Mano a Mano
Director
Duende without an arena, in the shadow of the Méjan chapel in Arles, Mano a Mano is neither a duel nor a duo. But an eloquent hand-to-hand encounter with words. The poetry of life versed directly into the microphones.
From Freedom To Freedom
Director
Inspired by the context set by the Covid-19 pandemic, and by the fact that we spent Portuguese Freedom day under a certain confinement, we wanted to find out perspectives on freedom that defy the dominant narratives. So, we challenged filmmakers to create shorts that reflected what freedom means to them today. From Freedom To Freedom is the film that collects the 10 perspectives. At a time when stories move us forward, these are reflections of the essential. Shorts Featured: Your Spaceship by Vasco Mendes, Tema Libre by Felipe Rios Fuentes, I Can't Help by Daniel Brereton, Nothing but the Mountains of the Past by João Diogo Marques, Un Pays Lointain by Vincent Moon and Priscilla Telmon, Some Kind of Connection by Sophy Romvari and Mike Thorn, a day in Bangkok by Nisha Jurairattanaporn, Desabitar by Diana Antunes, 2020 Chimaera by Miguel C. Tavares and José Alberto Gomes
A Distant Country
Director
A journey from the outside to the inside, from the movement to the stillness, from the noise to the silence. A call for us to be more. What if confinement is teaching us the true meaning of freedom?

ASHRAM: The Spiritual Community of Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda
Director
In the spring of 2017, film-makers Vincent Moon and Priscilla Telmon were invited to make a contemporaneous portrait of The Sai Anantam Ashram, the multi-ethnic and multi-generational spiritual community founded in 1983 by Alice Coltrane Turiyasangitananda, which included speaking with some of the community's elders, as well as Alice's sister, singer Marilyn McLeod.
Híbridos - The Spirits of Brazil
Director
From 3 years of research around Brazil, HÍBRIDOS, THE SPIRITS OF BRAZIL dives into the sacred culture of the largest country in South America through a very poetic and sensorial approach. As an exploration of trance-cinema, the film breaks down the distance between the viewer and the subject, guiding them trough a realm of movements, of non-stop dances, of music pulsating at high rhythms, creating in its core a new perspective about what might be the invisible and how to we deal with it in a creative way.
