Oddly Compelling: The Denis Kitchen Story

Studio 54 was the epicenter of 70s hedonism - a place that not only redefined the nightclub, but also came to symbolize an entire era. Its co-owners, Ian Schrager and Steve Rubell, two friends from Brooklyn, seemed to come out of nowhere to suddenly preside over a new kind of New York society. Now, 39 years after the velvet rope was first slung across the club's hallowed threshold, a feature documentary tells the real story behind the greatest club of all time.

Bécaud, mon père

A newly edited 1993 interview with Italian filmmaker Massimo Pupillo.

The film 'Canterbury is One Hundred' was produced by the National Film Unit in 1950 to celebrate the region's centennial. Written and directed by Oxley Hughan, it emphasises the bucolic agricultural productivity of the Canterbury region, particularly through the lambing and wheat-growing industries. Life in Canterbury's cities is presented as people 'taking pleasure in their neat gardens and comfortable wooden houses', in contrast to the rustic huts built by the early settlers a century earlier. The film is also a poignant tribute to Christchurch's celebrated Neo-Gothic architecture, much of which was destroyed following the February 2011 earthquake.

In Nova Lima, gold arrived before the city itself. Fragments of past and future intertwine in the present of this story that begins in 1834 and shows no sign of ending.

Christiane Taubira : une loi pour mémoire

Botanical gardens have long aroused the curiosity and wonder of visitors with exotic species from all over the world. Today they are taking on a new role as vital centres for the protection of biodiversity. From Berlin to London to the French Alps, we take a peek behind-the-scenes of these fascinating institutions.

The hundreds of letters left behind after Latif Demirci's passing describe not only a illustrator's fanbase, but the troubles and dreams of a certain era in Turkey, and a human spirit naive enough to confide in a cartoon hero. While the documentary traces the loss between the slowness of the letter and today's culture of speed, it puts forth a very original portrait of the artist, highlighted by the contributions of his filmmaker daughter Yasemin Demirci, his artistic partner Behiç Pek, and comic book historian Levent Cantek.

Is it possible to rebuild through a collection of archives? Based on a video workshop organized in Perú in June 2022, this short film aims at initiating the creation of a freely accessible, grassroots video archive for anyone who, in the future, wishes to preserve and continue building upon local memory.

The infinite stories of millions of families and individuals lie hidden in the photo albums and undeveloped film rolls tucked away in drawers, chests, and storage rooms. 'Pedro y la alegría' pours out all these images to reconstruct Pedro and Ana, a hard-working Andalusian couple full of life, history, and photographs to share.

Decades after Ric Routledge reshaped the dog show world, a forgotten storage unit reveals the story he never finished. Built from his own cassette recordings, archival footage, and the voices of those closest to him, Sincerely, Ric is a documentary about ambition, authorship, and what a man leaves behind.
