The makers of the documentary film concentrated on a community of homeless children living hand to mouth in the Moscow train station Leningradsky. Eight-year-old Sasha, eleven-year-old Kristina, thirteen-year-old Misha and ten-year-old Andrej all dream of living in a communal home.

"When it is worst, we try to make money for food by prostitution," admits ... close

How do you save a language that has not been spoken for a whole generation?

Alexey Ivanov is an enthusiast who understood this and approached Yandex with the idea of making an online translator from the Sakha language. The task that engineers solved many times with other languages turned out to be more difficult and interesting. In addition to technology, this project needed a protagonist. 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
