The Face of a Gaze (2026)
In the city, ATTTA’s Containment Center emerges as a space where resistance is practiced through everyday life. Alejandra and Pía, together with the other trans women who inhabit the place, sustain a network that survives between the memory of the repression of the 1990s and the urgency of present-day needs. Through their work in the community kitchen, healthcare support, and conversations around the table, the short film portrays how collective gathering and shared memory manage to build a refuge of identity in the face of precarity, transforming abandonment into a shared way of inhabiting the world.

A Dangerous Game (2014)
In this sequel to the award-winning You’ve Been Trumped, director Anthony Baxter once again follows American billionaire Donald Trump and a cast of other greedy characters who want to turn some of the Earth’s most precious places into golf courses and playgrounds for the super rich. From the historic site of Dubrovnik to the ancient sand dunes and rolling green hills of the seaside town of Balmedie, these tycoons bully local residents, influence governments, ignore local referendums and even meddle in national environmental policies to acquire their latest trophies. With in-depth interviews and Baxter’s expert storytelling, we learn just how devastating these golf courses can be to the surrounding countryside and water tables. In this funny, inspiring and at times heartbreaking David and Goliath story for the 21st century, the locals don’t give in easily. But will their fight be enough to protect their land and traditional way of life?
