    boyfriend and I fled Kyiv to go to Irpin. We spent 10 days in a blockaded city and just managed to escape with the last evacuation convoy. Time passed, but the feeling that I died in Irpin has never left me since.
  • IN THE SHADOW OF THE CYPRESS (Iran / Hossein Molayemi & Shirin Sohani) – Living in a house by the sea with his daughter, a former captain who has post-traumatic stress disorder leads a tough and secluded life. WINNER BEST ANIMATED SHORT, Tribeca Film Festival
  • MAYBE ELEPHANTS (Norway-Canada /Torill Kove) – From Oscar-winning filmmaker Torill Kove, three rebellious teenage daughters, a restless mother, a father struggling with potatoes, and
    maybe some elephants, find themselves in Nairobi. What could possibly go wrong?
  • PERCEBES (France-Portugal / Laura Gonçalves & Alexandra Ramires) – With the sea and the urban Algarve as a background, we follow a complete cycle of the life of a special shellfish called PERCEBES, goose barnacle. From their formation, to the dish, in this journey, we cross different contexts that allow us to better understand this region and those who live there.
