"The Cleaners" - A film on driving people crazy and to the verge of depression, somewhere in Asia. Who’s doing that? Well, all of us, Facebook users. (Fantastic).

 

"Once Upon a Time In Poland" – Polish religious zeal in a nushell. A portrait drawn by someone from the outside is priceless, it’s a pity our Czech neighbours only got to see our caricature. (Good).

 

"The Mole: Undercover In North Korea" -  A retired cook leads an undercover operation to gain access to North Korea’s top secret military details : without his wife’s knowing. No mountain too high. This film is pure gold. A document showing our need to do something unique. (Fantastic).

 

"The Painter And the Thief" – A film about how a victim of a robbery can come to terms with the robber himself, gain some common ground, and even become friends. An incredible story that starts with the stealing of two paintings. (Great, albeit a bit too long).

 

"I Am Not Your Negro" – A story of the United States as seen from the Afroamerican writer  Jamesa Baldwin. He coined the phrase "recipe fort he fall of a nation”. We study this recipe in the film and learn to use it in self -defence – just in case anyone wants to use it on us. (Powerful).

 

"Sakawa" – Hard to swallow for moralists, Young boys from Ghana find hard disks on a dump, which we created by all the computers we throw to waste.  They use the disks to collect our data, and later –pretending to be women – attract us and our cash. Kept on watching and keeping my fingers crossed for them. (Great).

 

"The Swedish Theory of Love" – Solitude as a human right, assured by the state. Alienation as something publicly and culturally acceptable. (Bewildering).

 

"Face Places" – The most cherful and positive title in the collection Two artists give special meaning to the life of a miner’s wife, a farmer, a waitress, or factory workers. (Beautiful)
