#boza
Spain| 2020 | Documentary Film | 17 min. | French, Spanish | English subtitles
Synopsis
#boza, a film about people on the move from the African continent to Europe. In first person narrative and using videos and Selfies, Alhassane, Aminata, Mamadou, Mariam and Yahya tell their journeys and their goal of making “boza”. A word of disputed origin and exact meaning, “boza” is used by those trying to cross this particular border to describe the goal, and the act of successful crossing. The film #boza removes all filters, becoming a collective Selfie on migration.

PASSWORD: FAJARA
Spain, France | 2017 | Documentary Film | 17 min. | Arabic, English, French | English subtitles | World Premiere DOK Leipzig 2017
Synopsis
Abstract phantoms of trucks cross the screen. Infrared images. This is where refugees are waiting in the hope of reaching UK through the Eurotunnel. “Fajara” is the Arab word for explosion. But in the Jungle it was a word for: getting through, making it to the other side, arriving. The images become abstract, semantics dissolve. A haunting film about the phantoms of meaning (of words).

Barking – Moirai [OTN 04]
Barking´s productions are extensions of his background in live instrumentation and improvisation.
The Berlin-based Australian artist delivers on Openthenext label a forward thinking EP that is equally suited for advanced dance floors and home listening sessions.
The music is slow, enveloping, immersive and will surely delight the acid lines and slow techno beats lovers out there.
Moirai EP. can trigger a bunch of different emotions: between the magnetic intensity of ‘Scylla’, the melancholic and hypnotic vision of ‘Khasma“, the haunting voice of “Dionysia” will take you to another uplifting & rhythmic path. This #neodancefloor EP, as the Spanish label defines it, also includes a tripping remix of ‘Scylla’ s from Heap, the man behind Neubau & Discus Throwers.

Password:Fajara [O.S.T.] – Chris Blakey & Severine Sajous — Vinyl Collector Limited Edition [SOLD OUT]
«Fajara» means “explosion” in Arabic. In the «Jungle» of Calais, where migrants and refugees from different parts of the world camp in hope of one day reaching the United Kingdom through the Euro Tunnel, the word has and expanded meaning. «Farjara» means «to get through» or «to make it to the other side».
«Password: Fajara» is a haunting short film made by Severine Sajous & Patricia Sanchez which explores the migrant experience through the creation of a new vocabulary, a phantom meaning of words and sounds.
Chris Blakey, known for his work with Richard Fearless & Death in Vegas, teamed up with Sajous to write the original music score for «Password: Fajara».
Blakey transforms the sounds, interviews and songs recorded by Sajous during her extended stay in the «Jungle» into four, forward-thinking, cyclical, and immersive pieces. The melancholic melodies and powerful industrial sounds and breaks that Blakey has created bring to life the images of people in movement – «Fajara»; the infrared images of where they live – «Jungle»; the threat of being caught by the Police – «Abbas»; and the human traffic jams – «Dougar».
Password: Fajara (OST) is the third reference of the label .
The vinyl collector’s version is limited to 50 numbered copies. The cover is 300gr black cardboard decorated with handmade printed artwork.
