Killing Hope
Synopsis
Twenty-four-year-old Al-Basha is not just a simple Syrian citizen. In the middle of Aleppo destroyed by civil war, his only weapon is his red nose and the smiles of the children surrounding him: he is the last clown of Aleppo and he will give his life trying to brighten the lives of the unfortunate children orphaned by the conflict.

Butterfly, by Florence Miailhe
A man swims in the sea. This brings back memories. They are all connected to water, from his early childhood to his adult life. This will be the story of his last swim.
🦋 'Butterfly' won the Crystal Bear Young People's Jury at the Berlinale and was selected for the Official Competition at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, where it received the André Martin Prize.
