Best Documentary 2022 Winner

Important Things Don’t Matter

Documentary made for more than five years in numerous countries in Africa and Europe, to photograph and film through encounters with people and places that suffer the consequences of human actions. An intimate trip, a walk through this ephemeral life where the author pretends to be another neighbor, regardless of where he is, with phrases that were written during the coexistence, to unite words and images in a single feeling, without prejudice, avoiding the word injustice to suggest questions we can ask ourselves. An invitation to the viewer to put his own voice on this long journey full of life, to discover the relationship between North and South. The documentary shares a book published months before that could be considered as its own script and, on its first page it says: a book with more questions than answers.
