Hach Winik
Un reportaje fotográfico que refleja la susceptibilidad en la que viven las pequeñas comunidades que intentan mantener sus tradiciones y su forma de vida, en un mundo regido por la globalización. Una visión de la vida de los lacandones, indígenas de la selva de Chiapas, en México, que descienden directamente de la civilización maya. La crónica fotográfica de este pueblo se acompaña por un relato del propio Paul Bowles, quien hace ya más de setenta años comprendió y relató la experiencia de un pastor en su intento de evangelizar a una comunidad indígena. Este pequeño pueblo de apenas mil almas es un diminuto testimonio de la presencia humana en medio de una selva milenaria hoy...
I-Docs
The history of documentary has been one of adaptation and change, as docu-mentarists have harnessed the affordances of emerging technology. In the last decade interactive documentaries (i-docs) have become established as a new field of practice within non-fiction storytelling. Their various incarnations are now a focus at leading film festivals (IDFA DocLab, Tribeca Storyscapes, Sheffield DocFest), major international awards have been won, and they are increasingly the subject of academic study. This anthology looks at the creative practices, purposes and ethics that lie behind these emergent forms. Expert contributions, case studies and interviews with major figures in the field address the...
Madeleine's Children
In 1759 a baby girl was born to an impoverished family on the Indian subcontinent. Her parents pawned her into bondage as a way to survive famine. A Portuguese slaver sold the girl to a pious French spinster in Bengal, where she was baptized as Madeleine. Eventually she was taken to France byway of Ile de France (Mauritius), and from there to Ile Bourbon (Reunion), where she worked on the plantation of the Routier family and gave birth to three children: Maurice, Constance, and Furcy. Following the master''s death in 1787, Madame Routier registered Madeleine''s manumission, making herfree on paper and thus exempting the Routiers from paying the annual head tax on slaves. However, according t...

Memòria de la Retirada
El 26 de gener del 1939, Barcelona va caure en mans dels franquistes. A partir de llavors, milers de famílies republicanes es van exiliar a França. Van haver de deixar-ho tot i, malgrat la pena que els embargava, aquesta era tan forta com el desig de llibertat que els impulsava. Entre tota aquella gent hi havia nens, de vegades de molt curta edat. Seguint els pares, van experimentar l'exili, els camps d'internament i de concentració i moltes privacions. Avui, més de vuitanta anys després, aquells nens són a l'ocàs de les seves vides i volen més que mai transmetre com a llegat als joves la dolorosa experiència que van viure. Guiats pel fotoperiodista Miquel Dewever-Plana, els alumnes...
