Three shores is the portrait of an imaginary river. By crossing it, from east to west, or by making a detour to the south, from red to green, from the undergrowth to the city, to its industrial zone: the film attempts to map the functioning and organization of our society through the time of flowing water.Read More »

At first, all is despair-But these Ukrainians reveal their resilience.Russians bombarded Bucha, Borodyanka, Irpin and other cities in the region following their invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022. By the time they retreated a month later, the damage was huge: buildings had been destroyed and there were corpses lying in the streets.

Synopsis He is already flirting with death, but still looking for the love of life – the queer performer Lulla La Polaca has turned 80 and still wants to dance, play and love. But the youthful soul is resisted by a weakening, aging body. What is it like to want what you can’t keep up with? Missing love, having so little time to fulfill it? A stranger in a tribe of retirees and thriving among the young, but always leaving him behind; Lulla doesn’t belong anywhere.
