Bodycheck - Mit Herz durch die Wand

Since his wife died ten years ago, Karl has been raising his daughter Nic alone. This has left its mark on the 13-year-old schoolgirl: Nic stands out from the girls her age with her short haircut and tomboyish style of dress. In her ice hockey team, which Karl coaches, she easily outplays her male teammates with the odd body check. But everything changes when editor-in-chief Sonja moves in next door and Karl unceremoniously turns the two apartments into a shared flat following an accident. Sonja observes the father-daughter relationship between Karl and Nic and interferes in their upbringing, especially when she realizes that Nic would also like to be a woman and that not everything revolves around ice hockey.

Raymond Loewy, le designer du rêve américain

Who was Raymond Loewy? A designer with the golden touch - such a genius that he could cross the US by air, rail, or road, stylishly seated in a plane, train, or automobile he'd designed himself! French designer Raymond Loewy was a star when the American Way of Life was at its flamboyant capitalist peak. He styled his own destiny as a Hollywood thriller. After all, he was a tycoon, a New York celebrity. Yet by the end of his life, he’d been forgotten. He took the mystery of his iconic Coca-Cola bottle to the grave with him. The bigger they are, the harder they fall: One day, megalomania got the better of Loewy, and he came to a tragic end. Suspense, drama, twists of fate: Loewy invented the medium as the message.

Someone Else's Home

We entered "someone else's home" with fear of being a disturbance. We didn't want to peer into a wounded territory with the eyes of the merely curious. The inhabitants of Amatrice, the few that are left, opened the door to us, greeted us without tears, offered us their hospitality and affection. One year after from earthquake, the pain is receding and people are thinking about rebuilding. But the rubble has not been cleared. It takes time, they say. And the future, perhaps, is still far away.

Atelier de conversation

Once a week in Paris a group of individuals from all corners of the world meet in a small room at Centre Pompidou to participate in free French lessons. Asylum seekers, businessmen, doctors, lawyers, and students sit side-by-side and immerse themselves in polite, if stilted, conversation. However, tensions and misunderstandings occur as the nuances which each participant attempts to express become lost as they struggle to access the language. But despite their differences - and linguistic limitations - the disparate group of strangers in a foreign land find, in the small gestures and subtle looks between the words, a way towards understanding.

For Tamara Lunger, freedom means pushing herself beyond her limits, daring the impossible, and deeply knowing her true self.

However, failure is not unfamiliar to her, a subject that could have changed her life. Markus Frings and Nora Ganthaler recount the ups and downs of this extraordinary woman's life, accompanying her and her mentor Simone Moro on winter expeditions to Nanga Parbat and the 8,596-meter peak of Kangchenjunga.
