The Short Films of Eduardo Williams

16 February @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm

Pay as you like

We are pleased to bring a full retrospective of Eduardo “Teddy” Williams’ work to Scotland in February 2025.

Williams started his film studies at the Universidad del Cine in Buenos Aires before advancing to Le Fresnoy – Studio national des arts contemporains in France. Initially, his short films were rooted in his homeland of Argentina; however, his more recent projects, filmed in diverse locations worldwide, have increasingly incorporated themes of travel uncertainty and the spontaneous relationships that arise in unfamiliar settings as integral elements of his filmmaking approach.

Williams’ short films, COULD SEE A PUMA (2011) and THAT I’M FALLING? (2013), made their debut at the Cinéfondation and the Directors’ Fortnight at the Cannes Film Festival, respectively, followed by TÔI QUÊN RÔI! (2014), which premiered at the FID in Marseille. Retrospectives of his work have been held at various venues, including the Cinémathèque Française in Paris and the Valdivia International Film Festival in Chile.

In 2020, he introduced PARSI, co-directed with Mariano Blatt, which premiered at the Berlinale.

His works challenge viewers to see the world through a different lens, encouraging contemplation and emotional engagement. By focusing on often overlooked subjects and employing innovative techniques, Williams has carved out a unique space in contemporary cinema.

📅 16th Feb, 7.30pm (screening starts 8pm)

Teddy Williams will be in attendance at this event.

The Short Films

Teddy Williams often employs long takes and natural lighting, creating an immersive experience that feels both intimate and expansive. His camera work is never intrusive, instead inviting viewers to become silent observers in the worlds he creates.

Throughout his works, Williams consistently explores themes of identity, our relationship with nature, and the complexities of human connection. These thematic elements are not just explored but interwoven into the very fabric of his visual storytelling, creating layers of meaning that reward repeated viewings.

Parsi

Parsi stands as a testament to Williams’ ability to weave cultural narratives into his work. This short film, with its vibrant imagery and poignant storytelling, offers a window into a world rarely seen on screen. Williams’ camera becomes a silent observer, capturing the nuances of Parsi culture with a sensitivity that is both respectful and revealing.

Pude ver un puma

In Pude ver un puma (I Can See a Puma), Williams takes us on a journey into the heart of the wild. This film showcases his masterful use of natural landscapes, turning them into characters in their own right. The tension between human presence and untamed nature creates a palpable atmosphere that lingers long after the final frame.

Que je tombe tout le temps?

Que je tombe tout le temps? (Why Do I Fall All the Time?) is perhaps Williams’ most experimental work. Here, he explores the human body in motion, creating a visual poem that challenges our perceptions of gravity and grace. The film’s innovative use of choreography and cinematography blurs the line between dance and everyday movement.

Tôi quên rôi!
In Tôi quên rôi! (I Forgot!), Williams tackles themes of memory and identity with a delicate touch. This poignant exploration of forgetfulness and its impact on personal relationships showcases his ability to convey complex emotions through subtle visual cues and minimal dialogue.
