The idyll of the German hinterland can be very deceptive. A loyal four-legged friend of a somewhat different kind helps to combat loneliness. The vastness of the ocean also helps to overcome some worries, which become all the greater when you look into the fridge.

CREVETTE

Strange things happen in the fridge. A shrimp turns into an embryo. A viscous liquid drips from a torn condom. Pickled beans multiply like cells. Does this have something to do with the protagonist's fears?

Switzerland 2023, Director: Elina Huber, Jill Vágner, Noémi Knobil, Sven Bachmann, Animated film, 5 min, French with English subtitles

FIRE DRILL

Driven by the desire to get his mother out of war-torn Ukraine, Arthur signs on to a container ship. The hard and dangerous work on board and his constant thoughts of home put him to the test.

Germany 2024, Director: Maximilian Villwock, Feature film, 20 min.

DANCES WITH CROCODILES (WHO DANCES WITH THE CROCODILE)

Michael has a somewhat unusual pet. He has lived with a spectacled caiman for over 40 years. In the midst of his loneliness in the East German province, the armored lizard is a loyal companion who sometimes crawls under the comforter at night.

Germany 2024, Director: Leonard Mann, Documentary, 22 min., German with English subtitles

PIECHT

Johanna has to confess to her mother that she has not been admitted to high school. On vacation together in the small town of Piecht, she hopes for the right moment. When she realizes that something is wrong with the villagers, the lack of admission to the Abitur is the least of her problems.

Germany 2023, Director: Luka Lara Steffen, Feature film, 30 min., German with English subtitles
