Manufacturing Death: Birth of the Atom Bomb

The birth of the atomic bomb changed the world forever. In the years before the Manhattan project, a weapon of such power was not even remotely imaginable to most people on earth. And yet, with war comes new inventions. New ways of destroying the enemy. New machines to wipe out human life. The advent of nuclear weapons not only brought an end to the largest conflict in history, but also ushered in an atomic age and a defining era of "big science". However, with the world now gripped by nuclear weapons, we exist constantly on the edge of mankind's total destruction.

Brian Eno and Roger Eno have been recording together since 1983. This unique musical event not only sees the two brothers performing live together for the first time but is one of very rare occasions that Brian has ever performed live in front of an audience.

Barfuß durch Australien

Svenja and her 16-year-old daughter Kira have traveled the world a lot. Svenja is a hotel manager and is currently bringing an aging hotel in Australia back into shape. But her biggest challenge is her daughter, who has switched to complete refusal and doesn't let Svenja tell her anything anymore. Kira doesn't avoid confrontations at school either, which in turn leads to conflicts with Svenja. After another argument, Kira decides to go to Jack. Jack is Aboriginal and Kira's only friend. Together, the two young people go in search of their “special place”, their own particular locality. Svenja is beside herself with worry when she notices Kira's disappearance and gives chase with Jack's father Kalti, a deeply relaxed hotel boat guide whom Svenja had released two days earlier. An adventurous journey begins in the barren deserted Outback - for Svenja and Kira a strange world, fascinating, but also life-threatening!

Rematriation

From the front lines of the fight to preserve BC's old growth forests, Rematriation is both an urgent wake-up call and an inspiring tribute to land defenders. Aggressive logging destroys more than 10,000 hectares of our province each year. Less than 3% of our virgin forests remains. At Fairy Creek, a coalition of First Nations and environmental activists refuse to stand down. Alex Liotti's passionate, respectful film gives these protesters a platform and amplifies their call to action.

Kumo to Saru no Kazoku

Early Edo period. A family lived in the woods within the neutral zone between the Tsubaki and Hino domains. The head of the household, Saru, was a former ninja. With the era now peaceful and his skills no longer needed, he stayed home as a househusband, protecting his family. He had always disliked bloody work and, during his active years, had primarily worked as a mediator in conflicts. His wife, Kumo, was a sought-after ninja hired by other domains. Her earnings, secured through intermediaries, were the family's lifeline. Their four children were: their youngest biological son, Usagi; Kumo's eldest daughter from a previous marriage, Chō; and the orphaned eldest son, Ryū, and second daughter, Gō.

Riparia

With RIPARIA, Emilija Škarnulytė proposes a visual crossing of the Rhône via Lake Geneva. Using scientific techniques of photogrammetry and underwater sensors, she follows the course of the water, beyond the waves, scraping the benthic sea floor, the domain of the riparian and the lacustrine, to read the effects of human intervention. Considering time in its thickness, she explores hydrology and its mythologies, questions in a poetic way what happens in our landscapes and suggests what might happen.
