The Chair

A sentient chair becomes jealous of a living boy

Life of a Mutt

Through seven scenes, the film follows the life and destinies of stray dogs from the margins of our society, leading us to reconsider our attitude towards them. Through the seven “wandering” characters that we follow at different ages, from birth to old age, we witness their dignified struggle for survival. At the cemetery, in an abandoned factory, in an asylum, in a landfill, in places full of sorrow, our heroes search for love and togetherness. By combining documentary material, animation and acting interpretation of the thoughts of our heroes, we get to know lives between disappointment and hope, quite similar to ours.

The Bridge - Il ponte dei suicidi

The Bridge è il controverso documentario che mostra la gente che salta alla morte dal Golden Gate Bridge di San Francisco. Il regista Eric Steel è stato impegnato per un anno sotto il famigerato ponte a filmare 23 suicidi.

La marcia dei pinguini

Il pinguino imperatore che vive nelle regioni antartiche deve migrare per diversi mesi in determinate zone per riprodursi e allevare i propri figli. La marcia dei pinguini segue da vicino il viaggio di una colonia e successivamente una coppia di questi che affronta diverse marce affinché il piccolo possa resistere al freddo e alla fame del periodo dopo la sua nascita. Il film mostra le sofferenze dei pinguini durante la loro riproduzione, partendo dalla marcia che dall'oceano li porterà all'interno della regione ghiacciata. Qui si formeranno le coppie che si riprodurranno e aspetteranno la nascita del loro unico figlio. Alcuni piccoli muoiono dal freddo ed il motivo è perché uno dei pinguini ha sbagliato qualche passo della loro danza facendo così cadere l'uovo nel ghiaccio e facendolo congelare... e allora la madre va a rubare il figlio ad un altro pinguino
