But their love does not accept divisions, barriers, obstacles. They are a pair of street artists: freedom flows through their veins. Boundaries do not exist. The man cannot stand the &#8220;death strip&#8221; that separates him from her. And day after day, with tenacity, imagination and love, he tries to return to her arms.     <\/p><p> <\/p><p><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-29282 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crooswalk-300x174.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"174\" srcset=\"https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crooswalk-300x174.png 300w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crooswalk-600x347.png 600w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crooswalk-1024x593.png 1024w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crooswalk-768x444.png 768w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crooswalk-1536x889.png 1536w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crooswalk-860x498.png 860w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crooswalk-580x336.png 580w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crooswalk-1160x671.png 1160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>CROSSWALK <\/b>by Daria Volchok<\/p><p>The difference in the perception of time.

The first two meet in the Sachsenhausen concentration camp in the 1940s. The third is a pianist living in Barletta today. Yet the lives of the three men are linked by a red thread. In the Sachsenhausen concentration camp, Polish singer and composer Aleksander Kulisiewicz stores 770 songs created by his fellow deportees in his memory, repeating them continuously for years under his breath between his lips so as not to forget them. Martin Rosenberg is one of the men Aleksander met at Sachsenhausen. In the camp he organized a 30-piece Jewish choir. For Martin, the choir was an important vehicle for opposing the regime. The choir was illegal and its rehearsals strictly clandestine. In late 1942, Martin discovered that a transport would soon take him and his choir members to Auschwitz-Birkenau. Today the enormous musical heritage composed in the camps has come down to us thanks to the work of Barletta pianist Francesco Lotoro, who for more than 30 years has traveled the world in search of that music.          <\/p><p> <\/p><p><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-29264 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars-580x326.jpg 580w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars-860x484.jpg 860w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Socks-for-the-Stars.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>SOCKS FOR THE STAR <\/b>by Olga Titova<\/p><p>Dancing in space is dangerous, but a close-knit friendship can hold you steady.<\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p><p><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-29266 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School-580x326.jpg 580w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School-860x484.jpg 860w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/umbriafilmfestival.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/The-Christmas-Tree-School.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>THE \u0421HRISTMAS TREE SCHOOL <\/b>by Anastasia Makhlina<\/p><p>Cactus works as a janitor at the Christmas tree school.
