One of the most versatile and prolific young filmmakers to emerge on the New York scene, Ricardo grew up in Havana, Cuba, near a cinema which soon became his backyard. He graduated from the presitigious Instituto Superior de Arte (ISA) and obtained a Masters in Fine Arts (MFA) from NYU's Film pro gram. He came to Germany in 2003 to the Berlinale's first Talent Campus and completed two of his best known documentary films, "Short Radiography of H ip Hop in Cuba" (2004) and the "Maji-Maji Readings" (2006), shot in Berlin. These two shorts on different Black Diasporic Experiences and Creativities will be screened and discussed with the filmmaker.
Amongst Ricardo B
acallao's most recent work, combining fiction and documentary genres, is "T
he Butterfly's Kiss" (2012) shot in Singapore, "Mondongo Cubano" (2014), a
fictional Short set in the 1990's during Cuba's most devastating economic c
risis since the Revolution and his latest feature
film, a political th
riller, titled "The Uncle's Request" (2015). Back in Berlin, Bacallao is wo
rking on two documentary projects simultaneously, "Cubans on the Edge of th
e Berlin Wall" and "A State of Change" a portrait of the refugee movement i
n Berlin.
"Diaspora for me is a big journey, physical, spiritual, cul tural, a journey that never stops" - Ricardo Bacallao.
