Resonance in the Castle, 17min., USA
Directed by Brandon Katcher
A mysterious castle breathes with light and color, drawing all who enter into its shifting embrace. Stained glass spills vivid hues across ancient stone, golden reflections dance over strange artifacts, and ethereal performances flare up like living paintings. Surreal, electric, and unbound by space or time. Musicians, dancers, and performance artists bring their visions to life, each performance casting a ripple, before fading into the ether. A place of mystery and spectacle, this living museum exists only in the moment it is seen, leaving behind only echoes. Here, the castle is not a place but a state of mind, a dream in motion, inviting us to lose ourselves within its walls.

Stamino, 11min., Czech Republic
Directed by Marie-Anna Šulc
Stamino drifts through fatigue and the quiet rituals of nourishment and recovery, always accompanied by vulnerability, the urge to heal, and a wry gaze toward a culture obsessed with the body and its perfection. It moves between closeness and distance, frustration and renewal, tracing the edges of what it means to live in a body that aches, adapts, and resists. Beneath it all runs a longing for meaning, for connection, for transformation, within the slow and uncertain struggle of becoming.

Café Kuba: Who Dared to Awaken the Dead Memory, 28min,. Congo

Filmed after the M23 rebel group’s capture of Goma, as they threatened Kinshasa, the film portrays a city on the brink of conflict.

Fiona Haegerbergh, a journalist for The Metro Standard, arrives in a rural Norwegian town to investigate rising drug use. Officially, she’s there to produce a webcast— but Fiona has her own agenda: uncovering the truth behind the recent suspicious death of a local drug dealer. Fiona’s editor urges her to stay on task, as much is riding on the Metro Standard’s survival—now largely dependent on the recent success of its popular web series.
Get to know the writer:
What is your screenplay about?
My screenplay is about a journalist Fiona Haegerbergh, who travels to a remote Norwegian town to cover rising drug use for her paper’s popular web series, but she’s secretly investigating the suspicious death of a local dealer. She’s met with hostility from townsfolk and a wary sheriff, but she gradually earns his reluctant trust as she digs into the community’s hidden drug network. Her search leads to Jenny, a young mine worker with ties to Fiona’s brother, who may have inherited the operation. When Jenny is suddenly found drowned, Fiona’s investigation takes a darker turn and she is faced with a devastating choice: expose what she’s uncovered and risk her own secret being revealed—or stay silent and let the town’s shadows close in.
