The breathtaking underwater world of the Caribbean holds many secrets. For millions of years, sea turtles and sharks have successfully shared this habitat. Here, sunlight penetrates crystal clear water and casts its spell over fantastic coral formations. This new 3D adventure enables us to experience tiger sharks, one of the ocean’s most dangerous animals, as if they were in our own living room. Sharks evoke both fear and fascination. Fast and agile, they glide elegantly through the water, observe us with all their senses and raise a number of questions. The media describes them as »killers« or »bloodthirsty beasts«, but a shark whisperer shows us the true face of these beautiful, enigmatic and astounding predators sensitive kings of the seas with unimaginable skills and more endangered than we thought.

Lacan Palestine
Lacan Palestine
Lacan Palestine is a found footage essay about the troubled couple in Palestine. This country without a country has been party to imperial projections for centuries, amply on display here in waves of armed crusaders, legionnaires, Mongols on horseback and biplanes issuing state edicts from the end of a machine gun. There are maps by the galore, drawn and redrawn as occupied territories are bartered in foreign capitals. Contemporary art activists Velcrow Ripper, Elle Flanders, Tamira Sawatzky, Dani Leventhal and others have generously donated their keen lookings and these have been blended with newsreels, desert spectaculars, historical recreations and intimate encounters. Mike Cartmell appears as the ghost of psychoanalysis, offering ruminations on killing the father, John Coltrane and why enjoyment is difficult
