Recommend this film

‘Squatting is still a legal occupation’. According to Section 6 of the Criminal Law Act 1977 the occupation of empty property in the UK is not illegal. In London there are more than 13.000 people living in squats. In 6 eclectic stories “5 1/2 Roofs” gives us six visions of squatting in London and shares with us the freedom and conflicts brought by living such a transitional, insecure lifestyle. We start with a group of young professionals from Eastern Europe who move from empty house to empty house and when raided by the police, they fly away on holiday. ‘There’s always a negative view of squatters. Well look at us, we work nine to five’. We follow various other groups of people who live together in order to freely express their creativity. One man who on losing his community is able to see the value of sharing his space with others comments: ‘I’ve come back to my council flat but then I look out the door and I know I am surrounded by people who don’t want anything whatsoever to do with one another’. Elsewhere a woman despairs and feels trapped by other people’s lack of consideration and disgusting habits and dreams of moving away. While the Urban Nomads are seen to be in a social experiment they hope will help change the world, we meet a community trying to save a local business from being developed into expensive flats, which the locals would never be able to afford. “5 1/2 Roofs” does not want to impose an opinion on you; it opens doors, challenges preconceived views and with a poetic and sympathetic eye it invites you into a world most people never see.

Single Shot Indonesia

Single Shot Indonesia

I mere end ti år, vender den hollandske filminstruktør Leonard Retel Helmrich tilbage til sine bedsteforældres hjemland, for at iagttage og filme de tumultagtige hastige ændringer i de år, af den økonomiske og kulturelle globalisering i Indonesien. Dafilms portalen viser nu alle tre film fra hans berømte dokumentarfilm trilogi (herunder den sidste del – Position among the Stars). På baggrund af spændinger i det indonesiske samfund, udfolder der sig, foran Helmrichs kamera, livet af Shamsudinns familien, der i slumkvartererne i Jakarta oplever sin hverdagshistorie om deres daglige arbejde og bekymringer, kærlighed og gensidig fjendtlighed. I ugen fra 21. maj kan I se de første to film fra trilogien -The Eye of the Day og Shape of the Moon gratis.

Østlige forjættelse

Østlige forjættelse

I denne uge tilbydes Dafilms portalens tilskuere en god portion europæisk eksotisme. Rundvisningen på det karakteristiske landskab i Østeuropa bliver formidlet til tilskuere i tre bemærkelsesværdige dokumentarfilm. Selv om filmene „Shutka Book of Records“, „The Mosquito Problem“, „Bahrtalo“ fortæller historier om mennesker, der for det meste er temmelige fattige, skal man ikke forvente tunge sociale dramaer. Man kan nemlig have et lykkeligt liv også uden penge!
