纪录片《太阳之下》(Under the Sun)讲述了8岁朝鲜女孩珍美（Zin-mi，音）准备加入“朝鲜少年团”的故事。这是一个由执政党劳动党管理的组织。珍美的母亲在豆浆厂工作，父亲是服装厂的工程师，一家三口享用丰盛的家宴，乘坐平壤一尘不染的地铁，并瞻仰朝鲜开国领袖金日成的青铜像。 只有一个问题：这些都是假的。北朝鲜政府为影片挑选演员，为他们写好台词，找人指导他们说台词，全剧每一个细节都被精心管理和审查着。现实中，珍美的父亲是个记者，她的妈妈在餐厅工作。“不要像演电影似的，”有一次，一个拍摄指导训斥珍美。“自然点，就像在家里一样。” 最后一个镜头意味深长，珍美对于“快乐”的一无所知和难以抑制的眼泪揭示了民众社会生活的不正常。
Little kids, big dreams and smashingly good music – Dixieland follows the amazing progress of four members of a Ukrainian children’s brass band from Kherson. Through steady practice under the wildest of conditions, Roman (12, trumpet), Polina (10, trombone, drums and many other instruments), Nikita (12, drums) and Nikita (14, piano) produce magical music with ancient, wobbly instruments. Not least due to their wit and good humor, they persevere together, helped along by their 80+-year-old conductor and a young teacher. These children of the post-Soviet provinces use American tunes to achieve their dream – to become someone in the world and make something of their lives, no matter how dire the circumstances. From the authors of an awards winning documentary film Ukrainian Sheriffs.

A cinematic, character-driven insight to what it meant to produce and to own a car in communist times: the Socialist propaganda dreams and the hard reality of living that dream. The freedom that these slow and clumsy vehicles were giving to their owners; the cars as an instrument in the Cold War battle; legends and homemade tune-ups as an attempt to stand at least a little bit off the crowd.
The memory of World War II is the only thing that makes a small Russian town alive. Like a great treasure this memory is preserved here in every home and is passed on from generation to generation.

Around 80 years ago, the gynecologist Carl Clauberg conducted medical experimentation on Jewish girls and women in Auschwitz. The results of those sadistic experiments were used in medicine across the globe. It is possible that German companies played a part in those experiments. Most of the survivors became infertile, and very few of them were later capable to give birth. The Untold Story of Block 10 introduces the audience to those who have survived.
