DON SABÁS, directed by Juan Manuel Zúñiga, Mexico, 2012, 17’
A touching and subtly narrated story of an old man and a young boy, left in his custody a bit longer that initially planned. Their relationship changes from reluctance and lack of trust to friendship and closeness, which will inform and determine the elderly man’s life.

DOS DE TRES / TWO OUT OF THREE, directed by Paulina Rosas, Mexico, 2012, 12’
A narrative of small-time nomads, a girl and a small boy, making a living by cheating fellow underground passengers. Mutual help that these drifters offer each other and an almost family-like relationship that connects them are juxtaposed with the world of hardened criminals. Faced with an opportunity to make it big, will the friends remain friends?

LA MADRE / THE MOTHER, directed by Ernesto Martínez Bucio, Mexico, 2012, 15’
How far can a troubled son overusing his mother’s trust go? The mother’s love can be limitless and her trust in her child can be equally bottomless as she endeavours to help him, sacrificing herself against all odds.

STELLA MARIS, directed by Marie Benito, Mexico, 2010, 10’
Accompanied by his ten-year-old daughter, a father embarks on a scenic journey towards the ocean. The journey has its own aim and during the trip’s development multi-layered relationships of the daughter and her father come to the fore.

YUBAN (TIERRA VIVA) / YUBAN (LIVE EARTH), directed by Yaasib Vazquez, Mexico, 2011, 29’

The Zapotecs are indigenous residents of Mexico. What transformations does this erstwhile substantial population, which during the course of time has managed to create its own hermetic sealed-off world, undergo? The film depicts the toil, trouble, and drudgery of a people in the process of cultivating the culture of yore and at least maintaining the vestiges of traditional rules, customs, and rites.
