NOME, the third feature film by Guinean filmmaker Sana Na N’Hada, uses intoxicating images to tell the story of the war of independence in the former Portuguese colony of Guinea-Bissau, which was liberated in 1974 after thirteen years of conflict.
After impregnating his cousin Nambú, the young Nome flees his village in the late 1960s for fear of disgrace and joins the guerrillas. After the war, he moved to Bissau to work as a government official. While exploiting his position for dubious business deals, he denies his village origins, betrays his comrades-in-arms and increasingly loses his connection to nature and the spiritual world. Eventually, Nome returns to his home village with new plans for the future…
Director Sana Na N’Hada, born in 1950, joined Amílcar Cabral’s Marxist guerrillas at the age of 16. As he was not fit to fight, he was soon sent to Cuba to train as a filmmaker together with four other young Guineans. When he returned to Guinea-Bissau in 1972, he tirelessly documented the struggle of his comrades and the first years of independence until 1977. The flow of the narrative alternates between past, present and future and interweaves his own documentary 16 mm archive material with dream-like film images. NOME premiered as part of the ACID selection at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival and was celebrated at this year’s International Film Festival Rotterdam, not least for its visual language.

The neon-hued Motel Destino is a roadside sex hotel under the burning blue skies of the coast of Northern Brazil, run by the boorish Elias and his frustrated, beautiful wife Dayana. When 21 year-old Heraldo finds himself at the motel, after messing up a hit and going on the run from both the police and the gang he let down, Dayana finds herself intrigued and lets him stay. As the two navigate a dance of power, desire and liberation, a dangerous plan for freedom emerges. In this tropical noir, loyalties and desires intertwine, revealing that destiny has its own enigmatic design.
Basel Adra, a young Palestinian activist from Masafer Yatta on the West Bank, has been fighting the mass expulsion of his community by Israel’s occupation since childhood. He documents the slow-motion eradication of the villages in his home region where soldiers deployed by the Israeli government are gradually demolishing houses and driving out their residents. At some point, he meets Yuval, an Israeli journalist, who supports him in his efforts. An unlikely alliance develops. But the relationship between the two is strained by the enormous inequality between them: Basel lives under military occupation while Yuval lives freely and without restrictions. This film by a Palestinian-Israeli collective of four young activists has been made as an act of creative resistance on the path to greater justice.
