Michelangelo Antonioni’s 1960s panoramas of contemporary alienation were decade-defining artistic events, and Red Desert, his first color film, is perhaps his most epochal. This provocative look at the spiritual desolation of the technological age—about a disaffected woman, brilliantly portrayed by Antonioni muse Monica Vitti, wandering through a bleak industrial landscape beset by power plants and environmental toxins, and tentatively flirting with her husband’s coworker, played by Richard Harris—continues to keep viewers spellbound. With one startling, painterly composition after another—of abandoned fishing cottages, electrical towers, looming docked ships—Red Desert creates a nearly apocalyptic image of its time, and confirms Antonioni as cinema’s preeminent poet of the modern age.

BORN IN GAZA follows ten children telling their daily life under the bombs
during the Israeli offensive that devastated the Gaza Strip in July and
August 2014. Among them, we find Udai, who lost his house in a bombing, or
Malak, a refugee in a UN school. Sondos is in the hospital with serious
injuries in her abdomen and Mohamed has no option but collecting garbage to
make a living. The awarded director Hernán Zin shows a deep and intimate
vision about how violence twists these children's lives, putting aside any
political debate or last-minute event. A deeply human vision of the war and
its consequences with an original aesthetic look. Slow motion and time-
lapse, as well as drone and underwater shooting, make cinematography one of
the essentials of Born In Gaza. A war was barely ever shot so beautifully
and disturbing at the same time.
BORN IN GAZA comes to an end three months after the Israeli offensive, with
us returning to check up on these children dealing with the terror and
trying to have their lives back to normal. They speak up for the 538 dead
children and over 3,500 wounded left by the so called 'Operation Protective
Edge' Israeli offensive.
Nominated for best documentary at the Spanish Academy Awards 2015.
