The event
Finitude.S
How do we go on living with absence? Four films approach death from the perspective of those who remain. Through mourning, rituals, memories, imagination and care, this session offers a sensitive look at our relationship with finitude — and at the gestures we invent to keep a connection, say goodbye and continue living.
The films
A la Dérive
Marion Reymond
A young care assistant turns to her imagination to cope with the loss of her mother and escape from the nursing home where she works.
Casting di un Padre
Giulia Goy
Rose has lost her father. She decides to cast men in search of a substitute who could embody him, so that she can share one last coffee with him.
PERPETUAL CARE
Yuri Tavares, Amanda Macchia
“Perpetual Care” is an experimental film offering a poetic and musical experience of how cemetery workers deal with death and life in a place as diverse as New York, and the care these ideas demand at such a delicate moment.
Durée : 49’
After the films
The Le Renversé team facilitates a conversation with the audience around the questions raised by the programme.
