Film series | A film series about relationships and family
Experience a moving online film series dedicated to exploring the multifaceted nature of relationships and family from July to December. Each month, a new film will be released, taking viewers on a profound journey through various life situations and emotional challenges. These six carefully selected films provide insights into personal struggles, self-discovery, and the unyielding bonds that shape families and relationships.
In July, we begin with the story of a young woman coping with the loss of her brother, uncovering dark family secrets in the process. August follows with a poignant portrayal of a woman confronted with her identity and everyday racism through the sudden appearance of her half-sister. September takes us into the stifling summer heat of a small village, where boredom and loneliness are interrupted by an unexpected encounter.
In October, we witness the intense reunion of old friends on a remote farm, highlighting the power of forgiveness as old wounds are reopened. November presents a touching retrospective of the childhood of a well-known comedian growing up in a coal and carnival-filled region, mastering his family's tragedy with humor and warmth. Finally, in December, we follow a couple on their challenging path to parenthood, testing their relationship and raising profound ethical and emotional questions.
"Experiences and Encounters" invites you to experience these profound stories that bring us closer to understanding the significance of family and relationships in all their complex, often painful, yet beautiful dimensions. Be inspired and moved by these narratives that uniquely portray universal themes and hold a mirror up to us all.
