AQUÍ

In a new land where everyone receives a new name and begins again without a past, Simón takes responsibility for David, a child he met on the crossing to a new life. Driven by an inexplicable conviction, he sets out to find the boy’s mother despite the fact David remembers nothing about her. When he recognizes Inés as the right woman, she accepts the role and an unlikely bond forms between them. While society imposes rules and treats difference as a threat, David resists being shaped and stands for imagination and freedom.

Based on the “Jesus Trilogy” by Nobel Prize winner J.M. Coetzee.

by Alexander Murphy (GOODBYE SISTERS)
2026 - Ireland/France - Documentary - 105 min
Along a long-forgotten road, the O’Reillys live in a rundown trailer stranded in the middle of the fields. Pa’, Lisa, and their ten children weather the seasons in their tin castle, heirs to a way of life on borrowed time. Under threat of eviction, their tenuous balance falters, yet - steadfast in their tradition - they resist. The children laugh, the dogs bark, the trailer holds on - but for how long?

MARIINKA
by Pieter-Jan De Pue (THE LAND OF THE ENLIGHTENED)
2026 - Belgium/Netherlands/Germany/Sweden - Documentary - 94 min
In Eastern Ukraine, childhood neighbors find their lives violently derailed by a shifting frontline. Natasha, a promising boxing talent, becomes a military paramedic. Angela, who lost her parents at a young age, survives by moving goods to both sides of the front. Caught in a modern Greek tragedy, brothers Mark and Ruslan now fight on opposite sides - against each other. In the safety of his adoptive family in the United States, their youngest brother Daniil follows the war from afar.

Filmed over a decade on 16mm, MARIINKA begins long before the world watched the full-scale invasion. It is the highly anticipated second feature by Pieter-Jan De Pue, following his Sundance award-winning debut, THE LAND OF THE ENLIGHTENED.
