The New Greatness Case
Producer
Anya was an ordinary Moscow teenager who found a chat group of her choice online. They talked about animals, the stars and social issues. A man called Ruslan D joined the group, who set up an office space for the online group to meet. Step by step, he began to lead young people who were critical of the Putin's regime towards political activism. Ruslan D placed a camera in the meeting room, and when he had enough footage, he handed it over to the prosecutor. The police raided the teenagers' homes and they were arrested on charges of planning to overthrow the government and terrorism. Three years of legal proceedings transformed Anya's mother from a loyal follower of Putin to a hunger-striking activist. Moscow-based director Anna Shishova followed Anya and her mother's life throughout the event and eventually revealed the true identity of Ruslan D.

O Peso do Silêncio
Co-Producer
Continuação do aclamado documentário “O Ato de Matar”. Aqui, uma família que sobreviveu ao genocídio na Indonésia confronta os homens que mataram um de seus irmãos. Através do documentário de Joshua Oppenheimer, filmando os responsáveis pelo genocídio indonésio, uma família de sobreviventes descobre como é que o filho foi assassinado e a identidade dos homens que o mataram. O mais novo dos irmãos está determinado a quebrar o feitiço de silêncio e medo sob o qual vivem os sobreviventes e, assim, confronta os homens responsáveis pelo assassinato do irmão – algo inimaginável num país onde os assassinos permanecem no poder. Rodado também em 2012, logo após a montagem de “Ato de Matar” (mas antes do seu lançamento), “O Olhar do Silêncio” é uma visão alternativa dos eventos, desta vez sob o ponto de vista das vítimas. Com esta obra, Joshua Oppenheimer ganhou o Grande Prêmio do Júri e Prêmio FIPRESCI no Festival de Cinema de Veneza.
