Screenings and talks on the production and creation processes in documentary filmmaking. Besides Termitas, which gives a voice to the most restless film-makers in our most immediate context, two events on dissident practices in the field of generative artificial intelligence and an Inaugural Programme dedicated to the documentary work of a pioneering film-maker from Cuban exile: Miñuca Villaverde.

The stories of Cubans who arrived in Miami during the Mariel Boatlift and were housed in improvised camps within the heart of the city. The cloth curtains hanging between the beds like floating walls were the only thing separating the varied lives of these people.

Termites

Termites

Termitas, running symmetrically to Paisaia, will show emerging or little-seen works from our immediate surroundings, by asking the filmmakers to also present materials from their work process. Its name comes from the article by Manny Farber called “White Elephant Art vs. Termite Art” (1962) where we read about those films that “seems to have no ambition towards gilt culture but are involved in a kind of squandering-beaverish endeavor that isn’t anywhere or for anything. A peculiar fact about termite tapeworm-fungus-moss art is that it goes always forward eating its own boundaries, and, likely as not, leaves nothing in its path other than the signs of eager, industrious, unkempt activity.”

The festival offers two public activities to think about a current topic that is affecting documentary practices directly: the latest developments in generative artificial intelligence.
