[vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading auto_text=”yes” heading_semantic=”h3″ separator=”under” separator_color=”yes” sub_lead=”yes”]A Journey From Latin America to Latvia Through the Gaze of New Daring Directors[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text]After the Covid-19 outbreak, we took the hard but necessary decision to postpone the 4<\/span>th<\/span> edition of Vision\u00e4r.\u00a0<\/span>Now, accordingly to new measures, cinemas can reopen and we can finally announce the new dates!<\/span><\/p>\n

From the 21<\/b>st<\/b> to the 28<\/b>th<\/b> of September at ACUDkino<\/b>, <\/span>Vision\u00e4r Film Festival<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>\u2013 Encounters With New Talents<\/b> will host a special edition of the festival. In the respect of all the hygienic measures taken to protect all of you, the cinema will offer a limited amount of seats. For this reason, we will screen each film and block of short film twice, to guarantee each work a decent visibility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And now an insight of what this edition will offer you!<\/span><\/p>\n

The program offers an\u00a0<\/span>international selection of<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>9 first or second feature films<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>in competition\u00a0<\/b>for the Audience and Jury Awards (all Berlin or German premieres) and the\u00a0<\/span>Short Berlin Encounters<\/b>, a\u00a0<\/span>selection of 19 Short Films\u00a0made by Berlin filmmakers<\/b> for the Audience Award.\u00a0<\/span>Chile, Colombia (in co-production with Belgium), Brazil, Canada, USA (in co-production with France and China), Austria, Spain and Latvia\u00a0<\/b>are the countries of this year\u2019s edition. This year Latin America, with the political gaze of their directors, has caught – and well deserves – our attention. The social turmoil following the state of repression needs voices of denunciation that will never be silenced. Now more than ever they need to be heard. Not only political but also social, intimate, sexual and artistic is the revolution undertaken by our new international talents. Sometimes it can even be funny!<\/span><\/p>\n

Films tell stories but they are also a territory to reflect, investigate and rethink their language – both aesthetically and formally. The boundaries between documentary and fiction are now blurred. Arthouse and genre films don\u2019t necessarily exclude each other. As Vision\u00e4r\u2019s mission is to discover and support new visions and talents, the selected films will also reflect a daring and unusual way of developing a discourse.<\/span><\/p>\n

The section\u00a0<\/span>Short Berlin Encounters<\/b>\u00a0will be presented in four blocks under a common topic:<\/span><\/p>\n
