Mythopolis
Legendary characters from the Greek mythology live their lives and solve their problems in today´s world.

Amelia
Inspired by the story of American aviator Amelia Earhart, the film is a poetic reflection on flight. Flying not only as a mechanical event where a mass of metal floats in the air, but also in a more profound sense, as an abandonment of earth, a symbol of reality, adults and rules. It is a tale about freedom.

I'll Come Back in a Few Days
"My Grandpa just passed away. The last time I saw him, it was with you."

Oh Whale
The cat loves fish, she lives for the fish, all she wants is fish. Until the day she meets the whale, which sits on the beach. And suddenly the cat lives her life as a fish.

An Adventurous Afternoon
Actually Giant Fox and William Honda just wanted to have a nice coffee together, but the afternoon turns out more adventurous than expected.

Bernard
Bernard lives in peace until a foreign entity decides to invite itself in his life. This cohabitation would be fraught with many surprises. Indeed his new companion is none other than his heart…

The Bigger Picture
Using seven-foot-tall characters in life-size sets, The Bigger Picture tells the stark and darkly humorous tale of caring for an elderly parent. Innovative animated short.

Bear
The film tells a story of a bear and a series of events that took place in the Polish countryside. The main character tries to explain to the forest ranger how he met this dangerous animal. But instead he describes more and less important events that happened on the very same day as he was going back home from a wedding.

Breakdown
An anthropomorphic figure with the head of an elephant stands in front of a mirror in a bathroom. As we sink deeper and deeper into layers of the strange organism that resembles a nervous system and a plant at the same time, the elephant-head character seems to react in a violent and unpredictable way, creating a kind of a choreography which ends in the vanishing of the character himself.

Unwanted Desires
Unwanted Desires is a personal notebook, compilations of scenes which present unacceptable behaviour. Such behaviour is sometimes just strange, disgusting, sometimes dangerous – but there still is a need to 'do it', because it's against social expectations.

The Age of Rust
An extraordinary mockumentary discovering the incredible life cycle of Peteramosaurus Cavator in the wonderful landscape of the Alps.

Fol'amor
A high-born lady and a young knight are frolicking in the forest when they come across Excalibur, which leads them to a silly game of seduction.

Happy Birthday
Granny is looking forward to her birthday, and to celebrating it with her family.

The Captain
A captain travels alone across seas and oceans in his small boat. One windless day he comes across a fat seagull, which helps him realize what he's looking for.

I'm Still Here Ainda Estou Aqui

Walter Salles

Thursday, 31. 07. 2025 / 21:30 / The Ljubljana Castle

Rio de Janeiro, early 1970s. The Paiva family live a full and happy life in a house by the beach. One day, however, everything is turned upside-down when the military junta abducts the father. Director Walter Salles (Central Station, The Motorcycle Diaries) based his heartbreaking film on memoirs written by the son of the seven-member family. »An engrossing, affecting tribute to a formidable woman and her family.« – Screen Daily. »A gripping, profoundly touching film with a deep well of pathos. It’s one of Salles’ best.« – The Hollywood Reporter. Oscar for Best International Feature Film.

Nosferatu Nosferatu

Robert Eggers

In September 1924, one of the greatest masterpieces of the silent era, F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror, was shown in a cinema on Kolodvorska Street. One hundred years later, Kinodvor presents a new version of the expressionist classic as envisioned by Robert Eggers.

Materialists Materialists

Celine Song

Saturday, 02. 08. 2025 / 21:30 / The Ljubljana Castle

Lucy works at a high-end matchmaking company trying to pair up moneyed entrepreneurs with elite bachelors and bachelorettes. When she meets Harry at the wedding of two of her successfully paired clients, she immediately knows that this ‘unicorn’ would be a perfect catch for a lot of her customers. But Harry is more interested in Lucy. And then her ex suddenly shows up… As we could expect from the director of Past Lives, Materialists is not exactly a romantic comedy about a matchmaker torn between two suitors, but rather a lucid examination of the contradictions of love and dating.
