The gospel of the beast

Director - Sheron Dayoc

Philippines

"The Gospel of the Beast" is a coming-of-age film about Mateo, a 15-year-old boy known for being a troublemaker in school but possessing a genuine heart for his two siblings. He assumed the role of man of the house after his father went missing, doing his best to care for them. However, a confrontation with his schoolmate Gerald escalates into violence when he accidentally kills his rival. With nowhere else to turn, Mateo seeks help from a man he barely knows, Berto, who persuades him to run away and introduces him to the world of the syndicate. As Mateo takes up residence in the old mansion where the syndicate operates, his world darkens as he slowly succumbs to despair and violence. Delivering drugs and disposing of dead bodies became part of his daily routine. Over time, Berto evolves into a father figure for Mateo, and as their unique father-son relationship grows, Mateo gradually learns the harsh realities of life, death, and violence. After his best friend, Gudo,is killed by the same syndicate they work for, and he uncovers the truth about his father's death, Mateo finally loses himself to violence and despair, falling into a trap on his ultimate journey into beasthood.

Solids By The Seashore

Thailand

Rawipa Srisanguan

Southern Thai town. On a once-sandy beach eroded by high tides and now replaced by artificial rock sea walls, two young women meet. Shati is a local Muslim woman from a conservative family. Fon is an activist-turned-visual artist, in town for the her new art exhibition. The deeper they get to know each other, the bigger Shati’s internal conflict with her traditional roots - that forbids same-sex relationship - becomes. Caught between fear and desire, she is reminded of the old cautionary tales from her childhood told by her late and beloved grandmother.


During Shati’s pivotal moment, on Fon’s last night in town, the strange otherworldly occurrences in the tales of Shati’s grandmother gradually start to happen. A storm is brewing. Whether it’s all a dream or not, Shati is making a decision to forge a path for herself, and comes to terms with who she is.

"Hoàng Tự" is inspired by the abdication of King Tự Đức of the Nguyễn Dynasty, who couldn't produce offspring, so he passed the throne to his nephew. "Hoàng Tự" imagines a hypothetical journey that doesn't strictly follow historical events, aiming to raise the fundamental question of power, whether in times of crisis, those who hold special privileges, such as the old feudal regime, are willing to abandon personal interests, family lineage, accept their own impotence, and put hope in another talented individual among the masses, regardless of what is called "lineage", "bloodline", "royal descent", or not?

"I am very impressed with this film festival. Through the activities, I see that Vietnam has strong human resources, with many young people studying in the film industry who possess good knowledge and filming techniques. Therefore, I think this contributes significantly to film production. If given the chance, I would come to make films in Ho Chi Minh City. I will also introduce Vietnam to my colleagues in South Korea so that they can come here to collaborate on filmmaking. I believe that the future of Vietnamese cinema will be very promising."

“In recent times, the Vietnamese domestic film market has been experiencing strong and impressive growth with many films achieving high box office revenues, as well as receiving positive reviews from both domestic and international film critics. CNC views Vietnam as an important partner in the region, and there have been many effective collaborative activities such as providing film experts and supporting projects by young Vietnamese filmmakers.”


“A representative from CNC expressed interest in the proposals from the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and also indicated plans for more specific collaboration activities in the near future. For now, both parties have agreed to organize screenings of classic films from both countries, especially those internationally awarded films that have received support and investment from CNC and France in general, at the Vietnamese Cultural Center in Paris. CNC is also looking for opportunities to continue promoting Vietnamese cinema at French film festivals such as the Cannes Film Festival and the Three Continents Festival.”

Interim director, Korean Film Council

"Vietnamese cinema is similar to South Korea in the 2000s when the market was expanding, with many investment resources and numerous works being created.”


"I hope Vietnam will adopt appropriate directions, especially in utilizing and promoting local cultural elements. The experiences of South Korea should also serve as lessons for Vietnam to avoid the mistakes we have made."
