Ishtar Yasin Gutiérrez

One hundred years of the cinematic memory of a small country told through motion graphics. A brief tour of previously unseen images and forgotten fragments of Costa Rican cinema, which, amid state efforts and industrial ambitions, prevailed throughout the 20th century.

Iraqi theater director Mohsen Sadoon Yasin has spent much of his life in involuntary exile. His daughter, Ishtar Yasin Gutiérrez, has constructed a loving film portrait of her father, and an elegy for a homeland to which they can never return—partly because it has changed so much, and partly because it was perhaps always more a concept than a reality.

Two young Nicaraguan children, Saslaya and her mute brother Dario, must travel to Costa Rica to find their long-lost mother.

Several characters meet in the underworld

The Invisible is a brief trek through Haiti a month after the catastrophe of January 12, 2010. Via songs and instants of day-to-day life in the city and in the camps, we discover a talented people that want, and deserve, to be reborn. It is a lesson to us all from those who have lost it all, but still keep on fighting. It is the voice of those who demand justice, all the while surrounded by life and death.

This is not another standard biopic about Frida Kahlo. “Two Fridas” is a poetic film, based on the relation between the Mexican painter and the Costa Rican nurse Judith, who took care of Frida during the final years of her life.
