The film reveals the dark history of totalitarian repressions during the late 1930s, focusing on a peculiar artifact: hedgehog cakes. According to speculative theories, these hedgehog cakes, named after the notorious Soviet people's commissar Nikolai Yezhov (with "yezh" meaning "hedgehog" in Russian), were not just treats but served as secret signals of inescapable danger, marking recipients for possible exile to Siberian camps or even death.

Poster for The Pitch

2025 · ★ 0.0 (0)

When Olympic soccer star Diana Matheson retires, she sets out alongside other players to build something that has never existed: a professional women’s soccer league in Canada. Their journey becomes a modern David and Goliath story as they take on institutional power, doubt, and inertia. Directed by award-winning documentary filmmaker Michèle Hozer (Shake Hands with the Devil, Genius Within: The Inner Life of Glenn Gould, Sugar Coated), the film was shot extensively across the country, including Olympic medalist Erin McLeod's return home to play for the Halifax Tides. The Pitch offers rare access to this fight to change the game: a universal story of resilience and rewriting the rules.

Poster for echoes beyond the horizon

2025 · ★ 0.0 (0)

The Philippines has one of the biggest diaspora of overseas workers in the world. The term Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) is well-known due to this. While the media has always acknowledged the big sacrifices that OFWs make in order to provide for their children an opportunity to live a better life than what they were given, no one talks about the perspective of the children who are left behind, having to grow up and face life without the presence of their parents. This film features Joanna, a Filipina in her mid-20s who has little to no connection left with her OFW mother. As she faces adulthood, she must decide if she wants to let go of her past. Bahay-Bahayan follows Joanna as she reels back to her past through memory and nostalgia.
