The Paper Ensemble #16
Synopsis
In an old empty paper factory, we follow a woman playing with sculptures made of paper. Inspired by the design of Japanese gardens, #16 by The Paper Ensemble invites you to be receptive to a world made entirely out of the sounds of paper: crackling bushes, ocean waves and singing whales.

EPHÉMEROS
Viktorija Zobielaitė, 2021, LT, 14 min, 0+
EPHÉMEROS (short-lived / transitory in Ancient Greek) is a dance film that subtly relates human, plant and sculpture to create a unique world of fantasies. An ephemeral creature sacrifices itself so it can live again in the circle of life. The temporality of existence in this world becomes inescapably tangible in the face of eternity.
Silk Paper and Bruises
Gabriella Engdahl, 2021, GB, 3 min, 0+
Silk Paper and Bruises explores the norms and expectations in the dance world, where traditional stereotypes still resonate. A group of barbie dolls take us through a poetic journey of hungry dressing rooms, self-doubt and cracking bones.
Anima Animae Animam
Julieta Gasroc and José (Putxa) Puchades Martínez, 2021, ES, 30 min, 0+
Anima, the latin word for soul, refers to movement. Does this mean that objects are without soul? Anima Animae Animam pulls us into the world of puppets. It is a tribute to the people who dedicated their lives to sharing their souls with beings that never had them. It's for the people who gave their voices to objects that had so much to say; old forgotten stories. It is a tribute to the puppeteers who, due to their profession, were not allowed to be buried in cemeteries because they were considered soulless.
