- Crazy Clowns, Crooked Cops and lots of blood and guts... very Tarantinoesque view of a small Minnesota town.
- Vasya Sitnikov was officially insane, a man without a passport, in and out of mental institutions, yet he was the key figure of the nonconformist art movement in the Soviet Union. He left behind astonishing works of art, yet he remains a compelling, controversial mystery. Why does his legend still confound those who knew him?
- Two filmmakers, father and son, reconnect across time, space and the ruins of the Soviet epoch.
- A "direct cinema" documentary that explores the art and inner workings of the major art institution in Kyiv, Ukraine. Two special exhibitions - one dedicated to the Ukrainian baroque and another one to a prominent avant-garde artist - are the two defining events in the film's narrative.
- Michail is an artist. He is working on a series of paintings called "Franz Kafka's Diary". His son Daniel is thirty-four and yet his life is hardly separable from the life of his father. He is deaf and mute, and suffers from a severe form of cerebral palsy. Michail is determined and energetic, Daniel - persistent and charismatic. And they are a striking couple. The film offers a detailed observation of two interconnected characters.
- The film is a collage, an essay and a documentary in tribute to an avant-garde artist and writer Vagrich Bakhchanyan. Viewers are immersed in the absurd and bitterly funny universe of the artist, as scholars and friends reflect on his life, enigma and the mystique of his connection with Kazimir Malevich's famous "Black Square" - an inception point of Russian avant-garde.
- Artist Mikhail Shemiakin photographs discarded paper, dead leaves, cigarette butts, spots of paint, cracks, traces of dog urine, plantain tree bark, and spots on the wall in nocturnal Paris, then draws with pastel and ink on matte prints of the photographs, creating a tremendous range of imagery. Thus inventing a new technique in drawing and a new and totally unexpected view of the riches hidden in the humble, ignored world under our feet. Trottoirs de Paris documents the artists method in wordless, hypnotizing narrative style, following Shemiakin through Paris, on bicycle rides in central France and walks in the woods, then back to the studio. Some of the films most arresting sequences are those that demonstrate the transformation of trash and dirt into fantastic characters and dramatic scenes.
- They poisoned the opposition candidate. But he survived. They exerted full control over the media. But one rebelled. They stole the election. And streets erupted. This is the story of the Orange Revolution in Kyiv, Ukraine.
