A 40-something crane operator Samir falls head over heels in love with swimming instructor Agathe. For lack of a better plan, he enlists as her student. The new comedy from the late French-Icelandic filmmaker, which premiered at Cannes' Directors' Fortnight sidebar last year, finds a man pretending he can't swim in order to get close to the lifeguard he loves. “Its utter and complete lack of cynicism makes the film, in its own miniature way, sort of extraordinary.” - The Hollywood Reporter.

On 12 September 1919, a troop of some three hundred soldiers under the leadership of the flamboyant war-loving Italian poet Gabriele D’Annunzio swooped into the Northern-Adriatic port town of Fiume, now Rijeka, wanting to annex the city to Italy. Over the course of the next 16 months, during what is regarded as one of the most bizarre militant sieges of all time his official photography team captured over 10,000 images. A century later, Igor Bezinović orchestrates a direct-action history lesson focused on the siege and its modern-day implications.
