The commandant of Auschwitz, Rudolf Höss, and his wife Hedwig, strive to build a dream life for their family in a house and garden next to the camp – it is hard to imagine that just a hair’s breadth away from the peaceful and idyllic Höss household, the unimaginable horrors of the Final Solution are unfolding in full swing.  When evil becomes banal and apathy requires no effort, what separates man from beast?
[Nick Riganas – IMDB]

Director: Jonathan Glazer

Unexpectedly, she finds herself falling into a passion with a man and is suddenly faced with the decision of whether to pursue the traditional route of coupling or continue to pursue a life of independence.

Everyone has their own Chimera, something they try to achieve but never manage to find. For the band of tombaroli, thieves of ancient grave goods and archaeological wonders, the Chimera means redemption from work and the dream of easy wealth. For Arthur, the Chimera looks like, Benjamina, the woman he lost. To find her, Arthur will challenge the invisible and search everywhere for the door to the afterlife of which myths speak.

Director: Alice Rohrwacher (Happy As Lazarro)
