Student filmmakers from around the world experiment with the craft, including films from the Philippines, Poland, Israel, Azerbaijan, and the States.
The Allegory of Jack and Jill is a satirical retelling of a familiar childhood rhyme, where two siblings climb a hill to fetch water for their mother. But what begins as a simple chore reveals a deeper crisis, one where water, a basic necessity, remains out of reach for many. Through their struggle, the film exposes a system where leaders turn a blind eye, failing to provide what should be a guaranteed right. In a world where people must still fetch and fall, it asks: How long must we climb, while those in power let the pail run dry? The water was meant to flow for all.
