Description:Forget all you have heard about how “Renewable Energy” is our salvation. It is all a myth that is very lucrative for some. Feel-good stuff like electric cars, etc. Such vehicles are actually powered by coal, natural gas… or dead salmon in the Northwest.
Description:An assured, emotionally rich film about the lies a family tells to keep their patriarch happy; and the unattended costs of their falsehood.

Description:The film is supposed to be the first one dedicated to the music as an instrument for death exploration. The trigger for the plot was a discussion between Yevgeny Voronovskiy, composer, and Dmitriy Vasiliev, music enthusiast and journalist. They talked about 90's and 00's musicians who had worked with a theme of death. There is a need to highlight that they really worked. Many of them are dead now (suicide, drugs etc.). Sound artists have been swallowed by dangerous field of their studies. During the film one of the characters dies under unclear circumstances. As The real death emerges from the conversation about it, the film starts to transform, growing in characters, stories and contexts.

Description:Artist and filmmaker Eric Baudelaire spent four years interacting with the pupils of a film class, at a secondary school in the Parisian suburb of Saint-Denis. Keeping himself on the sidelines, he gives way to the children to express their thoughts and dreams. Their remarks are intuitive, inquisitive, yet passionate and surprisingly mature, concerning rocky and complicated issues, ranging from racism, immigration, and identity, all the way to the possibilities of film as a medium. As time flows almost unnoticed, it is evident that these children have not only become the co-directors of this film but also the heroes of their own lives.
