Audience Award: Ballot papers for the audience vote will be handed out at the entrance.

How can history be told? Who become the narrators of those pasts that constantly push their way into our present? Where do narratives ‘from back then’ intersect, intertwine, or overlook each other? And what is this seemingly encapsulated ‘then’ when we feel its effects in the present? 

The films put together in this programme provide insight into history’s diverse testimonies and entanglements and offer a space for seeing and listening to them. Plants, buildings, letters, archives, and people become bearers of history, are placed in landscapes and cities, on coasts and finally on the screen. Whispering and shouting in languages that need to be learnt. They tell of dilapidated ruins and flying dreams, of resistance and emerging desires. In the web of voices, what seems so clear becomes recognisable only if we listen well: There is no such thing as a simple story.
