Les Délivrés
A guide to spreading enthusiasm
This documentary follows a group of film students into a pursuit/quest/search as uncertain as it is essential: to discover what kind of films are worth making today. They dig into lost metaphors that seem to have been missing and explore the ways of storytelling in the face of the current climate. Rather than seeking definitive answers, they encounter a collective process towards an open dialogue, and a vital force: enthusiasm. It is that moving force that remains portrayed as an attempt of passing it on to those who need a reminder of why, making films is still worth it.

Over the course of three seasons, the story of Luna, Matteo, Simón, Ámbar, and the rest of the Jam & Roller crew became a unique phenomenon thanks to its blend of music, romance, drama, and roller skating.

We will get an inside look at the backstage experience and revisit the story of the series, from the first rehearsals, filming sessions, and tours to this incredible farewell.
Endlich fliegen
The dreams of young Andrea. The camera accompanies the seven-year-old girl in 1976 when she was at school dressed up and singing as a flying butterfly. Later, at the age of 17, she wanted to be "free" from her parents and tried to realize her dream as a dancer at a ballet school in Leipzig, but quickly failed and gave up. From then on, she works as a waitress in a restaurant because she is around people and feels comfortable there. She meets new people outside of her parental home, learns to discuss and represent other opinions. Her boyfriend accompanies her on her new path, but she can rarely see him as he works in another big city, which in turn leads to problems. The life of Andrea, now 19 years old, is portrayed here with excerpts from the film "Butterflies" and shows us what happened to Andrea's dreams of "flying and being free".

Wolves Return
Wolves divide and fascinate us. 150 years after they were driven to extinction in Central Europe, they are returning slowly but inexorably. Are they dangerous to humans? Is it possible to coexist? Using Switzerland as a point of departure, where wolves have returned in the very recent past, this documentary sheds light on the wolf situation in Austria, eastern Germany, Poland, Bulgaria, and even Minnesota, where freely roaming packs of wolves are more common sight.
Liquid Love
A critique of liquid love through sarcasm and crude humor. With the desire that the viewer empathize with the protagonists and reflect on the ephemerality of sexual-affective relationships in modern society. At the end of the short film, the transformation of people into mere consumer goods will be clear, which, once they have been used, are discarded
SubBerlin - Underground United
The original Tresor was in many ways the quintessential Berlin club: located in an unrenovated vault beneath a bombed out department store, it opened its doors amidst the general confusion and ecstasy that swept across the city when the wall fell. Its low ceilings, industrial decor and generally unhinged atmosphere created an unprecedented platform not only for techno in Berlin, but also for the scene taking shape across the Atlantic in Detroit.
Bravehearts
A documentary about youth politicians changes radically on July 22nd 2011, when a right-wing extremist murders 69 people at a summer camp run by the Workers Youth Party.
