El títere y su doble / The Puppet and Its Double Workshop

2025 El títere y su doble / The Puppet and Its Double Workshop — Two-day intensive workshop taught by Niles Atallah at the Instituto Departamental de Bellas Artes, Cali, Colombia, in 2025, in collaboration with the Festival Internacional de Cine de Cali (FICCALI) and CINETORO Experimental Film Festival, with FAVA Bellas Artes Cali and the professional puppet company Titirindeba. Working with discarded puppets from Titirindeba, participants explored puppetry, chronophotography, pixilation, live action and stop-motion. The collective short El títere y su doble was created spontaneously during the workshop, combining puppets and film, and was shown immediately afterward in the FICCALI / CINETORO festival context.

A video record of the workshop was published by Corporación 1 1/2 / CINETORO on Vimeo.

Created spontaneously during the two-day intensive workshop, this film was made together by Niles Atallah and the students. Atallah guided the workshop process and actively collaborated with the participants in making the film. It is a work of collective authorship, reflecting the workshop’s working process and collective spirit.
