SHE MEASURES THE EARTH
Canada, 18 min
Director: Ching Yu
NATIONAL PREMIERE
'She Measures the Earth' follows four women scientists in Canada, Alison Criscitiello, Jocelyn Hirose, Isobel Phoebus, and Chimira Andres, as they reshape what it means to do science, to teach it, and to live it. From the hum of lab instruments to the silence of glaciers, from remote icefalls to the rhythm of a dancer’s steps and the laughter of children in the forest, their stories intertwine across landscapes both physical and emotional.
BERDEA

Director: Oihane Ruiz Menéndez
INTERNATIONAL PREMIERE
“Wood is the material of the future.” Keeping this in mind, architect Oihane Ruiz and landscaper Ane Barrutia explore the life cycle of wood in their native Basque Country, from forest to industry. They are searching for answers to an urgent question: what kind of forest will we leave for future generations? Confronted with a crisis-stricken model, they consult experts, workers, researchers and activists, fostering a dialogue on the connections between our origins, our collective memory and the necessity of envisioning alternative approaches to inhabiting the landscape.
