IDEA CAMP 2017: MOVING COMMUNITIES (Wish us luck!!!)
What if as a filmmaker I could provide psychological relief and inspire refugees by helping them to run their own independent cinema screenings so to show solidarity, create awareness and share information about the biggest humanitarian crisis of our generation?

8 DESTAQUES:
RUSSIAN CIRCLES + PUTAN CLUB @ RCA Club
Got inside a sold out gig just by asking people at the door, so kids, never forget, it's only sold out when you don't even try to get inside! PUTAN CLUB was an impressive surprise, their reputation preceeds them. No labels, no media coverage, no recording albums, just touring like maniacs to the most unexpected places in the world... RESPECT! Music is also cool, like their manifesto, it's free, they do what they want and the duo angry dynamic works well. RUSSIAN CIRCLES on the other hand played like gods but didn't open their mouths not even once to say hi! or goodbye! Whatever, the music is powerful and drives you down to a mental state of self-reflection and angst which... I enjoy! The other supporting band... CLOAKROOM! Shit, they should start their career by retiring early and go farming, so much emo-singing, was disgusting, had to leave the venue while they played but overall it was awesome!
ANTHEM OF THE HEART by Tatsuyuki Nagai
4.5 / 10
WTF Japan... seriously? This film is sweet and fucked up to the bone marrow at the same time. What? How the hell are kids so naive and cute and guilt trippin' all over the place?! Bullying in Japan is followed by the parents of the perpetuator public humiliating themselves with something unthinkable like... arm pit smell sauna or getting late for the prom.. I don't know what to say about this, it's just too much! Firstly, don't watch it, it's a waste of fuckin' time (even for children and especially for Western children I think they might interpret it exactly the opposite way as it's intended). Secondly, amazing pace, there's never a boring moment. Lastly, drawings are so clean and impeccable it's awful. Only Pixar could do worse than this!
SILENCE de MARTIN SCORCESE
3 / 10
Lets keep it short: Martin, an Italo-American director, renowned even in outer space, has the spoiled urge of doing something in Japan, cuz he can, so he reads a couple of wikipedia pages and since his "Last Temptation of Christ" was such a big (and understandable) success... why not, lets see, why not use a couple of Portuguese couple of jesuit priests going through all sorts of spiritual crisis for Mr. Scorcese to ramble about the same subject beaten down all over again: that all religions have the same theological background (i.e. Nature) and that faith is within us and the belief system itself is just a shell for the beauty of humanity and how cross-cultural it is to try and impose it by force. Thanks! I needed that! Very well shot by the way, love the smog shots although, I beg your pardon, I bet you both my testicles I could do better with a 40 million dollar budget.
TRAINSPOTTING 2 de Danny Boyle
6.5 / 10
Along with Seven, Pulp Fiction and Goodfellas... Trainspotting was probably the film I've seen the most during my adolescence. For that matter, I wore a "No Expectations" protection vest on the sequel and it was worth it. I haven't read "Ecstasy" by Irvine Welsh so I have no idea how creatively free was Boyle in this work but, whatever he did, he failed! T2 reads like an essay on filmmaking nostalgia, playing with the different textures between film and digital and accompanied by a bunch of overdue Northern 80's classics used in excess and out of place. Too much emphasis is put on the mythical Begbie that just couldn't deliver. Spud, Sickboy and, what's his name, Mark Rant-on did it all again for the sake of your moneys' worth handjob. The decadence was there, some new experimental takes on toilets and a couple of lookers, it's not like it's a bad film, how could it be... it was fine! Just not overwhelming... as expected actually, no?
