“Scrapbook” (aka “The Piano Player”) is the story of a high school sophomore desperately searching for a meaningful connection with another human being; the efforts of his popular older brother to help him out only end up making things worse, leading to a cold war between the brothers that spirals out of control when our hero falls in with the wrong crowd. A coming of age tale populated with memorable characters that takes many unpredictable twists and turns, “Scrapbook” celebrates youth in its complex blend of joy and agony — and mourns the tragic mistakes that reverberate into adulthood.

Gunpowder
At the end of September 1941, Soviet artillery troops in besieged Leningrad realize that pretty soon they will fire their last shot, and after that the defense of the city will be doomed. The film is based on a true event: a small group of fearless soldiers transported a large supply of gunpowder through enemy lines to Leningrad.

Hello
Hello explores changes in two people’s working lives: a Mexican trash picker who separates and collects recyclable materials from landfills to sell by the kilo, and a German freelance computer-animation designer working for the advertising industry in Berlin. The double interview is controlled and manipulated by a computer-generated severed hand which Maria describes as an object once discovered in the trash while working in the violent northern town of Mexicali. This CGI hand was in turn produced by Max, who was born with no arms, and sought refuge in computer-imaging as a means to operate and manipulate a digital reality.

Re-Existences
“Re-Existence” is a documentary about migration stories of individuals from the Brazilian queer community.

Q
An intimate portrayal of a quest for love and acceptance at any cost, Q depicts the influence of a secretive matriarchal religious order on filmmaker Jude Chehab’s family and the unspoken ties and consequences of loyalty that have bonded her mother, grandmother, and herself to the mysterious organization. A love story of a different kind, Q is a multigenerational tale of the eternal search for meaning.
