In this section, featuring ten feature films, we present highlights from this year’s festival season. We take you along on a journey to Chile, Japan, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Palestine, South Korea, Uruguay, Iran and the Philippines. The selection includes the Oscar submissions THE MELTDOWN (Chile) and FILIPIÑANA (Philippines). With CHRONICLES FROM THE SIEGE, we are showing the Palestinian winning film from the Berlinale in the competition of the “Perspectives” section. The Iranian film A BIT OF LIGHT joins our program fresh off of a competition appearance in Venice. From South and Latin America, we are presenting THE RED HANGAR, a drama from Chile about the military coup that occurred there in 1973, a wickedly funny comedy about a dog named PRINCE from Uruguay and the migration drama THE GARDEN WE DREAMED from Mexico. Asian cinema is also well represented here, with TIGER from Japan, SICKO from Kazakhstan and SUMMER’S CAMERA from South Korea.
