PRESENTAZIONE
Il concetto TUWUN rappresenta l'origine territoriale mapuche, che insieme a KVPALME, l'origine familiare, rappresenta l'identità mapuche radicata nel LOF, uno spazio territoriale che a sua volta è la base della struttura territoriale ancestrale di uno spazio più ampio, il WALLMAPU, l'intero territorio mapuche.
Questo concetto di Mapudungun, la lingua mapuche, dà origine a TUWUN Muestra de Cine Indígena de Wallmapu, creata con l'obiettivo di far conoscere attraverso il cinema, quell'identità e le realtà legate alla conoscenza ancestrale e al modo in cui è intesa. La vita dalla visione e dal rapporto di ogni popolo con il proprio ambiente, con il proprio territorio, con la propria storia, cultura e spiritualità e, quindi, dal loro punto di vista.
In questo senso, crediamo che la mostra TUWUN rappresenti una preziosa opportunità per conoscere il modo in cui la vita viene compresa dalla cultura delle popolazioni indigene e uno spazio importante per condividere la prospettiva e la realtà espresse dalle loro voci rappresentative, attraverso il cinema. Oltre a contribuire al decentramento del cinema e della cultura, generando un processo di circolazione a livello territoriale e portando la mostra itinerante e le sue attività complementari a un pubblico ampio e diversificato, nelle aree urbane e rurali, con l'esposizione delle opere partecipanti in vari spazi, come le comunità mapuche, le scuole e i centri culturali nelle città che generalmente hanno difficoltà ad accedere al cinema perché lontane dai grandi centri urbani, generando anche spazi Nvtram (conversazione) intorno al suo contenuti.
ATTIVITÀ PRINCIPALI
TUWUN è una mostra cinematografica indigena che consiste principalmente nella realizzazione di un'Esposizione Centrale, che si svolge ogni anno per 4 giorni, nel Centro Culturale Municipale di Villarrica, accompagnata da attività svolte in varie zone della città. E di una mostra itinerante, che copre vari luoghi di Wallmapu, il territorio ancestrale mapuche (Cile meridionale e Argentina) e si svolge dal mese successivo alla mostra centrale, fino a giugno dell'anno successivo, dove per i mapuche Il ciclo termina e ricomincia con la celebrazione di Wiñoy Tripantu (capodanno mapuche).
ATTIVITÀ COMPLEMENTARI
Nell'ambito di TUWUN, sviluppiamo varie attività complementari, sia durante la mostra centrale che durante la mostra itinerante. Tra questi, un TRAWUN (incontro), proiezioni speciali di ospiti delle popolazioni indigene e del popolo mapuche, NVTRAMCINE (forum cinematografici), proiezioni TUWUN inserite in altri concorsi cinematografici e culturali, proiezioni per scuole e comunità, cicli speciali nella stagione estiva. E un laboratorio per l'apprezzamento del cinema con identità, che abbiamo progettato per la formazione e la mediazione con diversi tipi di pubblico, come bambini e giovani in età scolare, adulti, leader di organizzazioni, comunità mapuche, ecc.
ALLEANZE STRATEGICHE
TUWUN Muestra de Cine Indígena de Wallmapu, è coordinato e prodotto da ADKIMVN Cine y Comunicación Mapuche, con il patrocinio del Centro Culturale Municipale di LIQUEN e dell'Illustre Municipio di Villarrica, e la collaborazione di una rete di organizzazioni, centri culturali, dipartimenti municipali della cultura, comunità mapuche e centri educativi.

Now in its 7th year, Damnationland is an invitational Maine-based short genre fest. We work hard to feature the best filmmakers and films from Maine. Our premiere event draws over 800 excited film fans to the beautiful State Theater in Portland every year in early October. The program then tours all over Maine before moving on to festivals and other screenings around the world. Last year, we screened from Ohio to Singapore, with a couple stops between.
This year, we are adding an international film competition to our annual get-down. In 2017, Damnationland will be featuring independent films from across the world for the first time. No longer contained to the borders of Maine, Damnationland is now opening up a few precious slots to filmmakers from around the world.
The highlight of the program will still be the premiere of 7 Maine-made dark genre pieces at the State Theatre. It's a huge event, with over 800 film viewers lining up last year to see Maine's best. But this year we will be supplementing the Maine shorts with additional screenings. All weekend, we hope to show the best dark genre work from around the world.
We want to show filmmakers outside of the state what Maine can do, and expose their films to our own rabid Damnationland audience.
So send us your dark genre films! We are looking for things that are dark, scary, disturbing, seedy, or just downright weird. Take a look at the archive on our website to see what sort of films we feature.
We can promise you great crowds for your screenings and a great time in one of the best small cities in the country. Winners will also receive a travel stipend to attend the festival here in Maine in mid-October. Our primary goal is to get you here. You show us your film, and the we can show you ours!
