- DirectorOlivier SmoldersStarsFabrice RodriguezYves-Marina GnahouaPhilippe CorbisierIn a world overtaken by eternal darkness, the buttoned down entomologist abandons his phantoms to embrace the unknown. Oscar is a conservator at the Natural Science Museum, and spends most of his days surrounded by bugs. When Oscar isn't tending to the tiny specimens that line his home and workplace, he can frequently be found reflecting on his childhood traumas in the psychiatrist's office. One day, Oscar returns home from work to find an African woman from the museum lying in his bed.Kafka and Lynch have a son, and as an entomologist, of course, he dreams of the lightness of a butterfly but is confronted with the weight of a dark childhood filled with post-colonialist guilt... Slowly and meticulously we follow him into the rabbit hole where he tries to conciliate these dreams and nightmares, creating a surreal maze decorated with insects and African totems, and the contrast between black and white, like in the zebra's skin... Quoting the director. "A story invented by the night, the story of an infernal paradise, a funeral procession for a secret mourning."

- DirectorTheodoros AngelopoulosStarsHarvey KeitelMaia MorgensternErland JosephsonAn exiled filmmaker finally returns to his home country where former mysteries and afflictions of his early life come back to haunt him once more.A triad hides the shadows of a vision

and after its trace an odyssey, an elliptical journey
with the wind in his back and in his hand a mirror
reflecting shattered dreams, broken hopes
and I cry because I’m unable to love you...

running in despair to find the missing ingredient
the one that reveals the alchemy within
dancing with the fog among bodies on the floor
