  • Alexandra, a masterpiece of Alexandr Sukurov, very realistic about the madness of (Chechnian) war, without even one gunshot, with a classic role of Galina Vishnevskaya, operastar and the wife of the late cellist Rostropovich;
  • Help me Eros, in the madness of Taipeh (Taiwan), when a bankrupt man freaks out completely in a world of sex and design, an I can assure you that the Animal’s Party in Taiwan does not have a member of parliament :-) ;
  • The Mourning Forest; I always liked forests, as i grown up in the (green) East of my country and this forest looks like the Mother of all Forests; also touching about the power of elderness;
  • Bashing (2005), a terrifying story about mass hysteria, from Filmmaker in Focus Kobayashi Masahiro;
  • Hemel boven Holland, based on the story of Mohammed B., who killed Theo van Gogh, a first appearance of dutch filmmaker Rolf van Eijk, with a beautiful – strange word in this context – play of leading actor Sabir Al Haft;
