참여 작품

이노센스
Development Producer
전쟁이라는 살상 행위를 합리화하기 위해서는 도덕적 당위성이 필요하다. 이스라엘의 모든 남성과 여성은 만 18세가 되면 병역의무가 부과된다. 무력 동원의 명분을 얻기 위해 유대인으로서 핍박받은 역사, 중동의 지정학적 상황, ‘하나님의 의로움을 드러낸다’는 종교적 신앙까지 이용된다. 이 과정에서 의문을 품고, 정신적 고통에 괴로워하며, 종내 죽음에 이르는 수많은 젊은이들의 목소리는 외면된다. 병역 거부가 터부시되는 사회에서 군 복무 중 목숨을 끊은 외로운 아이들이 겪은 내적 갈등과 외적 압박을 섬세하게 묘사한다.
Josephine Baker: The Story of an Awakening
Editor
How did a poor little black girl from Missouri become the Queen of Paris, before joining the French Resistance and finally creating her dream family “The Rainbow Tribe”, adopting twelve children from four corners of the world? This is the fabulous story of the first black superstar, Josephine Baker.
Amal
Editor
Amal is 14 years old when she ends up on Tahrir Square during the Egyptian revolution, after the death of her boyfriend in the Port Said Stadium riot. During the protests, she is beaten by police and dragged across the square by her hair. This coming-of-age film follows her over the years after the revolution. As the film cuts between the unfolding current events and Amal’s rapidly changing life and appearance, we see her searching for her own identity in a country in transition. Amal is fiery and fearless, sinking her teeth into the protests and constantly lecturing her mother, who works as a judge. A girl among men, she also has to fight for respect and the right to take part, both in the street and in the rest of her life. In Egypt, even for a young woman like Amal—her name means "hope"—the choices open to her for her future are limited.
The Scientist, The Imposter and Stalin: How to Feed the People
Editor
The documentary tells two very different human fates in the 1920s Soviet Union. Nikolai Vavilov was a botanical genius, Trofim Lyssenko was an agronomist who made great promises and fake inventions. Each of them tried to solve the country's nutritional problem, but only one succeeded.

In 1926, Buster Keaton was at the peak of his glory and wealth. By 1933, he had reached rock bottom. How, in the space of a few years, did this uncontested genius of silent films, go from the status of being a widely-worshipped star to an alcoholic and solitary fallen idol? With a spotlight on the 7 years during which his life changed, using extracts of Keaton’s films as magnifying mirrors, the documentary recounts the dramatic life of this creative genius and the Hollywood studios.
