The Idomeni refugee camp housed people from the Middle East who were trying to cross the border into Europe. When the Greek police closed the camp, the refugees resisted and blocked a railway line used to deliver goods. Maria Kourkouta’s minimalist documentary not only observes these events but also presents carefully modeled static images that open up the space within and without the frame of view, and in the closing black-and-white sequence offers a poetic commentary. The result is a bleak portrait of a place where endless lines of refugees try to preserve the final remnants of their individual freedoms. “This film is a call to welcome the refugees that cross the European borders, as well as the ghosts that return with them.”

On a distant planet, two scientists analyzing the field for its magnetic properties are facing an extraordinary phenomenon linked to the lunar eclipse.

The creature starts to explore her new surroundings, a place she will eventually make her own.

Sebastien é um jovem de uma pequena localidade francesa que se muda para Paris e aí começa a delinear um novo estilo de vida, distanciando-se progressivamente da postura tímida e recatada que o caracterizava até então. À medida que vai conhecendo novos lugares e pessoas, redescobre-se a si próprio e aceita, finalmente, a sua orientação sexual, afastando-se dos constrangimentos e medos que o limitavam na sua cidade-natal. Contudo, quando tudo parece estar a desenvolver-se de forma próspera, Romain, o seu melhor amigo com quem entretanto perdeu o contato, telefona-lhe dizendo que está em Paris e que pretende reencontrá-lo. O problema é que, para Sebastien, Romain não era apenas mais um amigo, e reencontrá-lo pode fazer ressurgir uma série de sentimentos dolorosamente ambíguos e confusos.
