Tapping into the collective unconscious, this showcase excavates shared knowledge buried just below the surface. These films remind us that the roots of humanity and nature are intertwined. When pavement erases habitat and the evolutionary thread is lost, we can weave poetry into a home, recombine scattered lines, and dream possible futures.

By introducing various personal ‘antidotes’ to loneliness such as a kitchen light, the sound of a radio, or the flight of cranes, Circles contemplates the perpetual oscillation between loneliness and solace, light and dark, silence and company as something inherent to and shared by humans and nature.

Circles

By introducing various personal ‘antidotes’ to loneliness such as a kitchen light, the sound of a radio, or the flight of cranes, "Circles" contemplates the perpetual oscillation between loneliness and solace, light and dark, silence and company as something inherent to and shared by humans and nature.

Wandering Houses (Casas Errantes)

Two migrant poets from Barranquilla, Colombia journey together between clothespins, mango, and waves in a Lisbon home.

The Everglades

While driving through a Miami car wash built on land that was once part of the Everglades, Campbell McGrath reads his poem on one of America's great, vanishing wild spaces.

Lizard Song

A cross-genre film that darts and skitters, blending language, dance, and music. Lizard is wild and Lizard is you.

This is How We Dream

This program of shorts addresses the urgent entanglements of ecology, memory, ancestry, and imagination in a world shaped by crisis and marked by a need for transformation. A collaborative love letter to the future by participants in the festival workshop, "Reimagining Climate Futures: Creative Practices for Social Change."

New Growth: Incantations of Black Love

"New Growth" is a celebration of Black womanhood that considers Black hair as an ancient and undying form of political resistance, self-expression, and a labour of love.

Clay Nesting Dolls (Poupées Gigognes d'argile)

Articulated through sign language, "Clay Nesting Dolls" speaks to the space where mothers and daughters merge, powerful and vulnerable, like the earth.

Found Poetry. Four Verses

Four significant poems written by four authors were broken into lines and hidden in hundreds of films until they were found and restored.
