay singer, actor, dancer, theatrical producer, performer, visual artist and the last of the Kavernistas alive.

Atypical dive into the world of a particularly talented artist of today: Alexandre Tharaud. Born of parents who were themselves familiar with the stage, Alexandre combines his passion for the piano and his fertile intranquillity under the eye of an intimate camera. A film conducted in the form of an exploration of intimate moments where the artist is much more in front of himself than the public, a confrontation at once gentle and brutal to his passion, to his unattainable star.
