She appears to have set a date with him. But he has not arrived. While she waits for her husband she interacts with the figures/statues in the Hall of Fame.

However, while she waits Hanan only makes an effort to improve the appearances of the figures that represent regional and world political leaders who are responsible for the chaos that ravages the Middle East. Despite Hanan’s effort, it will difficult for them to appear ‘clean.’

The film tells how in the iron blockade of the blockade worked "the blood factory", the Institute of blood transfusion that provided the Leningrad front and the city in this strategic resource: blood donation. The blood bond between the city and its defenders was a very important factor in breaking the blockade and finally crushing the enemy. Due to a prolonged lack of food and a very great psychic stress the blood of the inhabitants of Leningrad has undergone phenomenal biochemical transformations which have had consequences for the following generations. The hypothesis confirmed by the latest research by geneticists and biologists is that this 900-day "forced fast" suffered by people during the blockade gave a post-war generation with a specific mentality and a spirit of sacrifice of the inhabitants. from Saint Petersburg.

Il mio unico crimine è vedere chiaro nella notte addresses the issues of censorship in Italian cinema and psychological removal in art. The work’s title—my only crime is seeing clearly in the night—incisively highlights the conflict at the basis of creation and censorship. The film, with its re-imagining of film fragments, cut out and eliminated with bureaucratic scrupulousness, doggedly retraces the cuts inflicted on the productions of past masters and thinks them through once again as the signs of a cinema yearning to be completed. The cut, which aims to interrupt the relationship between the gaze and the possible, instead becomes a place to be repopulated with… ghosts.

Humans, Animals, Earth, Wind and Water, converge with the same energy of a filmic fire, which crosses and relates them. By the appropriation of educational images of 16 mm films, which in the past were used to educate us, Animal Within evokes a poetic collision between images of the human and the animal.

Three short films, out of the ordinary, brought together under a bewitching and enticing title. They are After School Knife Fight by the duo Poggi/Vinel, Les Îles by Gonzales, and Ultra Pulpe by Mandico. Three atmospheres, three sensitivities, going through three forms of expression (music, theatre and cinema) and which, put end-to-end, create an alternative pathway towards borrowed worlds of romance first, then obsession, and in the end, possession. Worlds of soft naivety, of nightmarish creatures and of pop fantasy, reminding us of the mysterious and velvety snatches of our dreams that stick to the spirit when one leaves them.
