PROGRAMME 2022

The eighth edition of Festival Cinemística took place in Granada (Spain) November 2022. As every year, the programme included a special thematic and competitive section, which on this occasion was generically entitled The Refuge.

afiche_CineMística2022ElRefugio

Indeed, since its beginnings, Festival Cinemística has had the vocation of constituting a cinematographic refuge for those films and authors who would like to find in our event a humble, but convinced and kind, refuge along the way.

A hospitable stop for the artistic and personal itinerary of the protagonists of The Other Cinema.

There are places-refuge, people-refuge, books-refuge, moments and situations-refuge, thoughts-refuge, images-refuge, sounds and music-refuge, and a multitude of different kinds of refuges, which offer the human being a necessary refreshment and rest, advisable to be able to continue the vital pilgrimage.

Of course there are also Refuge-films...

In these chaotic times in the world we live in, physical and psychological shelter must be sought. Individual refuge, but also, if possible, shared refuge.

A libertarian refuge, courageous, of comradeship, in the front line of action against ignorance, confronting the cowardice of submission to the status quo.

The cinematograph as a refuge against the temptation to misanthropy.

A joyful refuge, an inner and outer oasis, alien to the dominant political and socio-economic proposals (including health and military ones). A refuge that creates its own references, protecting us from the dystopia of a controlled society governed by the technocracy of macro-data.

In this general framework of unofficial and insubmissive art, and in particular in that of the refuge-films, filmmakers have a responsibility and a right, especially lawful and necessary, to exercise with exigency.

In 2022 Cinemística will therefore deal with art cinema as a refuge, in its many facets. With praise for stylistic, investigative, experimental, thematic difference and anomalous, minority narrative attitudes. With openness, affection and attention to the apparently "small".

Also, of course, with great respect for the Spectators-refuge, guardians of the necessary free critical discourse, in the face of the malicious inertias of the new communication technologies, their covert directives and their acolyte cultural managers.

Los alrededores del Silencio_afiche vertical

Films about the external and internal silence, about the paradoxes of language, about the before and after of action, the silence which precedes and follows spoken outcomes. Films that map silent, silent, forgotten places and characters. In praise of silence as an ecosystem in which talking codes, idiograms and statements, voices and indiscreet symbols, with their niches/significant and beings/significants interacting, cohabit. The infinite distance between words and things. Silences that fight against the mutism and the excess of information of the monoform in the monoworld. Films about silent breaks, quiet revolutions, silences against the oppressive discourse system of indifference, based on lies and other truths. Shouting in a low voice. Insubordination and silence!

Otoño Antropológico 2015

The 2nd edition of the Cinemística film festival is included in the official UNESCO program that declared 2015 the International Year of Light . Cinemística® takes part in the international program as well as in the spanish program. Indeed, on December the 20th 2013 the United Nations (UN) in its 68th Annual Meeting proclaimed 2015 as the International Year of Light and Light-based Technologies. The International Year of Light aims to raise global awareness on the importance of light and its associated technologies in key areas of our contemporary world such as energy, education, health, communication, etc.

International Year of Light 2015It is obvious that cinematography benefits and is in fact immersed in the physical and intellectual mystery that is light, but surprisingly Cinemística is the only film festival internationally to join the International Year of Light proclaimed by the UNESCO. Russian film director Andrei Tarkovsky saw cinema as “the art of sculpting in time”, to which we might easily add it is also “the art of sculpting in light”. Perhaps these are equivalent terms: light and time go hand in hand, or are part of something substantial, subjacent, identical or immanent…

In the same way that 2014 edition, the Festival programme will be based in 14 seminars, all the weekends between spring equinox and summer solstice, that includes: shorts films, documentaries and/or feature films unpublished in Granada. Films projections with mystic, philosophic, religious, anthropologic and/or poetic nature, followed by a forum between the assistants. In the sessions can be included, like a retrospective, feature films from differents periods of history of cinema, from renowned directors.

La Corrala de Santiago (UGR, Historical Monument) is the festival neuralgic centre, which is located in Santiago street, 5, Granada (Realejo district). All projections will be in original version with Spanish subtitles. The discussions will be oversee by experts, critics and specialists in the different thematics.
