OPEN VILLAGE
COUNCIL_carmen comadran_SPAIN_2012_6min
In Spain, it is a right that villages of less than a hundred inhabitants
are entitled to, in recognition of the tradition of assembly where villagers
gathered in symbolic places such as squares or under ancient trees and took
decisions about the present and future of the village. Legislative changes are
making it increasingly difficult to maintain and only villages that show a
clear desire for self-management are able to maintain the open village council.

never stops running. All trying to get out of their daily hamster wheel lives,
looking for emotional content in a harsh, technical world built of concrete,
steel and plastic where personal achievement and success are all important. All
of them are running away, but always in circles. An experimental visualization
of our daily life acceleration.

HUNGARIAN MOUSTACHE_nora
lakos_HUNGARY_2011_39min
Hungarian
Moustache is about a group of Hungarian patriots who identify themselves
through their mustache. Mustache in general is a symbol of manhood and
patriotism for them. But the big and bushy Hungarian mustache is even more: it
is a style that appears in the European Mustache Championship as an official
category. The only problem is that these strong patriots who consider themselves
the most authentic, could never win in their own category so far. Because there
is a German guy, called Günter Rosin who is unstoppable in Hungarian style in
the last ten years. The stake if the Hungarians could win this time?!
