The first International Artistic Residences of Cinematographic Creation – BAICC started in 2017: a very wished project by the (S8) that came into being thanks to the support of AC/E and the LIFT, reaffirming the strong commitment of the Mostra with supporting training and artistic creation in alternative spaces.
After a successful first call with more than 15 proposals received, ‘Relieves’ of Tono Mejuto was the project selected to be developed during five weeks in the Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto. The final result will be screened, in world-wide première, during the 9th Mostra de Cinema Periférico, that will take place in A Coruña from 25th May to 3rd June 2018.
We interviewed Tono during his last days in Canada. Find below his comments about his experience in the residence and some advances of his work: info
Aliados en y con la periferia
El (S8) ha dado mucho de sí. Durante los días de la Mostra, hemos explorado de la mano de nuestros protagonistas los más recónditos rincones de la Antigua Cárcel, para hablar del trabajo y las impresiones de cada uno. La serie comienza con Ángel Rueda, director del (S8), y Beatriz Navas, responsable de audiovisuales de La Casa Encendida, que sostienen un diálogo sobre los nuevos caminos del cine y, sobre todo, las vías por las que las creaciones más estimulantes se van abriendo paso hasta el público.
