Berlinale Talents – Censored:Limits of Our Dreams
In a Berlinale Talents edition where dreaming is invitation to freedom of expression, there is a need to consider the limits sometimes placed on our imagination and the nightmare this constitutes for those concerned. As populist governments keen to engage in culture wars harden their stances, censorship too is on the rise and takes on many forms, intervening throughout the entire chain of production. And filmmakers: if censorship is a state-based or institutionally-led practise, how does it affect artistic decisions or even lead to self-censorship in the worst case? Based on live interventions from 2021 Berlinale Talents from South East Asia, and mirrored by an expert of the situation in nowadays’ Brazil, this bold session invites everyone to dream harder on both local and global scales, until the nightmare ends.
