Three short films
Edition 1: Sensitive - Reality - Pilot
Glued and Screwed is a bond created between exciting shorts by emerging artists for one evening. Every month we select highly different works by young local artists alongside international makers.
Following these new voices, we are made familiar with challenging ideas, playful approaches get exchanged, and possible futures become narrated. This edition we pieced together What Has Left Since we Left (2020) by Giulio Squillacciotti, Harpy (2020) by Adele Dipasquale and Warsha (2022) by Dania Bdeir, and look at expression of fantasies, the decline of Europe, shrieks and groans, political stereotypes, gender bending and claustrophobia.
On February 7th 1992, the Treaty on European Union was signed in the Dutch city of Maastricht. Decades later, the representatives of the last three countries left in Europe meet again in the very same room where it was signed, this time to deliberate on the permanent shutdown of their Union. In what seems to be a looped therapy session, the three characters - helped by a British interpreter as a self-appointed analyst - try to deal with their feeling of loss. The conversation allows their political and personal bonds to be woven together metaphorically, compelling them to face their identity crisis and acknowledge what is left, what no longer is and what still could be of their Union.
Harpy (2020), Directed by: Adele Dipasquale (IT), No dialogue, Subtitles: English
Starting from Anne Carson’s “The gender of sound”, the film plays around with the trope that classically associates women with irrational and uncontrolled outflow of sounds, more similar to the monstrous than the human — the opposite of rational, self-controlled, moderate in speaking man. Employing unpleasant sounds, high pitched shrieks and guttural groans, the film explores stages in between femininity and animality.
Warsha (2022), Directed by: Dania Bdeir (LB), Language: Arabic, Subtitles: English
Mohammad is a crane operator working in Beirut. One morning he volunteers to take on one of the tallest and notoriously most dangerous cranes in Lebanon. Away from everyone’s eyes, he is able to live out his secret passion and find freedom.
