Only Godard
How do you craft the portrait of Jean-Luc Godard, or better yet a portrait of his methodology, his universe, his way of constructing or deconstructing cinema, that is equal to his own cinematic audacity and genius? How could it be anything other than by taking risks, and trying out equally radical methods, never straying from to his example. The two filmmakers immerse us into the storage warehouse where, in 2010, all the archives kept by Godard in Switzerland were transferred, and they create a doppelganger (or a duplicate) of the director, who takes up the role of our guide into his world. Excerpts from his writings, his images, his perspective in cinema give us a glimpse into his mythology, his techniques, his singular gaze, and therefore also in his worldview.

4:30
Ilya, a blind pensioner, plans to run a marathon in the average time for sighted athletes — four and a half hours. Dima's young coach helps him approach the matter correctly: maintain the pace, calculate the load, and hold out until the finish line. In the 15 minutes that the film lasts, we will see the entire range of emotions between them, from irritation to sincere support, and also learn a lot about Ilya: what he strives for when he stopped seeing what he considers important in life and what is nonsense. The director shoots the characters on grainy black-and-white film, interspersing jogging and conversations with surreal, fantasy portrait shots, separates the dialogue from the picture and stitches the film with a pulsating soundtrack, reassembles the material as a collage, creating an unusual and surprisingly integral aesthetic.
A Tree Grows in My Dreams Every Night
An evocative journey to a small Slovenian village turns into an enchanting immersion into the collective memory and the backbone of a certain place through stories from the present and the past that converge, intermingle, coexist outside of time, in the plane of the unseen, in the sphere of sentiments. With photographs, taken by photographer Stojan Kerbler decades ago, of the village and its residents serving as a guide, the film crafts the portrait of a place through narrations, images, poetry and pure cinematic beauty. It may not be easy to describe how "a tree grows in dreams" in just a handful of words, but you can be sure that seeing it is nothing less than an experience beyond a mere viewing, something you experience like a dream or a caress, like a song that glides from your ears straight to your heart.

Coney Island - As Primeiras Vezes
Three times she travelled until the last stop on the F line. Each as if it was the first. There she
found a meatless Disneyland, only skin, bone and memories. She thought of Dorothy and her
dog. On her skin she felt the taste of the sea and she discovered new flavours as she dived into
the freezing cold water. Now she fears everything will vanish like a wave that goes and never
returns. Unlike her, I never travelled to the end of the F line. But I can see, hear and feel it. Can
you?

Although the starting point is the moment of introduction of martial law, thanks to selected recordings we go back in time by 16 months and 12 days in order to better understand the mood at that time and the complexity of the processes that led to the decision of December 13, 1981.
Douro Line - Heritage on Rails
A journey in real time on the Douro Line, the rail link with the greatest tourist potential in Portugal and which wants to be recognized as a World Heritage Site. Running mostly along the course of the river itself, this documentary puts the viewer in the driver's seat, showing the almost pristine landscapes of the upper Douro, through a view that until today has been exclusive to the railwaymen who travel the 171.5 kilometers of the route between São Bento station (Porto) and Pocinho (Vila Nova de Foz Côa). Along the way, we cross three World Heritage Sites: the Historic Centre of Porto, the Alto Douro Wine Region and the Côa Valley Rupestrian Art Sites.

That didn’t stop her from going on tour and director John Archer interweaves fly-on-the-wall footage with interviews from people such as Jimmy Carr, Nicola Sturgeon, and Janey's daughter, Ashley, that reveal details of a difficult Glasgow childhood.
