Gora
2017 · ★ 6
Gorani people live in Gora, in the south of Kosovo. They are Muslims who speak a Slavic language. Throughout the years they were always used for political games of power between the surrounding nations (Serbs, Macedonians, Bulgarians, Albanians, Bosnians...). This is the first film that deals with the way these people are, not who they are or who they belong to. The film observes their everyday life, diverse culture, rich herds of cows, sheep and shepherd dogs. They work, talk, dance, play music, discuss, preach, pray, walk and sing as the mountains above remind them how ephemeral their existence is.

The Berlin Symphony of Rhythm
2025 · ★ 10
The Berlin Symphony of Rhythm, a powerful 95-minute documentary by multiple award-winning Nigerian-German filmmaker Idris Aleshinloye, whose prior works Breaking Borders and Silent Scars have garnered international acclaim for their bold, human-centered storytelling. This emotionally charged film pulls back the curtain on Berlin’s vibrant street performance scene, revealing a world where captivating music and public artistry mask deeper societal tensions. Though Berlin is widely celebrated as a global cultural capital, the very artists who infuse its streets with rhythm and soul, many of them migrants or cultural minorities often face an often harsh and invisible struggle. Street performance remains technically illegal in many areas of the city, subjecting these musicians to fines, confiscation of instruments, and public hostility.
