The dance performance “Kontakthof” bears the unmistakable signature of Pina Bausch: it deals with forms of human contact, encounters between the sexes, and the search for love and tenderness, with all its attendant anxieties, yearnings and doubts. It is a dance about feelings, which always pose a big challenge – particularly for young people. Teenagers from more than eleven schools in Wuppertal went on an emotional journey that lasted almost a year. Every Saturday, forty students aged between fourteen and eighteen years of age took part in rehearsals that were led by Bausch-dancers Jo-Ann Endicott and Bénédicte Billiet and intensely supervised by Pina Bausch herself. close

The Putin System is a documentary chronicling Putin’s rise to power in Russia along with the implications for ordinary Russian people. Russia is once again flexing its muscles. This time its weapons are not the Red Army or its nuclear arsenal, but the huge energy resources lying under the Siberian tundra. Vladimir Putin is the man responsible for the reemergence of Russia as a global power, but how much is really known about him and his ascendance? This film explores his journey to the highest echelons of the Kremlin and contextualizes his rise against a newly belligerent Russia nostalgic for the past glories of the Soviet empire. This investigative documentary covers 30 years in the history of Russia through the personal history of Vladimir Putin: a man who has single-mindedly played all the rules of the game to reach the throne of power. close

The documentary Homo Sapiens – The Reasonable Man tells the story of the dawn of human civilization. The history of mankind as a species is 250,000 years old. The persistent struggle for existence for many generations has influenced the development of a person whose brain is designed to accumulate information and use it to their advantage. It is this circumstance, which makes it possible to call man a rational and thinking creature, that distinguishes him from the whole animal world. Having domesticated other animals, he finally resolved the question of domination of the planet in his favor. close

Although at first sight this might look like a simple ‘making of DANCER IN THE DARK’, the later developments in the film reveal the whole drama of Lars von Trier’s inner life during the shooting process. All his doubts and insecurities in collaborating with the crew and actors - especially actresses - are exposed. The biggest drama started when Björk walked off the set. Nobody knew whether she would be back or not. Admitting that he feels threatened by women, who can ‘make him feel embarrassed’, the director gives this documentary the nature of a personal diary. When he discusses the importance, purpose and beauty of the use of a hundred cameras in a certain sequence or the meaning of the Dogma 95 rules, the audience is witnessing the process of the artist’s search. Is the pain that the director went through during the shooting really visible in the final result, as Lars von Trier claims in this film? (from: http://www.idfa.nl/) close

Forests stretch over a third of the Earth’s surface, they are home to more than half of terrestrial species of living organisms, live hundreds of millions of people. 7 billion people use at least something produced by forests every day. Forests are the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, the medicines we sometimes cannot survive without. At the same time, forests are one of the most poorly protected areas on our planet. They are in clear danger.
2011 has become the International Year of Forests and an extra reason to learn or remember how to treat the forests of our planet, protect, protect and use wisely. About Forests and People (Des Forêts et des Hommes) close

As he did with his critically-acclaimed "Blockade," a documentary re-creation of the WWII siege of Leningrad, which received its NY theatrical premiere in March 2007, filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa has once again scoured the Russian film archives for "Revue," selecting excerpts from newsreels, propaganda films, TV shows and feature films that present an evocative portrait of Soviet life during the 1950s and 1960s. With scenes taken from the length and breadth of the “Soviet Motherland,” "Revue" illustrates industry and agriculture, political life, popular culture, and technology. The film’s fascinating flow of disparate scenes representing typical Soviet life of the period is, seen from today’s perspective, alternately poignant, funny, and tragic close

The film The Other Chelsea: A Story from Donetsk is a Western journalist’s view of how and against the background of what social contradictions football is developing in modern Ukraine.
The authors of the film “Another Chelsea: A Story from Donetsk” go to Donetsk, a coal-mining region of Ukraine. Here most people work for a very small wage, going down to poorly equipped mines, while a small group of people make very big money.
No matter what political leanings you have, if you’re from Donetsk, you’re sure to be a fan of the football that Shakhtar Donetsk represents here. Billionaire Rinat Akhmetov is investing a lot of money in the club, which occupies a prominent place in European football. However, the sporting success, which comes largely thanks to funding from the oligarch, only highlights the real problems in the social and political life of the region. close
