In an age of overlapping ecological, political, and social crises, the question of care and responsibility takes on enormous significance. Who cares for whom, and under what conditions? How can we think of care beyond normative role models, structural isolation, and exploitation?

The group screening brings together three video works that deal with practices of care. Starting from the private sphere, the works develop perspectives on care beyond the neoliberal burden of personal responsibility and examine how solidarity can be conceived and lived.

A team rehearsing is interrupted by six characters in search of an author willing to write their story, which has gone from drama to drama.

Filmed at the Théâtre du Vieux-Colombier in Paris's 6th arrondissement.

Utopia is a deeply societal city. Within it live the poor and the wealthy, men who transcend their condition, who rise above it or vanish entirely. The radical, the humanist, the advocate of the State as much as the anarchist — all are creations of this city, reflections of its very essence. The Trinity are crystals discovered at the heart of Utopia, once exploited until their depletion. Endowed with a power that remains enigmatic, they constitute an incredible source of energy, but one that functions only within the dome of Utopia. Ground into powder, this crystal induces both miraculous visions and intense hallucinations, making it a coveted and almost mythical substance. A symbol of a radiant future, it was meant to embody the key to universal peace… but it proved to be quite the opposite.

In 2025, anti-Semitism is more widespread in Germany than at any time since the end of the Holocaust. Since October 7, 2023, the attack on Israel by Palestinian terrorists led by Hamas, the number of anti-Semitic crimes in Germany has doubled, and violence is increasing. This documentary follows Jews and asks how they are dealing with the rise of anti-Semitism. Three survivors of Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp speak out, expressing their horror at the resurgence of anti-Semitism 80 years later.
