They Shoot Kolbars, Don't They?

The lead protagonists in this film are Kurdistan and the kolbars of Kurdistan. In one of Iran’s most remote, deprived and little-understood regions, every day hundreds of people – from 12-year-old boys to men in their 70s – strap up to 50 kilos’ worth of goods to their backs and set out on foot, singing, on the days-long and dangerous journey across the border to Iraq. Kolbars are border couriers who physically shuttle large amounts of items for sale, from tissues to cigarettes to white goods, between Iran and Iraq. Their very existence is testament to the decades-long wanton neglect of Kurdistan by the Islamic Republic of Iran, which regards the minority communities in this mountainous border province as a security threat and does all it can to stifle local economic growth.

Bang on Time

The two wingsuiters Marco Waltenspiel and Marco Fürst from the Redbull Skydive Team have realized a unique idea to combine the fascination of skydiving with freeskiing. While the freeskiers perform their tricks, they are accompanied by the Red Bull Skydive Team. Sounds crazy - it is. Last spring, the Red Bull Skydive Team and the Atomic Freeski Team made their way to Obergurgl to work together with the two wingsuit pilots. After days of struggling with weather conditions and timing issues, everything came together in the end to successfully call the project BANG ON TIME. Atomic athletes Nico Porteous, Fabian Boesch, Lukas Müllauer, Ralph Welponer, Ben Barclay, Miguel Porteous and Ian Rocca took part in the shoot as protagonists on skis. The full documentary behind this sensation can be found on Red Bull TV, which takes a look behind the scenes.

A Dolphin Who Lives His Life And Eats Cakes

This is a documentary work shot during a trip to art residences from different regions of Ukraine, but at some point this trip became an unconscious pursuit of the sea. You're going to see a film that doesn't know what it's about. What this world is about and what all these people are about. You will see a long road that lasted a month and a half. Which was difficult and sometimes unbearable. A million sounds and phenomena that we come across from time to time, but maybe we don't see the connection between them. A film that finds itself. A story that tries to be separate, but life puts its points. A depiction of a reality that is always around us, but do we know it?

In May 1813, as Napoleon launches a desperate bid to save his empire following the disastrous defeat in Russia, the situation in Spain is particularly precarious. French forces have been weakened to make up for the enormous losses in Russia. But Wellington's Anglo-Portuguese army, as well as the Spanish guerrillas, are stronger than ever. Wellington's advance into Spain will liberate Madrid a second time, and conclude with the final showdown of the Peninsular War - the Battle of Vitoria.

Moved Landscapes

Two geographic places, Quebec (Canada) and New Caledonia (France, Pacific), are put in relation to each other with the help of an audiovisual installation which modifies the congruence and the synchronicity of sounds and images. This work explores the depth of two contrasting territories which have both undergone a colonial history. Working out the contrasts and resonances of these two contexts, this work investigates the identity and memory of places but also the strange sensation of reality given by a hybrid and fictional landscape which combines elements that do not belong together.
