23/04/2014

DocumentaMadrid: annual gathering for professionals, artists and the public Junto a una relevante Secci n Oficial Internacional a competici n, se refuerza Panorama, consagrada en exclusiva al documental espa ol y que podr ser vista por programadores de todo el mundo sirviendo de plataforma de internacionalizaci n del cine espa ol.

Del 30 de abril al 11 de mayo, el festival dedicado en exclusiva al cine documental, DocumentaMadrid, abre sus puertas en Cineteca para ofrecer los mejores t tulos del g nero producidos en todo el mundo durante esta temporada. La und cima edici n llega para consolidar el giro emprendido en 2013. Una intensa programaci n en torno a la que tiene lugar este encuentro anual entre los profesionales, los creadores y el p blico al que dirigen sus obras.

Seleccionadas entre las 1102 pel culas inscritas, m s de 70 historias reales llegar n a las pantallas madrile as procedentes de 26 pa ses tan diversos como EEUU, Francia, Alemania, Israel, Ucrania, Argentina, Brasil, Polonia o Siria.

La Secci n Oficial traer a competici n algunos de los grandes t tulos documentales de la temporada, en estreno absoluto en Espa a. Obras de directores consagrados y premiados en todo el mundo, junto a las primeras propuestas de nuevos directores; formas tradicionales de narrativa y apuestas innovadoras en el lenguaje y en la forma de contar la realidad; testimonios directos e irrepetibles de nuestra historia m s reciente y visiones po ticas y subjetivas de las vivencias de las gentes.

Mikel Olaciregui, director de DocumentaMadrid, ha asegurado que una selecci n que alterna temas de actualidad como la situaci n en la Plaza Tahrir de El Cairo o la lucha contra Bashar al-Assad en la ciudad de Homs con tratamientos m s intimistas de temas como la pobreza, el sistema financiero visto desde dentro o la tolerancia religiosa en Ir n. Con ella, el festival mantiene su compromiso de potenciar y difundir el cine de no-ficci n en la medida que ste es un reflejo de las realidades que existen en nuestro planeta, ofreci ndonos puntos de vista plurales en una precisa instant nea de los agitados tiempos que estamos viviendo .

Un cine de lo real, m s vivo que nunca, que nos acercar a los puntos m s conflictivos del planeta a trav s de pel culas como Return to homs, sobre el largo periodo de guerra en Siria; Ukraine, is not a brothel, en los meses previos al conflicto Ucraniano, las activistas feministas de FEMEN, centraron el foco de atenci n mundial sobre un pa s con grandes restricciones, inmerso en la corrupci n y atenazado por un patriarcado post-sovi tico; The green prince, basada en hechos reales, cuenta la historia de una de las fuentes de informaci n m s valoradas por Israel, el hijo de uno de los l deres de Ham s; o Iranian, una larga conversaci n entre el realizador iran Mehran Tamadon, que es ateo, y cuatro fervientes mul s en la Rep blica Isl mica de Ir n.

Y por supuesto, el mayor conflicto global, la crisis del sistema, abordado desde puntos de vista muy diferentes. Desde las tripas del negocio bancario en Master of the Universe to the aggravation of two angry nursing that defy the establishment in Two racing grannies.

Pero tambi n historias reales que parecen sacadas de una novela de ficci n The last black sea pirates, un grupo de perdedores convertidos en piratas a la caza de tesoros ocultos hoy en d a, o Nepal Forever, una comedia documental sobre dos convencidos pol ticos comunistas rusos

Lugares rec nditos, como los que visitaremos en My name is salt, en un viaje anual junto a miles de familias al desierto de India convertido en oc ano de sal; en Ekpyrosis, una comunidad maronita en pleno desierto pampeano; o Bugarach en el Pirineo franc s, destinado seg n el calendario maya, a ser el nico punto en la tierra que sobrevivir al anunciado fin del mundo

Chilling portrait... as that presented to us The decent one en el que Himmler, uno de los m ximos responsables del genocidio durante la 2 Guerra Mundial, muestra su otro rostro, tierno y humano, en el trato con sus familiares. O los personajes reales de The dog, en los que se bas la pel cula Tarde de perros y que resultan a n m s interesantes que los construidos en la ficci n.

Estos 13 largometrajes, junto a 20 cortometrajes, competir n por el Premio DocumentaMadrid al Mejor Documental, que ser otorgado por los jurados internacionales de cada una de las categor as.

Panorama, escaparate del documental espa ol

Agitador cultural y creador de espacios como el internacionalmente conocido club de rock de Lausanne La Dolce Vita, Melgar dio un giro hacia la realizaci n de documentales dirigiendo m s de una docena de t tulos considerados hitos de la tem tica de la inmigraci n y la identidad.
