Artium Museoa Auditorium. Admission: €2 / Friends of Artium: €1
The aim of this film season is to raise awareness of women filmmakers and their films. Realities excluded from the canonical history of cinema that we feel are essential to champion. Therefore, given that we initially proposed a chronological itinerary and later forged a relationship between films through cinema itself, this new edition features a new addition: the women filmmakers themselves will suggest films directed by women throughout the history of cinema and these film directors will also present the sessions.
We will approach the cinematographic universe of each of these women directors once a month. A possible route to gradually continue to rewrite
our own history of cinema.
5 February, Sunday
Viagem ao sol, Ansgar Schaefer, Susana de Sousa Dias. Portugal, 2022. 107 min., OV in Portuguese with Spanish subtitles.
Introducer: Maria Inês Gonçalves, film director.
Like the famous children of Russia in the Spanish Civil War, there were also the children of Austria, who had been sent en masse to Portugal during the Second World War. This film tells of this amazing story, from the testimony of these children today, the voices that guide an immense and brilliant work with the photographs and films of the house of that time. The story beyond the official stories, the class differences and the contrast between sunny Portugal and devastated Austria intersect with each other's exciting individual memories in a film by 48 director, Susana de Sousa Dias.
5 March, Sunday
Tarachime, Naomi Kawase, Japan, France 2006, 39 min., VO in Japanese with Spanish subtitles.
Introducer: Irati Gorostidi, film director.
The filmmaker Naomi Kawase, who has become a mother, continues in this new documentary her personal work of questioning the world. Indeed, on April 24, 2004 at 10:40 am, their son Mitsouki was born. The birth took place, in the traditional way, without a doctor, with the sole assistance of a midwife, in an old Japanese house, on a tatami. Naomi Kawase was surrounded by members of her family. When the umbilical cord was cut, Noemí took the camera and recorded this symbolic moment, in addition to filming all the people who lovingly assisted her. Since then, Naomi Kawase has been living and filming the day-to-day life of her 90-year-old son and grandmother in their old home in Nara. This film is a reflection on the cycle of life through the body.
