Bezvremenske priče

Program

Sve se mijenja, osim suštine. Ovaj programski blok donosi tri jedinstvene priče koje svjedoče trenutku u kojem živimo, ali i nekim arhetipskim oblicima ponašanja, koji kroz povijest mijenjaju svoje ruho, ali bit nikada.

Negdje daleko na rubu Beringovog mora, dokumentarni film Koka (Poljska, r. Aliaksandr Tsymbaliuk) kroz prikaz života sina i oca ribara postepeno i vješto grije srca gledatelja, usprkos posvemašnjoj studeni krajnje impozantnih, ali surovih pejzaža. U vrlo nježno zagasitoj francuskoj animaciji Esca (Francuska, r. Felice Ronzon) dvije djevojčice traže zajedničko sklonište od kiše koja nikako da prestane padati. Kroz svjedočanstva i snimke izvršavanja zadataka, dokumentarni film Njihove oči (Francuska, r. Nicolas Gourault) gledatelje gotovo opipljivo uvodi u najnoviji sustav eksploatacije radnika iz siromašnih zemalja juga: iznimno loše plaćen posao učenja umjetne inteligencije kako bi autonomni automobili mogli, na temelju naučenih slika, samostalno voziti bogate putnike ulicama bogatih zemalja.

Everything changes, except the essence. This program block presents three unique stories that bear witness to the moment we live in, while also reflecting archetypal patterns of behavior that have changed their appearance throughout history – but never their core.

Somewhere far away on the edge of the Bering Sea, the documentary Koka (Poland, dir. Aliaksandr Tsymbaliuk) gently and skillfully warms the viewers’ hearts through the portrayal of the life of a father and son – both fishermen – despite the overwhelming cold of the striking yet harsh landscapes. In the delicately muted French animation Esca (France, dir. Felice Ronzon), two young girls search for a shared shelter from the rain that just won’t stop falling. Through testimonies and footage of task execution, the documentary Their Eyes (France, dir. Nicolas Gourault) immerses the viewer – almost tangibly – into the latest system of labor exploitation of workers from the impoverished Global South: the extremely underpaid job of training artificial intelligence so that autonomous vehicles can, based on the learned images, independently drive wealthy passengers through the streets of wealthy countries.
