UNLESS WE DANCE
Audience award WORLDWIDE COMPETITION
In a city with the highest homicide rates in Colombia, Jonathan and hundreds of young people come together through dance to face the brutal fate of violence. A tribute to their act of resilience and to all the lives that have been lost along the way.
THE ONE NOTE MAN
Audience award INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION
Starring Bafta winning actor JASON WATKINS and the voice of IAN MCKELLEN. Music by Academy Award-winning composer STEPHEN WARBECK. A musical man lives a careful life. Each day is like the next, just how he likes it. One day, however, misfortune and fate collide, breaking his routine and rocking his world forever.
