Anastasia Trofimova, a Russian-Canadian filmmaker, gains unprecedented access to follow a Russian Army battalion in Ukraine. Without any official clearance or permits, she earns the trust of foot soldiers and embeds herself over the span of a year with one battalion as it makes its way across Eastern Ukraine. What she discovers is far from the propaganda and labels pushed by the East or the West: an army in disarray, soldiers disillusioned and often struggling to understand what they are fighting for.

In Inuit land, away from the world, Iqaluit is nevertheless a cosmopolitan city, because many people come from the four corners of the world to work in this capital of the Canadian territory of Nunavut. A city where some 8,000 inhabitants live, a diverse microcosm in Arctic soil. Road to Nowhere invites you to travel the icy road that begins and ends in this place where many worlds coexist. A film which undertakes to cross doors literally and figuratively, to observe everyday events, the repetition of gestures and the habits of each person. Here, it is a question of capturing how life unfolds in the intimate and the ordinary, a sideways look that questions the presence of each person, the relationship to their roots and their future. A film that reveals itself as a canvas skilfully woven into a collective fresco on the edge of the world where the trivial, poetry and paradox intertwine.

Landshaft sketches the psychogeography of a geopolitically charged landscape and its inhabitants between extractivism, war and displacement. In the form of a journey in eastern Armenia, the film follows human and non-human actors as they make their way through the landscape, from Lake Sevan to the Sotk gold mine, occupied by Azerbaijan since the Karabakh War in 2020.

Fascinating and thrilling reconstruction of the rise and fall of the crypto currency company OneCoin. It all started in 2016 with OneCoin’s promise that it would become the world’s biggest crypto currency. Millions of people invested money, at least partly due to the charisma of the scheme’s leaders Sebastian Greenwood and Ruja Ignatova. They used notorious pyramid scheme tactics, holding gala style meetings to whip up enthusiasm among their members to draw their own networks into buying digital currency. The protagonist of this story is Bjørn Bjercke. Soon after OneCoin approached him for his expertise he discovered all sorts of things were amiss. Bjercke decided to share this knowledge publicly, despite the life-threatening danger that would entail. The film raises questions about human nature: Why do some people look away, while others go to the barricades? And how come our craving for more is so powerful that we let ourselves be fooled? Victims talk about their motivations, and influence experts confront us with our vulnerabilities: the fear of failure and a need for belonging.
