As part of its Break Out event series, #UnionDocs has announced its «Artistic Differences» series. Co-curated with #Cíntia Gil# and in partnership with the likes of #Dokufest, Open City Documentary Festival, #FICValdivia, #RIDM and Taiwan International Documentary Festival TIDF, «Artistic Differences» makes room for bravely sharing and responding to challenging documentary art, inviting a diverse audience into a monthly series of film programs and study groups, and bringing those voices to the stage of a public dialogue.

The series will screen singular films that open questions about the possibility of collective transformation, forms and practices of togetherness, and speak to filmmakers and authors that bring those notions into the core of their own artistic interrogations. Each month there will be a three-part series at a new location that will include a film programme, an online Study Group, and a physical screening and dialogue between filmmakers and invited authors.

The first stop is at Kosovo’s Dokufest «Under a Roof»: a pairing of films by #Besim Sahatçiu# (117, Yugoslavia, 1976) and #Manuela Serra# (O Movimento das Coisas / The Movement of Things, Portugal, 1985). The Study Group (30 July) will include and be stimulated by the ideas and reflection of writer Boris Buden, and the final dialogue will take place at Dokufest between Boris Buden and Manuela Serra.
