In a special double screening, DER LEONE HAVE SEPT CABEÇAS (Glauber Rocha, 1970) and MARLENE (Barbara Marcel, 2022) were shown at the Cinemateca Brasileira. While DER LEONE, filmed in Congo Brazzaville in 1969, is part of Rocha's Tricontinental Cinema project, MARLENE, filmed in Kinshasa, just across the river, is the result of the screening and reception of Rocha's film today and the debates about militant cinema. The screening was followed by a conversation between Marcel, journalist, researcher and film festival curator Mariana Queen Nwabsili and film studies professor Mateus Araújo.

Screening event: Other transitions
Wannabe starlet trees, a phone sex worker in Vetagrande Zacatecas, Mexico, and animated Harz Roller canaries in Tenerife precede an underground conversation about transitioning. These works reshuffle the categories of human, nature, and artifice, pointing towards moments of indefinition, refusal, and chasing collective dreams against the odds.
Congratulations! You are still in the running for becoming, Ann Oren, 2015 (10:22)
Heavy Blood, Naomi Rincón-Gallardo, 2018 (18:43)

Knowledge Tie is a collaboration between the Berlin Artistic Research Grant Programme and SİNEMA TRANSTOPIA. The public programme contributes to the ongoing unfolding of research-based practices in the arts, their foundations and forms of mediation. The programme thus responds to the growing importance of art for knowledge in society and independent forms of knowledge formation.
The 4th event included a presentation by Deborah Shaw and a screening of Humo sobre los Humedales, a film by Barbara Marcel, followed by a conversation with Shaw and Marcel moderated by Paz Guevara.
Following the work of environmentalists and communicators involved in social movements in the city of Concepción, the film Humo sobre los Humedales (Smoke over wetlands) portrays the role of women in the uprising that took to the streets of Santiago and all the cities of Chile between October and December 2019.
