Berlin Cook
Berlín, 1942. Bruno tiene ocho años y desconoce el significado de la Solución Final y del Holocausto. No es consciente de las pavorosas crueldades que su país, en plena guerra mundial, está infligiendo a los pueblos de Europa. Todo lo que sabe es que su padre -recién nombrado comandante de un campo de concentración- ha ascendido en el escalafón, y que ha pasado de vivir en una confortable casa de Berlín a una zona aislada. Todo cambia cuando conoce a Shamuel, un niño judío que vive una extraña existencia paralela al otro lado de la alambrada.
Virág
Filmed in commemoration of Hungary's 1100th anniversary and on the sites of the actual events, a cast of thousands authentically recreates the 896 AD arrival of the Magyar chief Arpad (Nero) and his seven tribes into the Carpathian basin from the steppes.
Leading Lady
A lighthouse guardian leads a young prince towards an imaginary world, Taxandria, where the boy learns about the power of love and the value of liberty. A totalitarian regime has forbidden time: time watches have been confiscated, photo cameras are illegal as they freeze a point in time. A typical Servais theme: a power is oppressed by a constraint that denies what is best in the individual, and therefore has to be twisted in various ways, to establish an entirely artificial world, that has rules that may question some of the rules of our world at this side of the mirror.
