International Competition: Will these wounds be healed


ELECTRIC SWAN

Konstantina Kotzamani

France, Greece / 2019, 39 min

Buildings are not supposed to move. But on Avenida Libertador 2050 , a building moves and the ceiling shivers, causing a strange nausea that devours its residents. Those who live on the top are afraid they'll fall - the ones who live beneath are afraid they'll drown.

HUNTSVILLE STATION

Jamie Meltzer, Chris Filippone

USA / 2020, 13 min

Every weekday, dozens of inmates are released on parole from Huntsville State Penitentiary, the largest prison release centre in Texas. With a bus ticket voucher and a $100 release cheque, most of them take in their first moments out of prison with phone calls, cigarettes and quiet reflection at the Greyhound station up the block. In this pivotal moment between incarceration and freedom, a myriad of complicated emotions arise before the bus arrives to take them home. A tender observation.
