Home

Unlike the previous ones, “Home” is a full-length feature film. It`s more like social art – there is no narrator, who will explain you everything on the screen. The film shows wonderful views of our planet and the unhealed scars, that were left by the anthropogenic activity – industrialization, effects of endless wars, environmental disasters, which were caused by people. This film simply reveals the real situation on the planet without any blaming commentaries. “Home” was created as a call to unite people under the common aim – to save the future of Earth.

Deep Web

Nowadays, the Internet is a huge part of our lives. It ruins the borders, lets you travel everywhere you want and buy everything you want just sitting on the couch in your room. But not everyone knows – the Internet that we explore with the normal access is just the peak of the iceberg.

Exit Through the Gift Shop

Street Art

Banksy is the world famous street artist, who is known for his interesting, shocking, ironical and extremely social works – from the rat with a brush to the kissing constables. This documentary was supposed to be about Banksy, but it has turned into a much deeper thing. The plot is extremely complicated. The film tells about the artist Mr. Brainwash, who decided to practice street art. Firstly, his aim was just to film how other artists go on streets. That all changed, when he made friends with Banksy, and decided to do art himself. Mr. Brainwash is surprisingly talented and clever, but over the time he begins to copy other works, thus he turns creativity into the “gift shop”. Banksy shows up in this documentary with his face covered. Also, you will see a lot of famous artists, like Space Invader and OBEY. And, of course, there is a lot of street art and humor in this film.
