 Director: Anne Sewitsky
 Country: Norway
 Runtime: 1 hour, 28 minutes




 Family is the most important thing in the world to Kaja. She is an eternal optimist in spite of living with a man who would rather go hunting with the boys, and who refuses to have sex with her because she isn't particularly attractive anymore. Whatever. That's life. But when the perfect couple moves in next door, Kaja struggles to keep her emotions in check. Not only do these successful, beautiful, exciting people sing in a choir; they have also adopted a child - from Ethiopia. These new neighbors open a new world to Kaja, with consequences for everyone involved. And when Christmas comes around, it becomes evident that nothing will ever be like before - even if Kaja tries her very best.

Director: Saulius Drunga
Country: Lithuania
Runtime: 1 hour 28 minutes





 A young provincial girl, Vile, moves to the city with great expectations about a higher education. She rents an apartment in which she notices a hand-made sticker with anarchy symbols on it, and she meets her landlord, Sandra, a boyish looking girl always wearing a t-shirt with anarchy symbols. The two girls get along so well that since her very first day in the city vile finds a perfect guide in the strong and optimistic Sandra. Under Sandras anarchist philosophy and way of life, vile gets rid of her provincial shyness and fears until she incidentally meets a member of the citys punk community who will change her mind and make her realize that Sandras anarchy has nothing to do with alternative underground culture or politics.
