ARMAT

Élodie wants to know more about the history of her Armenian family, so she interviews her father, uncle, and great-aunt. In doing so, she reveals a harsh story about violence and the inability to love, passed down from generation to generation.

DEN GROSSVATER, DEN ES NICHT GIBT

Who is Kamran Taan? Sara knows hardly anything about her grandfather. She travels to La Spezia, where he is said to have lived. Unpredictable events and stories gradually merge to form a picture.

ER SO SIE SO

A man and a woman have a brief love encounter and part again. They recall the weekend, reflecting on what happened and what could have happened if they had been more open, less hesitant, less scarred by the wounds of previous relationships.

HAPPY HOMES

A building with uninhabited, furnished apartments. Three people enliven them. Intimate, fleeting, accomplished.

OURS

An amateur filmmaker has been filming bears for years and is looking for someone to edit a film from his footage. A student comes forward. She discovers that not only bears can be seen on the recordings. An argument ensues about the power of the voyeuristic gaze.

TO WHOM THE BIRDS FLY

While a family in Switzerland prepares to return to their homeland of Bosnia, their relatives on the other side wait patiently for their arrival.
