Mr. Nobody Against Putin
A humble teacher from a small industrial town films everyday life at his school – his amateur footage gradually reveals the reality of life in Russia during the ongoing war against Ukraine. The film Mr. Nobody Against Putin is now feared even by the regime itself, banned by court, and closely monitored to prevent anyone in Russia from accessing it.

Voice of the Forest
In the Voice of the Forest, we hear everything we didn’t want to hear. The forest is cultivated with a saw. At least that’s what they still teach in forestry schools. But what does a healthy forest really need?
Better Go Mad in the Wild
The film Better to Go Mad in the Wild follows the Klišík twins, eternal children living in the Šumava wilderness with their pets. Humor, daily routines, and the brothers’ contrasting souls create a magical portrait of life outside civilization.
Death of Death
The essayistic documentary by director Dāvis Sīmanis explores not only the contemporary “market for eternal life” but also humanity’s deep-seated desire to transcend mortality. The film raises the question of whether the pursuit of immortality represents a real step toward human liberation or simply another way to cope with the inevitability of death.

My Father's Daughter
Twenty-seven years ago, a young woman disappeared in Slovakia.

Fiume o Morte!

Testimonies from both refugees and locals reveal the reality of a system in which, despite everything, people preserve their dignity and hope.
Kapitalism: Our Improved Formula
Alexandru Solomon “invites” dictator Ceaușescu back to Romania 20 years after his execution. The dictator symbolically haunts contemporary capitalism. The film portrays powerful elites and creates a portrait of a new ruling class in “Capitalism with a capital K.”Even 16 years after film premiere, it remains surprisingly relevant.
Coexistence, My Ass!
Stand-up comedian Noam Shuster Eliassi challenges myths of coexistence in Israel through her sharp performance.
