Medium-length film FINALIST 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA recognises this film for providing a reconciliatory and integrating look at the essence of the people and of each human being who seeks to ‘return home’, rescuing what is most valid in them. After the reparation process of returning land to those who were forced to emigrate, a profound search arises to give value to what is essential in people’s lives, preventing the same events from occurring again.
Medium-length film FINALIST 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA recognises this film for warning us of the insensitivity to the suffering of others into which we can fall, as we allow ourselves to be carried along mechanically by a society governed by the hoarding of power and money, as the main references. A look at ourselves, to understand the ‘human poverty’ in which we can live, even if we are rich and powerful.
Medium-length film FINALIST 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA recognizes this film for providing a humanizing look on the ‘MENA’ that brings us closer to know the brutality of situations they have to live in this inhuman society, but also to recognize the greatness of their lives. At the same time, it shows how ‘dehumanised’ the people are who are able to empty the existence of these young people without resources, criminalising them and reducing them to a derogatory term.
Medium-length film FINALIST 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA recognises this film for providing a demonstration effect of the collective work felt, starring women who stand up against the poor outdated patriarchal schemes. A song of hope for a collective humanity.
Feature film FINALIST 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA recognises in this film a demonstration effect of how aspirations for decent housing can be practically implemented with collective work. A grassroots work to take care of each other, creating living spaces.
Short film FINALIST 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA recognizes this film for providing a demonstration effect of an unstoppable trend that is sweeping the world, the vindication of the rights of human beings discriminated against for being women, transforming even religious organizations anchored in the most severe patriarchal schemes.
Short Film Finalist 7th FICNOVA 2024.
FICNOVA recognizes this film for providing a demonstration effect of the search for internal coherence in people, necessary to guide their lives in the future. A search for the fundamental questions we human beings ask ourselves: who we are, where we come from and where we are going. A search that questions the self-serving publicity of supposed exits. A convergent direction recognizable in more and more people, capable of breaking down the barriers between us by caring for others and working together.
Feature film FINALIST 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA recognises a demonstration effect of how putting the affective feeling towards others at the centre can make even the cruelest characters in history bend. A sample of the invulnerability and courage that a person can experience when living in their unitive centre of coherence
Finalist Feature Film 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA acknowledges bringing us closer to the Mapuche culture, which brings us closer to the search for what is essential in so many other cultures around the world. It shows the need for cultures to be able to live in mutual respect, recognising the enormous loss we experience when we live with our backs to each other.
Feature Film Finalist 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA aims to provide an elevated gaze that encompasses us and broadens our poor, myopic and self-interested gaze, in which we live enclosed. Under the sky of a desert subjected to extreme conditions, courageous human beings stand up and seek to be recognised. If we do not recognise others, we are surely not recognising ourselves.
Finalist Short Film 7 FICNOVA 2024
FICNOVA recognizes this film for providing an inclusive look, recognized in many villages around the world, in which the construction of a dignified life is not understood without the community and the natural environment that surrounds them.
