International Competition

2022

The 3rd SISFF International Competition consists of 5 sections with 30 films from 27 countries. The diverse perspectives of people living different sociocultural spaces in the same era always awaken new senses. Your stagnant senses will awaken as you’ll encounter: senses and acceptance in the flow of life; different lives forming one discourse; a more wholesome endingless than ending; time and space of the past that are projected in present; and courage and process of reducing the weight for the sake of motion. The format and content of the 30 films of the SISFF International Competition will draw the new tomorrow closer.

In a hidden place, the daily routine of a retirement home unfolds as time seems to stand still. The penciled residents come to life on paper. Some are active, others rest or follow a fixed schedule to be repeated each day: medication, meals, games… Around them, machines are flashing, caregivers are busy and some crucifixes remind them of the death that lies in wait. Time fades away and stretches a nearby forest.
