Guañape Sur
Italy, ZeLIG - school for documentary, television and new media
A barren rock island off the coast of Peru. No soil, no water, but hundreds of thousands of birds. For a period of ten years, only two guards may live on Guañape Sur. In the eleventh year though, hundreds of workers arrive for the harvest of Guano, the birds' excrement that can be used as a fertilizer or for producing dynamite.

Portrait of a Family
United States, The School of Visual Arts
Antonio Soto is 12 years old; he lives in a small rural town in Colombia. Today is his father’s funeral. Left with the responsibility to care for a broken family, he must step up and carry out his father’s last request; to be buried in the suit that has been passed on through generations of Soto men.
