Serge Ioan Celebidachi directed the Romanian film Octav, about an 80-year old musician who returns to his family home after decades. Moments from his childhood intermingle with scenes from the present.
The film Rosemarie, by director Yiannis Kokkinos of Cyprus, looks at a burned out soap opera writer who finds inspiration by watching his neighbors, but he sees more than he expected or probably should.
The documentary film The Ballad of a Righteous Merchant by Herbert Golder shows director Werner Herzog working on his 2009 film My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done
Golder has known Herzog for over 28 years and also co-wrote the script of My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done?
There are also three sets of short films and music videos. The music video #Instagram, directed by Valeriya Gai Germanika, will be presented by the singer Diana Arbenina from the Russian rock group Nochnye Snaipery (Night Snipers).
The festival ends with an award ceremony.
