    • Wisdom of Happiness Wisdom of Happiness

    Barbara Miller, Philip Delaquis

    With disarming wit, the Dalai Lama reflects on balancing millennia-old Tibetan Buddhist traditions with the contemporary values of our globalised society that now struggles to overcome violence and war while standing on the brink of environmental collapse. In this intimate heart-to-heart, the nearly 90-year-old Nobel Peace Laureate and the world’s greatest ambassador for compassion brings a timely message of hope. Wisdom of Happiness blends the Dalai Lama’s inspirational words with stirring images of our planet and newly unearthed archival footage.

    Dreams (Sex Love) Drømmer

    Dag Johan Haugerud

    Johanne falls in love for the first time… with her teacher. To preserve her overwhelming experience, she entrusts her feelings to paper. When her mother and grandmother read her writings, they are initially shocked by its intimate content but soon see its literary potential… »Refreshingly unexpected, Dag Johan Haugerud’s Dreams breathes new life into the often oversimplified genre of sexual awakening that seems to draw on his twinned career in both cinema and books.« – Deadline. Golden Bear at the last Berlinale.

    Fiume o morte! Fiume o morte!

    Igor Bezinović

    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.

    Is a “good” breakup possible? Spanish director Jonás Trueba’s film is a playful and witty nod to the classic remarriage comedies of the 1930s and 1940s, showing that separation can hold just as much love and hope as a reunion.
