India The film is a journey that perhaps began decades ago and has been many years in the making. The Hakki Pikkis are a free spirited nomadic tribe who began their wandering many generations ago in the North Western part of the Indian subcontinent.
Over time they traveled through and settled in different states of the country. As they moved, they survived through trapping birds and hunting small game in the forests and selling them in cities and towns along with lucky charms and trinkets. If the trap failed, begging was the next best bet!
Exiled from the forest, reviled by the city, their traditional ways of life outlawed, the Hakki Pikkis share their stories of wit and survival in the film that emerged through a series of community conversations held when we travelled with friends from a settlement in Bannerghatta, Bangalore to other settlements across Karnataka.

Costa Rica / 19 mins 'Dele Viaje' is a popular Costa Rican phrase that encourages people to overcome fear and step outside comfort zones. Pupis, Beto, and Carlos are three young adults struggling to feel normal in our world. Their stories run parallel: Pupis, an inventive and somewhat neurotic girl, has been taken from the past and is now adjusting to life in modern day San José; Beto lost his girlfriend and, along the way, a piece of who he was; and Carlos, a defeated soccer player and current high school teacher, is slowly starting to realize that his frustration might be a product of his own denial as a closeted gay man. But what these three stories have in common is their characters vulnerability and the way their lives are shaped in the face of fear of not being accepted, of having to come to terms with their past, and of uncertainty for what the future might have in store.

Oggi sono passato e tu non c’eri è un viaggio leggero ed ignoto, divertente ed a tratti enigmatico verso il nulla, risultato di un metodo compositivo spesso anti-cinematografico, inventato in corsa e condiviso con una piccola comunità di anime che hanno preso parte al racconto, generandolo a loro volta. Ancora una volta “Nulla è Vero. Tutto è Permesso”.

The desert is also a symbolic reference to two specific films: Teorema (1968) by Pier Paolo Pasolini and The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994) by Stephan Elliot. The protagonists of these movies are the Guest (a mysterious stranger with an ambiguous sexuality) and Bernadette (a transgender character), respectively, and both played by the same actor Terence Stamp. These films are the starting point for the text narrated by the voiceover in Deserto, where real and fictional identities disappear, dismantling the existence of any fixed role.
