FREEDOM & INDEPENDENCE 15′ Bjørn Melhus Germany 2015
Against the backdrop of an unfathomable megalopolis, in a story that follows the associative qualities of a dream logic, the protagonists quote from concepts of neo-liberal elitism, and a mix of religious delusions and hallucinations of the apocalypse
TOURIST 22’ Myro Klochko Czech Republic 2017
Night. Spring’s endless rain. Coincidentally, Anna ends up at the police station. In front of her is a Czech policeman, for whom the case of inaccessible immigration is not particularly new. This is the film about meeting two foreigners. Is it easy to condemn the other person in advance? Question for both parties. The film as an attempt to discuss the limits of strangers.
BEAR 8’ Pascal Floerks GERMANY 2014
My grandpa’s past was always very present. It would break through in something he’d say or do, but he’d never talk about it. Only now, by revisiting his life and personality as I knew him, do I feel the weight of his inheritance.
BORDERLINE 15′ Dmitry Konoplov Israel 2015
Oded, a worn-out drug dealer who goes for a routine exchange of packages on the Israeli border, realizes that the person across the fence is a frustrated Palestinian soccer player, who doesn’t manage to get him his package. Then a border patrol arrives, scaring the soccer player away. When he returns, Oded has to motivate him in order to get his package.
