BAM TCHAK
By Marie-Elsa Sgualdo

Laetitia is not at all pleased! It’s her daughter’s birthday and, especially for this occasion, she has agreed to strap on a pair of skis for the first time ever. Several falls later all she can think of is giving her rival, who had snatched her husband away from her, a real slap in the face. Her best friend has no objection, on the contrary!

LE MIROIR
By Ramon & Pedro
A man's life, from early childhood to old age, in the time it takes to freshen up.

TZIRK
By Riccardo Bernasconi/Francesca Reverdito
In a dilapidated circus in the middle of a large city, the “Strongest Man in the World” can no longer lift his elephant. Every artist does his best, but the once successful circus has lost its public. The trapeze girl decides to risk her own life, in a desperate attempt to help the man she loves find his lost self-confidence.

FAMILIENSACHE
By Sarah Horst
A tragicomic portrait of a family living beyond the usual conventions. The father is a gay bon vivant who was once notorious for his opulent fashion shows and debauched lifestyle. Excessive partying has left its mark on the parents and shaped the son. With raw honesty, the family takes stock of living and growing up together.

CHANGNING DISTRICT ORCHESTRA
By Mathieu Borysevicz
The city is a symphony. This three-channeled allegorical installation features Shanghai’s migrant recyclers and their musical calls that form the sound track of the city. A plastic bottle becomes a metaphor for the cycles of live, love, reincarnation, as well as an environmental prophecy. A TV journalist, broken hearted lover, and homeless couple compose the fabric of this bustling metropolis and help to expose the colorful contradictions of Shanghai’s contemporary urbanity.
