Early Bird 2019 Special mention for directing

Mokuso

Ecole cantonale d'art de Lausanne, Switzerland

Synopsis

In a school class, some students exchange complicit glances. Silent and calm on the surface, a world of mockery and fury is hidden in their telephone conversations through their devices that they hide subtly. So when 'the new girl' arrives in the classroom, it is for them a new prey to indulge in.

Director: Moreno Cabitza

Director's bio

I am a genevan student of Sardinian and Caribbean origin.
I started directing through some videos amongst friends before joining the ECAL in 2015. I then made a documentary in Sardinia in my paternal village about a gas tank delivery guy, as well as "Mokuso", a fiction shot on only one avenue, the one I have now been living on for 19 years.
