Life is Fare
This beautiful film about the immigrant experience is a San Francisco film about Eritrea. Sephora Woldu plays "Sephora" who, like the director, is an architecture student but also a filmmaker. She is pitching to her traditional mother a film she wants to make about a man who fled their home country and ended up in San Francisco. As a recently arrived immigrant, he is terribly homesick for his native Eritrea, but will not admit it due to unease towards speaking ill of the country; and more consciously in hesitance of admitting hard truths about his culture and himself. "It’s colorful and visually whimsical in a way that can only be described as if the Wizard of Oz went to Africa," said Woldu.

Ôrí
En 1977, Raquel Gerber inició una investigación para una película sobre la emancipación de la población negra de Brasil. Tres años más tarde conoció a Beatriz Nascimento quien, en busca de su propia identidad, estaba haciendo una investigación histórica sobre la relación entre las culturas negras de África y Brasil. Ellos decidieron cooperar. El resultado es una película sobre las organizaciones negras y conferencias en los años 1970 y 80, por un lado, y sobre un estudio algo emocional y poético por Beatriz Nascimento de la continuidad cultural del brasileño negro por el otro. Sin embargo, la película es mucho más que esto: es también un intento de arrojar nueva luz sobre la historia de los negros, y así contribuir a la emancipación negra.

The Snowball Rolled South
Almost all Jews in South Africa originally came from Lithuania. As early as the 19th century, a handful of them reached the shores of South Africa. Those who made the trip became successful artists, entrepreneurs and activists, while those who stayed behind were massacred by Nazis and Lithuanian collaborators. The film explores how these bittersweet circumstances have constructed the identities of South African Litvaks. Personal recounts and anecdotes paint the tragedy of the Holocaust, hopes of a new life in South Africa, as well as unique bonds for the future. (Lithuanian Film Center)
