Fashion vs Words is a fascinating documentary that explores the deep interaction between Fashion and words as a form of human expression. This film is a revealing journey through the worlds of Fashion and Language, exploring how these two, apparently different, ways of expression weave together and influence each other. Through the captivating looks and narratives of our leading roles –photographer David Gomez-Maestre and fashion designer Karim Adduchi– along with the verses of Caterina Albert and Víctor Català, we show how fashion is not just an array of garments, but a statement and a way to communicate identity, thoughts, and emotions. And words, whether as folk narratives, literature, poetry or inspiration, play a crucial role within individual expression.

In Residence: Ricardo Bofill

MovieDocumentary

There are houses, and then there’s Ricardo Bofill’s house: a brutalist former cement factory of epic proportions on the outskirts of Barcelona, Spain. A grandiose monument to industrial architecture in the Catalonian town of Sant Just Desvern, La Fabrica is a poetic and personal space that redefines the notion of the conventional home. “Nowadays we want everyone who comes through our door to feel comfortable, but that's not Bofill’s idea here,” says filmmaker Albert Moya, who directed latest installment of In Residence. “It goes much further, you connect with the space in a more spiritual way.” Rising above lush gardens that mask the grounds’ unglamorous roots, the eight remaining silos that once hosted an endless stream of workmen and heavy machinery now house both Bofill’s private life, and his award-winning architecture and urban design practice.

Lolo & Sosaku: The Western Archive

MovieDramaMusic

Lolo & Sosaku are two sound artists, from Argentina and Japan, who have been collaborating in Barcelona since 2004. With a combination of self-made instruments and cheeky contraptions, they create sound sculptures: machines and installations whose mechanical, repetitive noises can madden or enchant. They take the 'automatism' of art to new extremes.
