I Am a Rock

Hiiumaa Island, Estonia. About 455 million years ago, a meteorite fell here, forming a crater 4 kilometers in diameter. This event is now represented by a landmark, a 1:100 scale model field of the Kärdla meteorite crater. In the middle of the field, there is a rock — or perhaps two rocks? One is an object of the speechless wilderness: a rock is a rock is a rock. The other is a signified, an agent of the symbolic domain that participates in language and claims to be a meteorite.

World’s Dot

DJ Tyomati's stepfather attends a shooting range, anticipating a swift victory for Russia in the "special military operation," but he is not eager to participate in it yet. The young man has different intentions – evading mobilization, he boards a plane for the first time in his life and ends up in Armenia, where everything seems new and strange. Despite emigration evolving into a survival journey for him, Tyomati remains resilient, while the video calls with his stepfather can turn into farewell conversations if he chooses to volunteer for the war.

Roze Bubbel

Two mothers lovingly raised Afra. Growing up felt like a safe pink bubble to her. But this bubble burst when she discovered the obstacles her parents had to overcome to have a child. For example, one mother did not exist legally for 12 years, and 30 years later this is still the reality for multi-parent families. When Afra heard this, she became determined to tell the story of these families. This documentary shows what happens to you when you fall outside the 'standard' picture of a family. In the film we follow Afra, and her two mothers, two multi-parent families, the experts Henny Bos (professor of Sexual and Gender Diversity in Youth), Sara Coster (board member Meer dan Gewenst and child wish coach) and former D66 member of parliament Lisa van Ginneken.

En La Caliente: Tales of A Reggaeton Warrior

A film about contemporary Cuban youth through the music and dance of Reggaeton.

In the midst of a unique sociopolitical situation during a key moment in Cuban history, we discover a cultural and commercial phenomenon without equal, hand in hand with an irreverent youth that's living its own revolution.
