Session: Resiliencies

This session brings together three short films that explore the power of sport and physical expression as pathways to personal transformation. In Aliento, a Paralympic swimmer finds in his coach the inspiration to regain his lost confidence. Cool Hand Jesus blends skill and balance in an acrobatic piece that reflects on mental health and the search for control through yo-yo movement. Finally, Carte Noir takes us into an intimate journey where a young woman, caught between anger and depression, seeks redemption in one final conversation with her father. An emotional journey about fragility, discipline, and the strength to keep moving forward.
