•Documentary
A documentary/adventure film unlike any other. An exclusive, inside look into a closed fraternity of elite watermen. A breathtakingly honest, wild ride from start to finish. Black Coral tells the harrowing, amazing and occasionally amusing stories of the Black Coral divers of Maui. In their own words, the divers open up about friendships, rivalries, and the sobering realities of deep diving - the beauty, the addiction and the danger of harvesting the Hawaiian State gemstone. Interviews include living and recently deceased dive legends Jack Ackerman, Ricky Grigg, Robin Lee, and more.

Re/cycle
With input from actor and writer Jan Hlobil, director and cinematographer Rene Smaal presents a film in the true surrealist tradition, in the sense that only 'found' elements were used, and that it defies interpretation based on ordinary cause-and-effect time sequence.
The Song of the Tree
Esen, a young man who has been expelled from his village, escapes with the daughter of one of the most powerful men in the village. Whilst being pursued, he is forced to fight for her hand in a battle that results in the destruction of a sacred totem tree. This puts the whole village in jeopardy, and it is up to Esen to redeem himself and save them all.
Dune
Sounds as witnesses. They blurr into memories, half-dreams, it is undecided if they are real or not. A fluctuation between imagination and reality.
Maintenance
Two people are waiting together for each other. Their flat waits with them and for them. Together they are living side by side. Someone is coming, someone is leaving, the flat stays where it is.
