Bahar in Wonderland

Director: Behrooz Karamizade.

Where do you hide from danger, when you can´t hide anywhere? The little girl Bahar believes she has found a way.

„Bahar in Wonderland“ is the story of Bahar, a little girl, who given the circumstances she is in, is not able to be a child. In order to fight her fears and defend herself from danger she believes in being able to get invisible by closing her eyes.

Balakka - Loved Woman

Director: Shrivas Nydu.

In the private world of a woman, love, heart, and touch-sensation are considered in the first place where for a man, body, lust, power and sex are priority. But what in a reversed case...? It’s called ‘Triya Charitra’ the character of woman! They say when God could not understand, what to say about a man?


Triya (the woman) is Chhaya (a shadow). Triya is Maya (an illusion). Who could hold shadow (Chhaya) and who can acquire an illusion (Maya) in his acquisition? If ‘Chhaya’ is a con then Maya too is a siren. 'Balakka’ - Loved Woman is all about Triya’s (woman’s) hocus-pocus nature. Balakka in Sanskrit is used for erotic woman. Ironically, 'Balakka' is the man’s ‘Kamini’ (the desired woman)! And he is very possessive about her. But who can confine love and mind?


'Balakka - Loved Women' combines the two ends of feelings of love and authority together. It’s the comic story on the classic theme. The film portrays the colours of both the phenomena of Chhaya (Shadow) and Maya (Illusion) in women.


A rickshaw driver Popo loves his wife Chhaya unconditionally. Chhaya is the whole world for him. One day when he finds her in the arms of someone else, his world gets shattered. On the other hand is an attorney, Premchand Ajabia. He had a crush on Maya in his college days and still lives in those illusionary memories of Maya, though Maya's settled with a rich fellow. But after years when Premchand gets a letter from her that creates a flutter in his life.


One city, two men and two ‘Apsaras’ (fairies) of their dreams.... Life twists and turns this side and that side. Not a breath of relief. Never ending feelings of restlessness. Pity on circumstances or laugh at the characters. Is love really a destiny? If you ask about it, the same answer will be repeated – Don’t ask. Fall in and feel it.

Barbarossa and the Towers of Italy

user
Director: Tony Olmetti Schweikle.
The program is about “Saracen Pirates,” from countries around the Mediterranean Sea, and their attacks on the coastal cities of southern Italy to capture men, women and children for the slave markets of North Africa. Also filmed in vivid detail are some of the thousands of Watchtowers that were built along the shores of the Ionian, Tyrrhenian and Adriatic Seas. Hundreds have withstood the assault of man and nature and can be visited today. The history of these towers and the people who manned them has never been told. All re-enactments were filmed at the sites of theses pirate attacks. Most of the extras are descended from survivors of these attacks. The time period of Pirate attacks takes place in the 1500’s. Other portions of the program cover 1,000 years of Mediterranean history, beginning with the first Watchtowers built on the island of Sardegna, circa 1500BC The program ends with the attack on the village of Ispani in 1532 by Pasha Heyreddin, (Barbarossa.) Heyreddin was an Admiral in the Ottoman Empire who attacked many cities in Italy, including Capri, where there is today a castle built by him. The video portion of the program was filmed in Italy with HD P2 cameras. All re-enactment scenes were filmed by the production company.

Baron Münchhausen

user
Director: Andreas Linke.

Baron Muenchhausen tells the legendary adventure tales of the German "Baron of Lies". As the story unfolds he has seen better times and tells his high tales at a pub for money when a girl claims to be his daughter. To prove her wrong they make their way to St. Petersburg to see her mother and experience many unbelievable adventures on their journey.

Second chapter
The cannonball catapulted Munchhausen and Frieda up onto the moon; the Man in the Moon blesses mankind from up here with shooting stars and he gives the two heroes the rope with which they can get back down to earth – right into the middle of the deepest Russian winter. In the bitter cold, even the Russian post horns freeze. But Frieda does not seem to be in a hurry to return to her mother. In St Petersburg too, the girl does everything she can to stay longer with Munchhausen. In the Tsarina's palace, she finds a scheming  adversary in the shape of Catherine the Great. She wants to have Munchhausen all to herself and is madly jealous of the child which looks so like her Baron. When she discovers Frieda's secret, her life is no longer safe…
