Family Portrait, Directed by Lucy Kerr 

Winner: Boccalino d’Oro for Best Director at Locarno Film Festival; Best Director Award from Black Canvas Film Festival; the Best Picture, Best Actress, and the Best Artistic Contribution (Camera, Sound, Production Design) Awards from Hainan Island International Film Festival 

Set at the dawn of Covid, Family Portrait follows a sprawling family on a morning when they have planned a group picture. After the mother disappears and one of the daughters becomes increasingly anxious to find her and take the picture, the rest of the family appears to resist any attempt to gather. Initially presenting itself as a realistic portrayal of a family on an idle but hectic summer day, the film progressively descends into a realm where time and space lose their grip, transforming the family portrait into a solemn and enigmatic ritual of transition
