Краткое содержание

In 1937, tens of thousands of Haitians and Dominicans of Haitian descent were exterminated by the Dominican army, on the basis of anti-black racism. Fast-forward to 2013, the Dominican Republic's Supreme Court stripped the citizenship of anyone with Haitian parents, retroactive to 1929, rendering more than 200,000 people stateless. Elena, the young protagonist of the film, and her family stand to lose their legal residency in the Dominican Republic if they don't manage to get their documents in time. Negotiating a mountain of opaque bureaucratic processes and a racist, hostile society around, Elena becomes the face of the struggle to remain in a country built on the labor of her father and forefathers.

Land Without Bread
An exploration —manipulated and staged— of life in Las Hurdes, in the province of Cáceres, in Extremadura, Spain, as it was in 1932. Insalubrity, misery and lack of opportunities provoke the emigration of young people and the solitude of those who remain in the desolation of one of the poorest and least developed Spanish regions at that time.

Цезарь должен умереть
Заканчивается пьеса Шекспира «Юлий Цезарь», занавес, бурные овации. Гаснет свет, актеры покидают сцену и… возвращаются в камеры римской тюрьмы строгого режима «Ребибия». Камера запечатлела грандиозный эксперимент по постановке спектакля режиссером Фабио Кавалли с заключенными, многие из которых отбывают пожизненный срок. Универсальный язык Шекспира помогает новоявленным актерам понять свои роли, вновь познать дружбу и предательство, власть, обман и насилие — сначала в пьесе, а потом и в своей жизни. И хотя подмостки этой пьесы — тюрьма, в самом фильме она удивительным образом исчезает…
