Two men are walking. They’re running away. They make their way through different landscapes in search of a more peaceful and warmer land. Like migratory birds, Bi txirula is a voyage where, apart from doing everything needed to survive (find food, sleep, find shelter.…), there is time to reflect on the possibility of another world.

“Some instruments, like trumpets, make us think of courage. Others, like the flute, of sweetness. And there are others, like the organ, which steal the soul from the heavenly (Aristoteles). My whole family has turned to Catholicism. The distance between them was growing by the day, so I decided to make a film to understand how the Holy Spirit had entered their lives and, somehow, mine too. A film about fondness, absences, empty spaces and distances”. (David Arratibel)
Migueltxo Molina, Pablo Iraburu, Igor Otxoa
103 min.
An expedition of Basque archaeologists travels to a remote island on the east coast of the United States. Ancient documents show that the spot was the setting of a story of meeting and cooperation between Basque whalers and American natives. Beneath the mist and amid a maze of stones and trees, we follow the members of the expedition in their search. If they find what they dream of, they’ll show that another world was possible, that another world is possible.
Eñaut Castagnet, Ximun Fuchs
100 min.
During the labour reforms of 2016, in a small French town, the Radial company closes its doors after a bitter strike. Jeansé, Juliette, Bruno, Christine and Pierre meet to ‘celebrate’ their insulting redundancy pay-off. On the way home, Bruno has a violent scuffle at a police roadblock. Non is an anthology film about the contagious and furious protest by a group of workers. People absorbed by madness in the struggle to keep the little dignity they have left.
Juan Bautista Berasategi Luzuriaga

Nur moves with her parents to live in China. There she makes new friends and today she is about to celebrate the birthday of one of them, Guo Guo. They meet for the occasion at an immense amusement park; however, while playing they realise that the guest of honour has disappeared. Their search for the boy will lead them into a maze; to get out they must solve the mysteries as they come to them, thereby enabling them to make their way past the dragon at each of the nine doors.
Iñigo Royo, Iñigo Fernández Ostolaza

Short film
Euxebi’s father was killed during the Spanish civil war. In her youth, Euxebi suffered Francoist repression and, to this day, despite the fact that the dictatorship ended long ago, she has not had the change to recover the memory of her father. After many years, when they finally open the grave where her father is, Euxebi puts a picture next to his bones.

Short film
The film Euritan is a review of the narrative Klara eta biok, written by Itxaro Borda in 1985. Pitting the author against the words of her past, it updates her view on the peripheral relationship around the Basque character.
