Puay Chai

Puay Chai (培才 meaning to cultivate talent) is a Chinese vernacular school located in Petaling Jaya, one of the most densely populated cities in Klang Valley of Malaysia. The children go about their day while the camera seeks to observe.



Our Faith / Nuestra Fe

(Watashi [tachi] no shinko / Nuestra Fe)

- Director: Kayama Shota (Japan)

The Temple of Guadalupe in Mexico was built by conquistadors. But the Virgen de Guadalupe, who is enshrined there, revives memories of that past in the present, as a reincarnation of an ancient god wearing a mask. A one-shot film on the Día de Guadalupe shows the history of the massacre/miscegenation.
