The documentary series “The Elders” are films about true ministers of the Church, living saints, who were given a prayerful and prophetic gift during their lifetime and who, by their deeds and closeness to God, earned the right to be called elders.
The heroes of the film are elders not because they have grown old in years and are white-haired. They are elders by the call of the soul, people with a pure heart, which became the abode of the Holy Spirit, bearers of his grace-filled gifts - healing, unceasing prayer from the heart, foresight, consolation.
The film tells about the most famous elders who lived in the 20th century. The heroes of the program come to life in vivid memories of those who knew them during their lifetime – parishioners, fellow churchmen, spiritual children. close

A feature-length documentary, Kvadrat explores the realities of techno DJing, using the example of Andrey PUSHKAREV, a Russian DJ recognized worldwide. Filmed as a hybrid between a road-movie and a music video, the film not only illustrates the festive atmosphere of techno night clubs, but also reveals the lesser known side of this profession: weeks of track selection, lengthy travel, difficult schedule. The film suggests to reconsider the stereotype of a popular musician, to find out whether the artist is happy, to ponder what's most important to him and his audience? Shot in Switzerland, France, Hungary, Romania and Russia, the film omits the typical documentary elements: no interviews, no explanatory voice-over, no facts, no figures. The visuals and the techno music replace them, leaving the detailed interpretation to the viewer. close

Leuchter published a controversial report confirming Zundel's position, which ultimately ruined his own career. Most of the footage is of Leuchter, working in and around execution facilities or chipping away at the walls of Auschwitz, but Morris also interviews various historians, associates, and neighbors. close
