Desire Will Set You Free is a feature film that explores life in contemporary Berlin with an often critical and sometimes humorous eye. Based on a true story, the plot follows the relationship of an American writer of Israeli/Palestinian descent and a Russian aspiring artist working as a hustler, offering access to the city's vibrant queer and underground scenes while examining the differences between expatriate and refugee life. Our characters travel through Berlin's layered history and unique subcultural landscape; on their adventures they discover influences and remnants of the Weimar Republic, WWII, the Bowie years, and punk.

"If buildings could talk, what would they say about us?" CATHEDRALS OF CULTURE offers six startling responses. This 3D film project about the soul of buildings allows six iconic and very different buildings to speak for themselves, examining human life from the unblinking perspective of a manmade structure. Six acclaimed filmmakers bring their own visual style and artistic approach to the project. Buildings, they show us, are material manifestations of human thought and action: the Berlin Philharmonic, an icon of modernity; the National Library of Russia, a kingdom of thoughts; Halden Prison, the world's most humane prison; the Salk Institute, an institute for breakthrough science; the Oslo Opera House, a futuristic symbiosis of art and life; and the Centre Pompidou, a modern culture machine. CATHEDRALS OF CULTURE explores how each of these landmarks reflects our culture and guards our collective memory.

Безжалостная, за гранью фола пародия на полицейские триллеры и фильмы ужасов, вызывающая порой просто истерический смех. В политкорректной Америке середины 90-х вряд ли смогли бы так посмеяться над собой. Много тупого немецкого юмора. Вместе с тем, фильм выдержан в хорошем кичевом ключе от начала до конца. Фильм снят по комиксам Ральфа Кенинга. В отеле, где снимают номера для сексуальных утех, появляется презерватив-убийца, откусывающий причинное место у своих "пользователей". Это дело расследует полицейский-гей Луиджи Макерони. Поначалу ему никто не верит, но когда зубастый монстр лишает мужского достоинства кандидата в президенты, Луиджи дают зеленый свет и он начинает беспощадную, безжалостную охоту. В конце концов храбрый полицейский ловит прародителя - огромный презерватив-убийцу на своего огромного "живца"...
