André Téchiné, cinéaste insoumis

Marcelo Ndong, a sexagenary African artist trained in Spain, and who now runs a small nursery in Malabo (Equatorial Guinea), receives an unexpected proposal. As in so many other occasions he must mount a play, but this time, the argument will be him. His own life. Supported by two of his best students, Marcelo will create in Malabo a play that will be represented in Santiago de Compostela. A personal and creative journey that will take them from post-colonial Guinea and Franco's Spain, to the present of both countries, to go discovering little by little, through his incredible life journey as a mime, musician, actor, circus, but above all, migrant, the strong, and until now little known cultural ties that unite Equatorial Guinea and Spain. The documentary "Manoliño Nguema" is an argument in favor of migration, a positive look at the integrating and healing power of culture.

Karmu, A Place in the Sun: Auto mechanic by day, and urban shaman by night, Karmu welcomed all those in need into his house. Part West Indian curandero, masterful lay counselor, hands on healer and down to earth holy man, Karmu fed the hungry, housed the homeless and healed the sick with his herbal remedies and therapeutic massage to which he added a 'plus element' channeled from the cosmic arena. Quite a comedian, he lifted up the spirits of those who were depressed with his hysterically funny banter. Through the use of archival footage and contemporary testimonials from numerous professionals such as Dr. Andrew Weil and Daniel Goleman, Ph.D., the film chronicles the lasting effect Karmu has had on those he touched.
