This year, Giloo teams up with TIDF to curate a special selection of past TIDF nominees and award-winning films. While you're enjoying the festival in person, don’t forget to sneak in a little break and relive (or... redeem?) some of the unforgettable works from previous editions—now available online.
Martin Scorsese once said: "Cinema is about what’s in the frame and what’s out." The rectangular frame of the camera—and the screen—shapes the stories we tell, the history we remember, and even our very memories. We’ve grown accustomed to what lies within the frame, but if we take a step back, we might begin to reexamine both what’s inside and what’s outside—to rediscover forgotten stories, histories, emotions, and memories. From experimental films to documentaries; from black-and-white negatives, historical footage, to paintings and poetry; from continental Europe to Taiwan; from the history of war to literary legacies, to intimate family and personal memories— these five films lead us into one frame after another, where retrospection becomes reflection. And from there, perhaps, we may begin to move freely between the inside and outside of the frame, to remember again, to narrate anew— embarking on odysseys through memory and time.
Some sacrifice countless lives for personal gain. Others, in the darkest and most fragile moments, reveal the noblest of virtues. From the abandoned remains of concentration camps, to journalists risking everything on the frontlines of the Middle East, to fractured peoples grappling with identity— these stories are haunting testimonies against the atrocities of humankind. Giloo presents five powerful documentaries that confront unhealed traumas. As long as pain persists, war cannot truly be over.
