The Yazidi Kurdish residents of the mountain town, which lies about 50km from the Syrian border, are trapped. But they are not beaten. Xavier Muntz was dropped by helicopter into Sinjar and spent three weeks among the inhabitants as they fought for their lives and their homeland. The resistance force here is made up fighters from many countries and religious groups; all united amongst their common enemy. Fighting alongside each other are Kurds from Syria and Turkey, Christians and Muslims and even an American who contacted them through Facebook. Unusually for such a conservative part of the world there are also women who have enlisted and who fight as fiercely as any of their male colleagues.   Filmography: -   Festivals and Awards:  TV Grand Format trophy at Prix Bayeux-Calvados 2015 (War correspondants) Special Gvc Onlus Prize at Terra di Tutti Film Festival 2015 Awarded best reportage at DIG Awards 2015 Finalist at Prix Albert Londres 2015          ]]> Our Time Mon, 26 Oct 2015 14:36:45 GMT http://old.irandocfest.ir/en/news/984/surrounded-by-isis http://old.irandocfest.ir/en/news/982/state-of-mind Director: Daria Lipko Screenplay: Daria Lipko, Dariusz Jarzyna Editor: Wojciech Słota Cinematographer: Dariusz Jarzyna Producer: OPUS FILM Distribution/Sales: festivals@tvn.pl   Synopsis: The main protagonist of the movie is Senadin Ljubovic, neuro-psychiatrist, Bosnian Muslim who hired Dr. Karadzic in a psychiatry clinic in Sarajevo before the war.

Interweaving footage from my three visits to North Korea, together with songs, spectacle, popular cinema and archival footage, SONGS FROM THE NORTH tries to understand, on their own terms, the psychology and popular imaginary of the North Korean people and the political ideology of absolute love which continues to drive the nation towards its uncertain future. To look closely and objectively at North Korea, a country that challenges our most fundamental assumptions about the human condition is ultimately to question the meaning of freedom, love and patriotism.   Filmography:  2014 - SONGS FROM THE NORTH 2011 - Pink  2010 - FAR FROM AFGHANISTAN 2006 - DANGEROUS SUPPLEMENT  2004 - ISAHN     Festivals and Awards:   67th Locarno International Film Festival  2014 Toronto International Film Festival 15th  Rio de Janeiro International Film Festival 2014 21st Valdivia International Film Festival 12th Doc Lisboa: Documentary International Film Festival 52nd Viennale, Vienna International Film Festival 2014  ]]> Our Time Mon, 26 Oct 2015 14:24:44 GMT http://old.irandocfest.ir/en/news/980/songs-from-the-north http://old.irandocfest.ir/en/news/979/portraits-of-a-search Director: Alicia Calderón Torres Screenplay: Alicia Calderón Torres, José Miguel Tomasena Editor: Juan Manuel Figueroa, Sofía Gómez Córdova Cinematographer: Dalia Huerta Cano Producer: Karla Uribe Distribution/Sales: Instituto Mexicano de Cinematografía (IMCINE), mercaint@imcine.gob.m   Synopsis: More than 20,000 people disappeared in Mexico during the horrifically violent war on drugs waged by former President Calderon. Putting a human face on the most harrowing of statistics, director Alicia Calderon follows three mothers as they search for their children who have gone missing. With their lives now completely devoted to seeking out the truth, they pursue any avenue possible, in the face of an indifferent government which considers their loved ones to be "collateral casualties" of the drug war. Through vigils, testimonials, protests and hunger strikes, these women refuse to bow - nor turn away from the brutality that underpins the disappearances. This is the story of a dystopian nightmare that is all too real - a country which has spiraled out of control, and continues to be helplessly at the mercy of its all powerful northern neighbour.     Filmography: -     Festivals and Awards: Sheffield Doc.
