Angels & Airwaves: Start the Machine
Featuring an interview with frontman Tom DeLonge discussing the high-profile breakup of his ex-band, blink-182, this documentary takes viewers into the studio as supergroup Angels & Airwaves records their debut album, "We Don't Need to Whisper."

Life of a Mutt
Through seven scenes, the film follows the life and destinies of stray dogs from the margins of our society, leading us to reconsider our attitude towards them. Through the seven “wandering” characters that we follow at different ages, from birth to old age, we witness their dignified struggle for survival. At the cemetery, in an abandoned factory, in an asylum, in a landfill, in places full of sorrow, our heroes search for love and togetherness. By combining documentary material, animation and acting interpretation of the thoughts of our heroes, we get to know lives between disappointment and hope, quite similar to ours.
