AKASHA - by Biljana Tutorov
2005 / fiction / 26min / film

AKASHA tells the story of Apu, a young boy in South India. A student of Kathakali, he is haunted by the Red Demon, the most evil character of this traditional form of theater. Apu experiences a journey that resembles a rite of passage, to the point where he begins to understand the nature of his fear and how to overcome it. The story of AKASHA is simple, yet if we can see Apu as embodying that fragile part within ourselves, then the film reveals itself in all its richness.

NOT FOR SALE - by Yaël Bitton
2003 / documentary / 65 min. (TV 58 min.) / video


NOT FOR SALE documents life on my block, on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, over the last two years, from the bulldozing of Esperanza Community Garden, to the cracking floor in a basement apartment next door.

The film tells the story of old-timers on the block, going about their daily lives amid gentrification. They tell their memories of what used to be an immigrant lower-class neighborhood. All around, new residential buildings go up, catering to young, white, professional singles, eating away theremaining space of this older and mostly Puerto Rican community.

As the private and the political conflate and inform each other, the film addresses universal questions of home, land, and (in)security. Different portraits make up an interlocking and personal narrative so that a place, a time, a culture, voices and dreams reveal themselves in an intimate manner.

Available in the following formats:
Digital Beta, Beta SP, VHS & DVD (NTSC or PAL)

and in the following languages:
English, Spanish VO
