- When Floh, armed with her accordion, starts one of her songs on the Grand-Place in Brussels, she does so with raucous energy. Brussels. Like the songs of Edith Piaf, she anchors her lyrics in the gloominess of the day-to-day, the tensions of our society and the conflicts of the world.
- Out Skerries is a minuscule archipelago of the United Kingdom located in Scotland, to the east of the Shetland Islands, in the middle of the North Sea. A few years ago, the fish farm-the island's main economic resource and the only company offering the possibility of a job-went bankrupt. Then the government closed the secondary school. The archipelago's population went from 70 to about 20 inhabitants - Julie Powis Arthur is one of the women who remained. Her husband, then her eldest son, had to leave their house for the Mainland and only rarely come back. She is alone with her youngest children, in her empty house battered by the winds. Her day-to-day follows the rhythm of the activities and states of mind of those gone: their coming and goings, their fears and their difficulties that she shares from a distance. She continues to be the cornerstone of her scattered family and this household that she had meticulously built. Vaarheim means "our house" in the Shetlandic dialect. And the film is balanced between the interior and the exterior of Julie's house, perched above the sea, in the middle of a pasture that is always green beneath a sky that is always grey.
- The Arhuacos are the guardians of the forest and the ice of Colombia highest mountain, the Sierra Nevada Santa Marta. They draw from this unique environment a preserved and singular spirituality. For the first time a director was invited to visit the heartland of the sacred mountain. Hick tells the story of resistance which is a voyage through space and time: from the shores of the Caribbean to the stars that light up the night on the glacier and from the encounter with the first colonizing whites to the return of the warriors following FARC's laying-down of arms.
- On the heights of Sarajevo, in the fog, we discover men who are milling around an abandoned house. Who are they? What are they doing? What tracks are they busy trying to erase? In one movement, a slow tracking shot, we see the connection between wild nature and rectilinear construction, the gestures of the present and the ruins of the past, characters who are very much alive and History that is still raw.
