About the Event

OMI NOBU (THE NEW MAN)

R: Carlos Yuri Ceuninck; Kapverden/Sudan/BE/DE 2023; OmeU; DCP; 64 min.

In Ribeira Funda, einem verlassenen Dorf auf der Insel São Nicolau, scheint die Zeit stehen geblieben zu sein. Quirino lebt dort seit über 30 Jahren. Der alte Fischer verbringt seine Tage mit einem Huhn und einem Transistorradio, der einzigen Verbindung zur Außenwelt. OMI NOBU untersucht die Beziehung des Menschen zur Zeit. Als 76-jähriger wird der Alltag in der Isolation des Dorfes zwischen Meer und Bergen schwierig. Quirino steht vor dem Dilemma, den Ort, an dem er immer gelebt hat, zu verlassen, oder sein Leben dort zu beenden. In diesem intimen Porträt spricht der kapverdische Filmemacher Carlos Yuri Ceuninck über die Verbundenheit des Menschen mit der Erde und würdigt diesen ehemaligen Fischer.
In Anwesenheit des Regisseurs Carlos Yuri Ceuninck.

In Ribeira Funda, an abandoned village on the island of São Nicolau, time seems to stand still. Quirino has lived there for over 30 years. The old fisherman spends his days in the company of a hen and a transistor radio, his only link with the outside world. OMI NOBU explores the human relationship with time. At 76 years of age, Quirino’s daily life is becoming difficult, isolated in this village between the sea and the mountains. Quirino is faced with a dilemma: whether to leave the place where he has always lived or end his days there. In this intimate portrait, Cape Verdean filmmaker Carlos Yuri Ceuninck explores man’s attachment to the land and pays tribute to this former fisherman.
