State of Affairs
State of Affairs focuses on documentaries that dissect the present moment: politics, economics, institutions and the ways we live today. This is a section that does not shy away from complexity, but translates it into human-scale stories. The films often function as reports, but also as diagnoses of our time. We see how “big” decisions penetrate private lives and reshape everyday realities. The programme opens topics we often ignore until they become urgent. The authors avoid simple villains, revealing networks of interests, fears and consequences. State of Affairs calls for critical viewing – recognising narratives, manipulations and subtle forms of violence. These films demand patience, but reward it with insight. Neutrality is rarely an option after the screening – and that is precisely their value. If you are looking for documentaries that challenge you intellectually and ground you emotionally, this is the section for you.
