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

A perfect, fast and hilarious montage. Using images from Artis (Amsterdam Zoo), Bert Haanstra shows that a couple of similarities can be discovered between human and animal. Particularly the manner in which human and ape are confronted with each other, is significant. The images speak for themselves, human voices or commentary is absent. The ironic music of Pim Jacobs does add an extra dimension to the whole. With regards to human and animal Haanstra limits himself for the time being to this short film, recorded with a hidden camera. Later on, in several big films, he would return to this subject. close

On June 21, Victor Tsoi would have turned 50 years old. But in the memory and hearts of his fans, he will forever remain a 28-year-old idol. Victor Tsoi lived in an era of change, when one reality was replaced by another. He was one of the creators of the new world. His life is a set of paradoxes. A half-blooded boy who grew up in Leningrad, a rocker whose name rattled all over the Union, a musician who became a hero of the era - he sang, and millions sang along with him. When the news reported about a car accident near Riga on August 15, 1990, many were surprised to learn that Viktor Tsoi was only 28 years old! And he managed to live such a big life in such a small period of time. “Tsoi is a figure like an angel,” said Boris Grebenshchikov. Perhaps that’s why his fans say “Tsoi is alive” because angels don’t die. Viewers will see unique archival video materials, which capture rehearsals, concerts, tours and interviews of Viktor Tsoi to various TV channels. We will visit the places where the talent of the musician was born, talk with his colleagues, friends and like-minded people. close
