Fredrik, a has-been schlager singer, has found the perfect substitute for genuine love and connection - Fredrik now tours the Swedish countryside as a psychic medium, getting showered with admiration by desperate people burdened by grief.

HOLE
By Danilo Stanimirovic

A big excavator, located at the bottom of a gigantic hole is like a hungry beast swallowing earth and coal. On the edges of the hole, archaeologists are slowly discovering an ancient Roman town. While digging in different ways, at different paces, for different purposes, these two localities are living in symbiosis in which both of them are portals to different civilizations. They are having an eternal dialogue about the past, present and future while humans and machines are digging inside of them.

IN HER BELLY
By Thinh Nguyen

Produced byPaloma Productions – Denmark

Are womanhood and motherhood forever intertwined concepts? Thanh, a Vietnamese trans woman might believe they are. As she tries to find a way to separate them, she is confronted with the realities of two very different women: her Danish neighbor Ida, who is struggling as a new mother; and Thanh’s mother, Thu, who became a mother out of duty. I HENDES MAVE is an exploration of these women’s experiences as they transit the lines that tie and separate motherhood from womanhood.

THE FIGURE'S FALL

By Mathilde Supe

Produced by La Cellule Productions – France

On a cold morning in a big city, a woman in her 30s is going through an existential crisis: fleeing from a man who does not see her, she wanders the streets in tears, lost, needing attention. Everything around her is aggressive: the stares of passers-by or the absence thereof, the ads especially challenge her with defiance...
She takes shelter in a museum, where she will find calm and make a surrealistic encounter with some paintings about the origins of capitalism. A part of history on which she will cast a glance, her own glance.
