“Trojan Boats”
Ahmad A. Albaki (Director & Screenplay)
Feature film, 2025, 17 min.
In Berlin’s Neukölln district, a demonstration against the controversial “Trojan Law” descends into chaos. Violent clashes erupt between demonstrators and groups of white supremacists.

“S’Tuntschi vo Juf”
Jon Grandpierre (Director and Screenplay), Yakob El Deeb (Cinematography & Screenplay)
Feature film, 2026, 30 min.
There is a house in the mountains of Graubünden. The mother is dead; the daughter arrives, followed by the granddaughter. They want to clear out the house—but inside, they sense the presence of the dead woman’s secret companions. Alongside a taciturn hunter and an intrusive pedicurist, a very different figure seems to have found a place in the life of the woman who tells us her story from heaven: the “Tuntschi vo Juf,” the doll brought to life from the mountain legend of the “Sennentuntschi.”

“The Monument Moves”
Marja Suna Vormann (Director & Screenplay)
Documentary, 2026, 19 min.
“What Will Happen to the Nazis: Wherever They Go, We Will Go After Them”: A recollection of the families’ voices in the courtroom leads the filmmaker to various sites commemorating the 30,000 disappeared victims of Argentina’s last military dictatorship. Footsteps move between the Parque de la Memoria, a courtroom, the Plaza de Mayo, and a kitchen in Buenos Aires. With Leila and the voices of the family members, the monument begins to move.      

“El mismo sol, otra luz”
Ivonne Sheen Mogollón (Director & Screenplay)
Experimental film, 2025, 26 min.
A multi-layered reflection unfolds when a filmmaker asks herself: How did the art of film and photography find their way to the Moon Island in Lake Titicaca? After moving to Germany, she encounters the images she took there, and the connection between mining and image-making evokes associations that transcend a linear perception of time.
