STOLEN FISH, 30min., Poland
Directed by Gosia Juszczak
In the tiniest country of mainland Africa, The Gambia, fish is now being powdered up by Chinese corporations and exported to Europe and China to feed animals in industrial farming. As a result, Gambians are being deprived of their primary source of protein and overfishing is depleting marine ecosystems. The film follows Abou, Mariama and Paul, three Gambians who share intimate stories of daily struggle, anger, hope and longing for their loved ones in the midst of difficult migration routes. The first film on Gambia’s fishmeal factories, offering a unique insight into untold drivers of migration and the role played by women in new economic systems.

THERE WAS A MAN, 2min., Poland
Directed by Kamil Wojcik
A short story about a man - one of the species that once inhabited Earth.
A story intriguing and surprising as the renovation of the bathroom, but at the same time condensed like a cistern walled in the wall and hard to unscrew like a valve in the main sewer line.

AND YOU SLEEP, 12min., UK
Directed by Elzbieta Piekacz

TIDES - MAREE, 45min., Ireland
Directed by Alessandro Negrini
Is the story of a river able to reveal a sense of life imprisoned by History? Despite the end of the conflict, in Northern Ireland there is still a city with two different names: Derry, for Catholics, Londonderry for Protestants. In the middle of the city, flows the river Foyle, which acts as their liquid border. A visionary and surreal autobiography of a river that ended up being what it wasn’t supposed to be: a liquid wall, dividing two sides separated by 40 years of conflict.
