Sierra Leone is the second poorest country in the world. After overcoming one of the toughest and bloodiest civil wars, in 2014 they had to face one of the most devastating epidemics in living memory, Ebola. The consequences of those horrors ended up extinguishing the spark of development and plunging the population into the total darkness in which they have been living since 1992. The lack of a stable light supply is a major constraint to the development of medical work, directly affecting the life expectancy of the Sierra Leonean people. The images obtained are part of the reality of the situation found after the hospital ward duty in the district of Koinadugu.
The association congratulates them on this great work and wishes them the best of luck.

- La mala familia’, the film by directors Nacho A. Villar and Luis Rojo and produced by Blur, presented at the Seville Film Festival.
The documentary film by debutant directors Nacho A. Villar and Luis Rojo, produced by Blur, Tasio, Icónica and Birth, has been presented these days at the Seville Film Festival in the Nuevas Olas section.
It’s summer in Madrid and it’s unbearably hot. Like all the kids who can’t afford a holiday, Nata, Sebas, Jamel, Chimaira and the rest of the kids from LA MALA FAMILIA decide to go to the San Juan reservoir to enjoy the day and cool off. The whole group hasn’t been together for a while, so they have decided to take advantage of the penitentiary leave of one of them, Andrés, to welcome him and celebrate the unconditional friendship that unites them and that has made them overcome so many things together these past years. They have all changed a lot since the trial that transformed their lives, and although they all struggle to make a good life for themselves, the constant threat of the sentence that forces them to stick together is a pressure cooker that reminds them all the time that kids like them have no chance of redemption.
Nacho A. Villar and Luis Rojo are two audiovisual creators from the BRBR collective created in 2014 and based in Madrid and London. Trained in Audiovisual Communication and Fine Arts respectively, they work together in the creation and direction of music videos (C. Tangana, Territoire), advertising and short films such as 2/05 (2014), Niña (2015) and the series Heroes of Today (2019-2020). Nacho A. Villar presented his first feature-length documentary La maleta de Helios (at BAFICI and Havana) with Javier Angulo in 2019. Their filmographies have been recognised by the Berlinale Talents, the Best Directors Award by El Ojo Iberoamérica, the Saatchi & Saatchi New Creators Showcase, or the Cannes Lions in Entertainment for Sport in 2019. The documentary film La mala familia (2022) is his latest project.
