A German Lifeis a portrait of the closest associate, secretary and typist of the notorious Joseph Goebbels, Brunhilde Pomsel, who recently passed away age 105.

The film includes healing treatments, shamanic processes, approaching the intimate creative process of one of the most important artists of our time as never before. 

Transience of fame is the focus of Steam on the River by Filip Remunda and Robert Kichhoff. The claim that the artists' fame is temporary is testified by absurd, funny and sometimes tragic stories from three extremely talented aging jazz musicians, all peculiar personalities who left former Czechoslovakia at the peak of their fame and moved west, to New York City, Paris and Stuttgart. 

The British author Liam Saint-Pierre in his film Reinvention of Normal paints a portrait of Dominic Wilcox, artist, inventor and designer on a passionate quest for new ideas, who turns ordinary and everyday into surprising, uncanny and provocative. The film has won best documentary awards at short film festivals in New York City and Berlin.
