Filmed on Fogo Island, Windward unfolds across the landscape –its distinctive geological formations, climate, and austere beauty – through delicate portrayals of youth.

Sharon Lockhart (b. 1964, Norwood, Massachusetts, US) creates films that engage a radical relation to time and the politics of looking. Through durational structures and rigorous framing, her work challenges conventional hierarchies between viewer and subject, artist and collaborator. Rooted in long-term relationships and site-specific processes, Lockhart’s films cultivate a space of mutual regard—where observation becomes an act of solidarity, and slowness a form of resistance. In Lockhart’s work, time is not simply measured—it is inhabited, shared, and redefined. Sharon Lockhart’s films received numerous international awards and were presented in numerous festivals. She was in competition at Cinéma du réel in 2023 with Eventide.
