Z365" or "Festival all year round" is the new strategic point of the Festival in which converge investigation, accompaniment and development of new talents (Ikusmira Berriak, Nest); training and cinematic knowledge transfer (Elías Querejeta Zine Eskola, Zinemaldia + Plus, Filmmakers' dialogue); and investigation, disclosure and cinematic thought (Z70 project, Thought and Discussion and Research and publications).
Latest work by Carlos Reygadas (Batalla en el cielo, Stellet Licht/Luz silenciosa), one of the best known Mexican filmmakers on the international scene. This competing film in the Official Selection at the Festival de Cannes, winner of its Best Director Award, describes the life of Juan and his family in a country house, a world apart of pleasure and suffering. Non-one knows if these two worlds are complementary or if they strive to eliminate one another.
