The reluctance to speak and the unwillingness to listen create a fertile ground for conflict. The protagonists of these films want to be heard and try to achieve that by screaming:  loud and clear, quietly or even silently. Inner images are transferred to the outside and demand recognition.

(RE)MOVE TO REMODEL

Q&A after the screening

5. Grito! Parte I:

    Shout! Part I:

6. The National Garden

For the sake of change and movement these films remodel, renegotiate and reinterpret. Images from the past are placed in a new context and the ones from everyday life are viewed from another perspective. The characters leave their familiar environment behind and break with encrusted structures in search of a new beginning or they just might create a new costume for themselves.

Moderation of both Q&As: Jana Piontkovska

Jana Piontkovska has a B.A. degree in film studies and is currently working on her M.A. at Freie Universität Berlin. She worked for several film festivals such as Berlinale, Rügen IFF, Duhok IFF.

A cooperation of the Furora Film Festival with POSTERWOMEN.

»Posterwomen« is a feminist project initiated by Berlin-based graphic designer Svenja Prigge to promote women* poster designers through the visual blog on instagram (@posterwomen) and through collaborations with other projects.

The Furora x Posterwomen exhibition is a collaboration that creates a platform for publishing and promoting work by women* artists.

The concept is that the designers visually interpret the festival films, thus the exhibition extends the film’s message through a different medium.
