Marianne Lehmann, born in Switzerland in 1936, married a Haitian and moved to Port-au-Prince in 1957. Fascinated by voodoo cult objects, she began with buying them to avoid their scattering abroad. Over the years it became the largest collection in the world to be donated to Haiti. The film shows the beauty of these objects, their significance and importance to the world's cultural heritage and highlights the link between voodoo (Haitian vodou), the slave insurgency and the creation of the first black nation.

Tantawawas tells the story of Eli, a Bolivian migrant worker in Buenos Aires, who suffered the murdering of her husband during the Parque Indoamericano's police repression in December, 2010. Four years have happened since the slaughter: the deaths are still unpunished.

Memory of an old militant man talking about the village and his struggle… Testimonies on the period of French colonialism and the Yousfist movement…

In 1990, the Louvre invited the French philosopher Jacques Derrida to create a visual and philosophical product based on the materials of the museum's exposition. The philosopher chose the image of a blind man in painting. In the film, Jacques Derrida reflects on the drawings of the Louvre's "Parti-pri" exposition. The director captures the emerging thought and, with the help of various representative means, allows us to see the rapprochement that Jacques Derrida establishes between the gesture of the artist and the gestures of the blind man.

Of the memories that generate unique moments full of life.

A little girl with four arms. An immortal jellyfish. The mourning of the future we had imagined. An essay on what remains when a dream dies. In a very poetical film essay, the director Morgane Frund conveys an inspiring reflection about such critical issues as representation and memories of minorities. She develops an artistic practice that confers moving images with the essential task to archive visions of possible futures, that is, dreams that have not yet come true. In this regard, film is not only a matter of resistance against oblivion, but also the guarantee of the survival of queer visions in a normative society.

A three part story of the North African immigration to France.

Over the course of 10 months, a camera travels to Buenos Aires, Argentina and Hanover, Germany to meet with Magalí, María Belén, Ivana and Carla, the founding members of the Archivo De La Memoria Trans Argentina, the first existing Trans Archive in the world. Taking the shape of a photo-novel, the documentary not only recounts the founding members lives as trans women under the Argentine dictatorship (1976-1983), the AIDS epidemy, state repression and mass assassinations but also years of fighting for their rights, sorority and the exaltation of life and laughter in times of death. Filming each one of them is filming them embracing their new role as curators, archivists and historians while a collection of 7,000 photos goes through the filter of their memories.

Once the commercial exploitation of the resources existing in the American provinces of the Hispanic Monarchy began, hundreds of Africans were enslaved. Those who remained in Spain ended up forming a community that, over time, managed to gain a small space in society. Music and dance helped to strengthen their identity.

The quiet walk of a family is interrupted by the presence of a latent danger. This photo documentary reconstructs the spaces of the Parque de la Memoria through its works of art, while evoking the ever-present horror of the last military dictatorship.

The Punta de Rieles prison was where most female political prisoners were incarcerated during the dictatorship in Uruguay. The way up to the building led through “the meadow” where there were animals grazing, and the prison itself was surrounded with flowers. The place seemed eminently liveable, almost comfortable, and at first sight there was no sign of the silent struggle going on behind those walls. This documentary is an attempt to reconstruct life at the prison through the testimony of some of the hundreds of women who were there and who resisted the military regime's attempts to grind them down and destroy them.

Marina's death transforms her past into heritage. Her memoirs and the portrait of her identity are hostage in a dispute to claim her gender.

In this static film, a concentration camp survivor struggles on his deathbed to convey a sense of what he experienced to his daughter. Standard file footage of holocaust atrocities accompanies his monologues. His wife and daughter also have thoughts on the subject, which they convey in a similar manner.

His job was to place every little step sound in sync with the video. Looked like it wouldn't take him very far.

Five African Colombian women sing about the life and death of their peoples through traditional music and dirges. Tracing a musical journey, the singers show us how to respond to violence with art and creation. Musical Memories Of Life And Death In Colombia The word Cantadora comes from traditional Colombian music influenced by African roots and refers to the women that compose and sing their songs while going through their daily chores. "Cantadoras" provides a portrait of rural life in Colombia in its Caribbean and Pacific regions through the words and songs of the resilient Afro-Colombian singers that farm there. These resilient women speak of memories of violence at the hands of paramilitaries, and the power of song to build strength and give voice to dignity and creativity.

A man murders his dying lover. He drowns him in a tub of water. We drift through the man's mind in the hours after the death. He falls more and more deeply into layers of memory. La mémoire de l'eau is a tale of fear, love and grief set in a world of uncertain boundaries.
