Comedian Harmonists
Berlim, 1927. Seis jovens ambiciosos unem suas forças para buscar uma visão criativa única. Com disciplina e trabalho duro, eles logo dominam um repertório que foca a música "A Cappella" com letras que vão desde o sentimental até o absolutamente tolo. Seu sucesso na Alemanha é ecoado por triunfos no exterior e gravações vendidas em todo o mundo. E suas vidas se transformam em uma grande festa, com todas as mulheres, carros e luxo que eles querem. Mas enquanto eles ignoram a política, a política não os ignora. Três dos seis Harmonists são judeus, e, portanto, inaceitáveis para os nazistas, que os forçam a dissolver o grupo. O que começou como uma das histórias de sucesso mais encantadoras dos "loucos anos vinte" é destruído por uma ideologia intolerante. Os nazistas põem fim aos cômicos Harmonists, mas não consegue silenciar suas vozes.

Terminals
Music
A filmic exploration of the working conditions of female workers at nuclear power stations. Voices of women describe their heightened exposure to the risks of lung cancer, miscarriage, Down syndrome or neurological damage. Echoing the way that the nuclear workers’ bodies are harmed by exposure to radiations, the filmstrip is constantly overexposed, burned to the point of the image’s near disappearance. Sandra Lahire (1950-2001) was a central figure in the experimental feminist filmmaking that emerged in the UK in the 1980s. She made a number of films addressing the dangers of nuclear power.
