Im Radio wird vom geplanten Bau des fast 300 Kilometer langen El Gran Canal berichtet, der den Atlantik mit dem Pazifik verbinden soll. Die Nachrichtenstimme klingt weit entfernt, doch trifft das Vorhaben die indigene Gemeinde Bangkukuk im Süden Nicaraguas schwer. 120.000 Menschen droht die Zwangsumsiedlung. Auch Perro und seine Großmutter müssen um ihre Heimat fürchten. Die Älteren be- rufen sich auf Gott, mit Gebeten möchte die Großmutter den Jungen beschützen. Perro zieht weiterhin mit seinen Freunden durch den Dschungel, geht fischen, kümmert sich um die Tiere auf der kleinen Farm. Als sein Lehrer von der Schule abgezogen wird, muss Perro in die Stadt zu seiner Tante. In genauen Beobachtungen folgt der Film dem schweigsamen Jungen, erzählt vom unabwendbaren Abschied und Neubeginn.

On the radio, they are talking about the planned construction of the nearly 300-kilometre-long El Gran Canal to connect the Atlantic with the Pacific. The voices sound far away, but these plans hold devastating implications for the Indigenous Bangkukuk community in southern Nicaragua. Among the 120,000 people facing forced displacement are Perro and his grandmother. As the older people look to God for help, she too prays for her grandson’s protection while he roams the jungle with his friends, goes fishing and looks after the animals on their small farm. When the local school is closed down, Perro has to go and live with his aunt in the city. Keenly perceptive, this film follows the quiet boy in a tale of inevitable farewell and new beginnings.

The wind phone as an emotional escape

After Yuki & Nina in the 2009 Kplus programme, Nobuhiro Suwa returns to the Generation programme with another film. His new film Kaze No Denwa is in the 14+ programme. The day after the world premiere he takes a whole hour for Clara and me to answer our questions about the shooting process, the situation in Japan and other things. We make ourselves comfortable in the lounge of the Hotel Berlin, Berlin and exchange thoughts about Kaze No Denwa, Japan and the world with nice background music, while Isabelle kindly translates for us. Free Generation Reporters : How did the film team come together and how did you find Serena Motola, Haru's actress? Nobuhiro Suwa : It has been 18 years since I shot my last film in Japan. Since 2002, I have actually only worked with French producers. So I didn't know most of my new colleagues before. It was all very exciting and I was quite nervous, but everything went well. We did a casting for Haru, several girls showed up, but in the end ...

Between uproars and spa days

Hong Kong, July 28, 2019. Screaming, tear gas, gunfire. One, two, retreat from the front line, push forward. We are in the midst of Hong Kong's protests and uprisings last summer. We march with the masses, hiding behind the shields, seeing our comrades shouting commands, keeping moving, fainting, being carried away. Everything is chaotic and frightening, but still organized and controlled. For 15 minutes I hold my breath, my heart is racing and at the same time keeps skipping beats. It is suffocating. Incredibly suffocating to experience a day of the Hong Kong riots so close. In my holiday-influenced July, I did hear and read about the situation, but unfortunately I didn't learn about it too much. Therefore, it feels even more extreme to be thrown into this moment at the beginning of the 14+ Short Film Roll 2. Despite the brevity of the film, one arrives immediately within the scene. The camera fits seamlessly into the group dynamics. Everyone around is too busy to shy away ...
