CREES-sponsored film at the 61st Ann Arbor Film Festival. "Dor" (Longing)
Jannes Callens, filmmaker
53 min., 2021, Bistrita, Romania
A cinematic and existential encounter between Belgian-Romanian Stefan Gota and a group of young shepherds. Gota returns to his native Romania to make a fresh start as a shepherd. Jannes Callens’s film moves at the same pace as a pasture crossing, between expedition, pause, and contemplation. Striking images of this profession merge with existential considerations. How can you guide a flock when you’re a little lost yourself?
