Through a comparative and global perspective, OTHERWISE centers issues important to our complex present, offering messages, expressions and reflections coming from specific creators and communities that can offer a different interpretation of the world, that is, an OTHERWISE perspective that can challenge mainstream representations. By centering audiovisual cultural productions that honor these communities, OTHERWISE becomes a place of encounter, discussion, empathy, and alliance building for professionalization and collaboration in the fields of Media, Film and Arts in close relation to academia.
Expand the reflections, representations, and discourses created by mainstream media supporting the creative processes of artists and filmmakers through local and international networks that cultivate good relations based on respect, honesty, and reciprocity.
OTHERWISE, Film Festival respects the integrity and intention of the artists, and supports the artistic visions and perspectives of artists working in the media arts. OTHERWISE pays special attention to community consent and accountability regarding the visual representations in the films. Acknowledgements and compliance with cultural protocols is at the center of fostering good relationships among each other.
