SINOPSIS

Celia, una niña de once años, estudia en un colegio de monjas en Zaragoza y vive con su madre. Brisa, una nueva compañera, recién llegada de Barcelona, la empuja hacia una nueva etapa en su vida: la adolescencia. En este viaje, en la España de la Expo y de las Olimpiadas del año 92, Celia descubre que la vida está hecha de muchas verdades y algunas mentiras.

Ghazi Alqudcy's debut feature 'Temporary Visa' in Borneo and Barcelona - winning best film in the Discovery section

TEMPORARY VISA, the debut feature film of Ghazi Alqudcy screened recently in the Asian Film Festival Barcelona (Casa Asia), where it won the Best Film in the Discovery Section of the festival.

Here is what the judges had to say about the film:

“Best film for Discovery section awarded to Temporary Visa (Singapore) by Ghazi Alqudcy for approaching us in a very alive, uninhibited and truthful way - with a camera language in hand, direct and innovative - to a tough latent reality among all those young people who survive to find their site in a system that does not count or is designed for them, and we find it very suitable to reward the film in a section that tries to discover new directors and the employment of risky cinematic languages.” – Asian Film Festival Barcelona (Casa Asia)”

The film will also soon screen in SARAWAK - Rumah Filem and Borneo Art Collective (Ghazi will be attending the Q&A on 14th Nov 2019 - 8pm, doors open at 7.30pm)
