A filmic triptych comprising the two tales “Blue Ballad for Lovers” and “Blue Rondo for Survivors” and the documentary middle part “Blue Psalm for Wolves.” They flow into each other and thus build a universal mosaic of fragmented life situated in the city of Sarajevo. The camera follows different protagonists and interweaves them in a cinematic round dance of hope and despair, love and death, and their quest for a dignified life, which is fragilely stretched between the desire for the warmth of love and the coldness of our civilization’s reality.

Mexico will no longer exist!

¡Aoquic iez in Mexico! ¡Ya México no existirá más!

A frenetic view runs over a convulsed Mexico City, a colossal metropolis sustained by the myth of "mestizaje" and other colonial forms of violence. Past and present weave a flurry of images; fragmented memories of this land. Ancient deities are incarnated, while dreams overlap among intimacy, complicity and the tumult. This is an erratic film that invites us to reimagine the complex relationship we have with the constructed “mexicanidad.”

Zinzindurrunkarratz

Oskar Alegría embarks on a journey to recover the past. With a Super-8 camera that once belonged to his father and has remained untouched for 41 years, he plans to retrace the path of the shepherd: the journey of transhumance that his grandfather undertook in his youth, following now-forgotten coordinates. The result is a film that delights in the search —as well as the many detours along the way.
