The Frame Beyond<\/span><\/i> presents two virtual reality works selected from the latest international scene, in cooperation with EXT (Extended Realities Research Centre at the University of Milan \u2018La statale\u2019). This year, Concorto Film Festival gives an insight into what is known as \u201cpro-social VR\u201d, featuring works that use immersive technologies to address political issues, drawing viewers into the narrative\u2019s emotional core.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

In <\/span>The Dollhouse<\/span><\/i> by Charlotte Bruneau and Dominic Desjardins, we experience the point of view of Juniper, a 9-year-old girl, as she begins to understand that her family abuses its power over Magnolia, a domestic worker who comes from afar. Through the fragile universe of a dollhouse, we are drawn into family dynamics and asked to step into the shoes of those who believe they can control others. <\/span>Less Than 5gr of Saffron <\/span><\/i>by N\u00e9gar Motevalymeidanshah invites us on a journey with Golnaz, a young Iranian woman who migrated to Germany, taking us in an intimate and painful experience triggered by the scent of saffron: an ordinary activity, like cooking a dish associated with one\u2019s home, brings back the traumatic memory of migration and loss. The involuntary memory associated with smell triggers a whirlwind of intense, uncontrollable emotions, which are visually expressed through an all-encompassing form<\/span>.<\/p>\r\n
