When the words cannot convey meaning nor the mouth’s willing to speak, we let the eyes and the body do the talking while moving to the music. As the film canvas gets darker and the moving pictures are slowly retreating, the night stories start to unravel. A time when both the audience and the Han take a breather and let all that’s in the soul pour out, while the body sways freely to the melodies of guitar, oud, fiddle, accordion, or the DJ’s mixtape…

Because, paradoxically, even there, under the stars and among vibrating bodies and amiable faces, we find the strength to care about reality and to keep on caring for the other. This time, however, caring wears a special glee that mustn’t be forgotten – it speaks hope, not naive but defiant, and an eagerness to hold on to the idea for a better tomorrow. 

See you in the summer nights, under the open sky!
