“Um ato de resistência contra todas as ideias perversas": o Festival Internacional de Cinema de Berlim, a Berlinale, abriu suas portas na quinta-feira (13), tendo como pano de fundo o aumento do extremismo de extrema direita na Europa e em todo o mundo, dez dias antes das eleições gerais alemãs. O cinema brasileiro dobra sua participação nesta 75ª edição da Berlinale, marcando presença em quase todas as seções do festival. O longa "Último Azul", de Gabriel Mascaro, disputa o Urso de Ouro. A diretora da Berlinale, Tricia Tuttle, deu o tom na coletiva de imprensa do júri na quinta-feira (13): “um festival como este é uma rejeição (...) de todas as ideias difundidas por muitos partidos de extrema direita”. A Berlinale é o primeiro grande evento da indústria cinematográfica internacional de 2025. “Estamos passando por uma crise particular nos Estados Unidos, mas também em todo o mundo”, disse o presidente do júri, o norte-americano Todd Haynes, diretor de ‘Dark Waters', ‘I'm not there' e ‘Carol', ao lado de Tricia Tuttle. Após a “preocupação e o espanto” causados pelas três primeiras semanas do governo Trump, “como vamos fazer para reunir as diferentes formas de resistência (...) ainda está sendo considerado”, disse ele.Na noite de abertura, o Urso de Ouro honorário foi concedido a Tilda Swinton, estrela do cinema de autor que trabalhou com nomes como Wes Anderson e Pedro Almodóvar, além de Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise e Keanu Reeves.Os membros do júri começarão a trabalhar nesta sexta-feira (14), com a exibição dos primeiros filmes que concorrem ao Urso de Ouro, entre eles o "Último Azul", dirigido por Gabriel Mascaro, único brasileiro na competição principal do festival alemão em 2025.Festa do cinema brasileiroDoze filmes brasileiros marcam presença na programação oficial desta edição da Berlinale, um marco da retomada do cinema nacional em vitrines e premiações de todo o planeta.Esta edição do festival abriu suas portas com a exibição do filme "The Light", dirigido por Tom Tykwer, mesmo diretor do já clássico “Corra, Lola, Corra”. A cerimônia de abertura aconteceu no Palacio da Berlinale, na Potsdamer Platz, no centro de Berlim.O festival alemão conta este ano com a presença de diversas personalidades do cinema, incluindo Timothée Chalamet e Robert Pattinson. Mas o cinema brasileiro também mostra sua força no festival alemão em 2025. Para Eduardo Valente, delegado da Berlinale para o Brasil, é uma demonstração da "saúde criativa" do audiovisual brasileiro, que esta presente em quase todas as categorias da Berlinale esse ano."Acho que a seleção brasileira desse ano é muito interessante, exatamente porque de uma forma de outra, ela atravessa transversalmente muitos formatos e tem perfis bem diferentes", diz. "Então, eu acho que, de uma maneira ou de outra, isso sinaliza uma maturidade, uma saúde criativa do cinema e do audiovisual brasileiro", sublinha Valente.O diretor e programador reflete sobre a diversidade da participação brasileira no festival. "Você vai desde a competição oficial, que, claro, é a principal janela do festival, mas você passa pela Fórum Expanded, contando também com a participação de filmes antigos no caso de Iracema, e filmes atuais, que são a maioria, curtas, longas, inclusive uma série dentro da mostra Generation, que é só tem três filmes na programação", destaca. Alguns diretores brasileiros já são velhos conhecidos do festival. "Existem diretores iniciantes na programação e muitos diretores já com relações com a Berlinale, uma coisa importante de se falar", considera. "A Caru [Alves de Souza] já esteve antes, a Rafaela Camelo também, a Anna Muylaert, o Gabriel Mascaro, em suma, muitos realizadores brasileiros estão voltando à Berlinale esse ano", diz. Para Eduardo Valente, a seleção é um sinal claro da amplitude e da continuidade do cinema brasileiro. "Essa presença abrangente é algo que poucos países conseguem dentro da seleção geral do festival, estando representados em praticamente todas as seções, com longas, curtas e séries. Além disso, há uma delegação considerável no Berlinale Talents, que é um programa importante para novos profissionais do cinema, e um projeto brasileiro selecionado para o Co-Production Market. Também se destacam três séries no Berlinale Series Market, uma iniciativa do mercado do festival que também possui um processo seletivo rigoroso", ressalta Valente.O Brasil também marcou presença no World Cinema Fund no final do ano passado e em praticamente todos os espaços da Berlinale existe alguma representação brasileira. "Voltamos a ter um número de participações similar ao que foi registrado entre 2017 e 2020, período em que até superamos essa quantidade", destaca.A Berlinale fica em cartaz até o dia 23 de fevereiro na capital alemã.

Un viaggio nella mente e nella tecnologia con Andrea Gatopoulos The Eggregores' Theory, cortometraggio di Andrea Gatopoulos, ha catturato l'attenzione della critica internazionale aprendo la Settimana della Critica alla Mostra Internazionale del Cinema di Venezia 2024. Con una durata di 15 minuti, il film si presenta come un'opera di fantascienza che esplora i misteri della memoria e il rapporto con la musica, avvalendosi di un cast ridotto ma incisivo, con David Rumsey nel ruolo principale. La trama si concentra su un uomo tormentato da un ricordo sbiadito, come un quadro scolorito dalla luce. L'unico elemento persistente è una melodia che non riesce a dimenticare. Questo frammento musicale, intriso di significati perduti, diventa il filo conduttore di una narrazione che mescola introspezione e tecnologia, richiamando atmosfere enigmatiche e suggestive. La sceneggiatura e il montaggio sono curati dallo stesso Gatopoulos, mentre il suono, elemento chiave del cortometraggio, porta la firma di Tommaso Barbaro. Premi e riconoscimenti: un successo internazionale L'opera ha riscosso successo in numerosi festival internazionali. Oltre alla sua anteprima veneziana, è stata presentata al Festival du Nouveau Cinéma di Montréal. La sceneggiatura, in particolare, ha ottenuto il prestigioso Best Screenplay Award nel concorso Greek Short Stories Competition e il Onassis Film Award all'Athens International Film Festival. Questi riconoscimenti evidenziano la capacità di Gatopoulos di intrecciare tematiche filosofiche e tecnologiche in una narrazione breve ma densa di significati. Andrea Gatopoulos: una voce autorevole nel panorama cinematografico Regista e produttore cinematografico, Gatopoulos è un membro dell'European Film Academy (EFA) e un ex partecipante di programmi formativi prestigiosi come Berlinale Talents e Locarno Spring Academy. La sua filmografia comprende opere come Eschaton Ad (2023) e Happy New Year, Jim (2022), caratterizzate da una continua riflessione sull'interazione tra uomo e tecnologia. Il cortometraggio si inserisce in un percorso creativo che ha visto le sue opere proiettate in festival di rilievo, tra cui Quinzaine, Locarno e Rotterdam. Con The Eggregores' Theory, Gatopoulos conferma la sua abilità nel trasformare il mezzo cinematografico in uno strumento di indagine profonda, capace di interrogare lo spettatore su temi universali attraverso un'estetica curata e visionaria. Prospettive future L'accoglienza calorosa ricevuta a Venezia e nei festival successivi dimostra come The Eggregores' Theory sia una delle opere più rappresentative del cinema contemporaneo di breve durata. Gatopoulos continua a esplorare le potenzialità del cortometraggio, spingendosi verso una narrazione innovativa che stimola il dibattito sul futuro della memoria, della tecnologia e dell'identità umana.

Welcome to Season 3 of Ikigai with Jennifer Shinkai! Adrian Francis is the filmmaker behind the powerful documentary Paper City, exploring the impact of the firebombing of Tokyo in 1945 and the ongoing struggle for it to be acknowledged and remembered.

If you are also going through a period of transition and haven't got it all figured out, I think you will find much solace and inspiration in this episode. All those questions?

From the impossibility of nothingness to the seeming nothingness of death. In this episode, we sit down with renowned Thai director Apichatpong Weerasethakul. True to Apichatpong's unconventional narrative work, this talk draws us into meditative spaces, inviting us to slowly question filmmaking habits and the rat-race of expectations we are all involved in.

Time to break with old habits. In this episode, we hear from film professionals who are committed to challenging norms and promoting alternative ways of thinking about filmmaking. They boldly engage in discussions on representation in the industry and although change doesn't happen overnight, what these African and indigenous filmmakers, curators, queer collectives and people behind community cinemas sketch out are the many paths that lead to it.
