Filmmaking as process is at the heart of these five films, memorably imaginative attempts at working through a variety of themes, and towards new ways of understanding.

A family convenes exactly 500 years after Charles V grants permission to Lorenzo de Gorrevod “to import 4000 Africans into New Spain.” The King’s act marks the escalation of a rupture, with its origins in 1492, that remakes the world and reverberates into the present. This apparent “start of slavery” becomes an occasion to tell the story of one family’s implication across time and space. In nobody’s word, the family archive is digitised and disintegrated&nbsp; in order to reframe accounts, destabilise claims, and inhabit spaces between fact and fiction, questioning the narrative impulses that inform the stories we tell.

&nbsp;La selva oscura is a record of a long journey connecting two funeral rituals in Cuba: the state burial honoring those who fell in the Angola war and a spiritist ceremony welcoming spirits of the past back into the world of the living. These events, captured by Cuban amateur documentaries filmed in 1987, intertwine to form the core of this film, whose central reflections revolve around loss and oblivion.

La Selva Oscura (Dark Forest)

Fragmented memories and visions find a home in light and shadows, bridging the gap between the past, the present, and the loss of a mother.
