Latin-American documentary film festival Déli Doku is running again, between 8 and 13 October, with lively parties, gastronomic specialities, great wine – and, of course, amazing movies. The organisers aim to bring Latin-American culture closer to locals and discuss female representation in the film industry. The event is hosted at locations such as the Bem Cinema, Anker’t and the House Bar.
Stories deal with the lives of Latin-American women. An Argentinian girl revisits her childhood as an adult by exploring her mother’s past through old videos, a hedonistic Colombian grandfather has secrets that change the course of his family’s life, and ageing showgirls from Mexico now face the passage of time. A fiery Brazilian director also jumps straight into the depths of the darkest city slums. The event celebrates and emphasises the impact of contemporary female directors.
