Am Anfang das tosende Meer, dann der strömende Regen und schließlich der plätschernde Fluss – das Wasser ist eine der wenigen Konstanten in Dighus Leben. Sich bei den Großeltern einzugewöh- nen, fällt dem Achtjährigen schwer. Erst kürzlich ist er mit seiner Mutter und seiner älteren Schwester aus der Großstadt in die länd- liche Küstenregion Konkan gezogen. Vor allem vermisst er seinen Vater, der scheinbar spurlos verschwunden ist. Dighus Schwester weiß auch nicht, was mit ihm passiert ist, aber sie hat aufgegeben, die Erwachsenen danach zu fragen. Nur seine Fantasie und sein Tage- buch bieten Dighu Zuflucht vor Trauer und Einsamkeit. In ruhigen und landschaftlich traumhaften Bildern erzählt Regisseur Akshay Indikar behutsam von Dighus Umgang mit Veränderung und Verlust.

First the raging sea, then the pouring rain, and finally the burbling river: water is one of few constants in eight-year-old Dighu‘s life. He is finding it hard to adjust to life in his grandparents‘ village in Konkan, a rural region on the Indian coast. Along with his mother and older sister, he recently moved here from the city. Above all he misses his father, who has disappeared seemingly without a trace. Dighu‘s sister does not know what happened to him either, and has given up asking the grown-ups about it. It is only in his diary and through his imagination that Dighu finds solace from loneliness and grief. Slow-paced and full of wistful beauty, Akshay Indikar‘s film tells a tender tale of coping with change and loss.

About the Perception of Women in Spain in the 90s

Las Niñas is a film in this year’s Generation program with a strong young female protagonist first becoming aware of the world’s inequalities between boys and girls and its injustices. It is set in the 90s in Spain. I was lucky enough to get in tough with the films director Pilar Palomero and ask her a few questions: freie Generation Reporter: Can you tell me a bit about the background of the film? Pilar Palomero: The film is not autobiographical, but a lot of my childhood experiences have flown into Las Niñas. A few years ago, when I was thinking about making a film about my education, I found my notebook from my religion class in grade 6. I read an essay, which is exactly the one that appears in the film, where the nun explains the girls sexuality. At the first moment I laughed at the thought of what kind of education we got but then I started to realise how contradictory it was. It was 1992 and they were talking to us about sexuality, chastity and only having sex in the marriage...

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 ...
