Blueberry Dreams
A warm and understatedly humourous film about a Georgian family's project to start a blueberry farm in an area where old conflicts rumble underground. A young film from the old world, where the family's two sons dream of a different future.

Bye Bye Tiberias
Four generations of Palestinian women give vivid and moving accounts of their relationship with their homeland, their hometown of Tiberias, and the resistance that has been passed down from mother to daughter.
