<div>&nbsp;</div> <div><span>Autrement (In another way) is a documentary that explores the region known as the "least developed" the world: West Africa.</span><span>&nbsp;&nbsp;There is something extraordinary happening here: social groups and individuals who imagine other ways of thinking and acting. Is there an option to the dominant global model of development? Is it possible to do science differently? Can we create and innovate in places with limited financial and material resources? Scientists, farmers, teachers and students, sociologists, engineers, doctors, traditional and contemporary dancers raise their voice: We can do it in another way!&nbsp;</span><span>Africa is alive, dancing at their own pace, and offers hope to other societies willing to wake up.&nbsp;</span><span>Autrement is a "face to face" with Africa through inspiring projects: from workshops of DNA with kitchen products to acclaimed contemporary video-dance , coming through the sacred groves and other local initiatives that show, this co-production in Mexico, Benin, Malaysia, a reality of diversity, colonization, resistance and creation.</span></div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Autrement is a story of conviction, responsability and freedom. In this dynamic world it is important to ask questions differently, at all levels. Autrement gives voice to other people in the forgotten countries, those of West Africa, a region that needs foreign aid and consumes foreign innovations. It is recognized as the recipient and rarely as a donor. Another role is possible for Africa and thus, another role for developing countries and their citizens is also possible. Autrement puts into question the dominant systems that define our societies, delineated by only a few, while the rest of the world try to copy, use or in the best case adapt, rather than propose according to their own needs and context. Given this lack of vision, an idea born of decolonization, of unity and integration, not confrontation and conflict, prompting societies to act and create, to dance at their own pace.</div> <div> <div> <p dir="ltr"><span>The objective of this project is to see Africa to see oneself.</span><span> Being a medium that allows people from other regions of the world to identify. The historical context, realities and challenges of the film are common to many regions of the world. The power to make free choices comes from self-knowledge, as well as from a broader vision of alternatives. </span><span>The idea of the film is to show that another course of action is possible, using the science and art as pillars.</span><span> Science that offers alternatives to high-tech and high cost. Art where innovation does not deny its own cultural and social origin. </span><span>By integrating science, art and culture making multidisciplinary discussions we celebrate the triumph of diversity over homogeneity.</span><span> Collaborations with researchers in genetics and contemporary dancers is an unusual composition: human movement and scientific research. Are they really are so different? This partnership draws an innovative narrative to tell this story.</span></p> </div> <div> <div> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> <div> <p dir="ltr"><span>Autrement (De otra manera)</span><span> es un documental que explora la regi&oacute;n conocida como la &ldquo;menos desarrollada&rdquo; del planeta: &Aacute;frica del Oeste.</span><span> Aqu&iacute; existe algo extraordinario: grupos sociales e individuos que imaginan otras formas de pensar y actuar: &iquest;Existe una opci&oacute;n al modelo global dominante de desarrollo? &iquest;Es posible hacer ciencia de otra manera? &iquest;Podemos crear e innovar en lugares con limitaciones econ&oacute;micas y materiales?&nbsp;</span><span>Cient&iacute;ficos, campesinos, profesores y estudiantes, soci&oacute;logos, ingenieros, m&eacute;dicos tradicionales y bailarines contempor&aacute;neos alzan la voz: &iexcl;Podemos hacerlo de otra manera! </span><span>&Aacute;frica esta viva, danza a su propio ritmo, y ofrece esperanza a otras sociedades dispuestas a despertar. </span><span>Autrement es un &ldquo;frente a frente&rdquo; con &Aacute;frica a trav&eacute;s de proyectos inspiradores: desde talleres para la extracci&oacute;n de ADN con productos de cocina hasta video-danzas contempor&aacute;nea que aclama la reivindicaci&oacute;n, pasando por los bosques sagrados y otras iniciativas locales que dejan ver, en esta co-producci&oacute;n M&eacute;xico-Ben&iacute;n-Malasia, una realidad de diversidad, descolonizaci&oacute;n, resistencia y creaci&oacute;n.</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>Autrement es una historia de convicci&oacute;n, responsabilidad, libertad y satisfacci&oacute;n. En este mundo din&aacute;mico y en este momento es importante plantearnos las cosas de otra manera, en todos los niveles. Autrement le da la voz a los habitantes de pa&iacute;ses olvidados, los de &Aacute;frica del Oeste, una regi&oacute;n que necesita ayuda externa y que consume las innovaciones de otros, reconocida como receptora y pocas veces como donadora. Otro rol para &Aacute;frica es posible y as&iacute;, otro rol para los pa&iacute;ses en v&iacute;as de desarrollo y sus ciudadanos tambi&eacute;n es posible. Autrement pone en tela de juicio a los sistemas dominantes que definen nuestras sociedades, delineados por solo algunos y que el resto del mundo intenta copiar, aplicar o en el mejor de los casos adaptar, en lugar de </span><span>proponer de acuerdo a sus propias necesidades y contexto</span><span>. Ante esta falta de visi&oacute;n, nace una idea descolonizadora, de unidad e integraci&oacute;n, no de enfrentamiento y conflicto, incitando a las sociedades para actuar y crear, para danzar a su propio ritmo.</span></p> <div> <div> <p dir="ltr"><span>La edici&oacute;n del documental abarcar&aacute; varios estilos distintos adapt&aacute;ndose a las necesidades de la historia. De un ritmo lento y contemplativo a un ritmo acelerado y picado, la edici&oacute;n se ir&aacute; adaptando a las propiedades est&eacute;ticas del material. Bajo este sentido, las partes de la historia tratando de ciencia moderna aplicada se caracterizar&aacute;n por una edici&oacute;n lineal y literal, en cambio, en las partes de ciencia hecha de otra manera en el contexto africano </span><span>la edici&oacute;n explora las relaciones intuitivas entre el contenido y lo visual revelando as&iacute; la diversidad de narraciones posibles.</span><span> Se usar&aacute;n recursos de edici&oacute;n como compartir pantallas con distintas im&aacute;genes, acelerar secuencias, jugar con transparencia de capas de im&aacute;genes y acelerar el tiempo con timelapses. </span><span>La edici&oacute;n se entiende como otra herramienta para apoyar nuestro discurso de base: hacer las cosas de "otra manera".</span></p> </div> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> </div> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> </div> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span><br /></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>CREW List</span>:</p> <p dir="ltr"><span>Direction: Jos&eacute; Luis Aranda &amp; Camilo Rodriguez</span></p> <p dir="ltr">Production: Camilo Rodriguez Beltr&aacute;n, Katia Morales</p> <p dir="ltr"><span>DIrector of Photography: Jos&eacute; Luis Aranda</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>Editing: Patrick Danse</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>Direct Sound: Jose Luis Aranda</span></p> <p dir="ltr">Sound Design: Camilo Rodriguez Beltr&aacute;n and Patrick Danse</p> <p><strong><strong><br /></strong></strong></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>CONTACT:</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>Katia Morales Gait&aacute;n - Producer</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>Address: R&iacute;o Guadalquivir 58 Int 406.
