- Hegumenia Ines Ayau Garcia is the abbess of the one and only Orthodox parish in Guatemala, located on the shores of Lake Amatitlán, at an altitude of over thousand meters above sea level. At the age of 36, Sister Ines left the Catholic monastic order and converted to Orthodoxy. Today, thanks to the abbess, the monastery and the community have become a center of attraction for all people who are interested in Russian culture in Latin America. This film is a story of how one person is able to help others to find their way.
- Eight heroes of the film wake up in the morning in a sobering-up station: And each one remembers exactly how he got there.
- The documentary project by the director and cameraman Nadya Zakharova " Promenade" is a chronicle story about life of one seemingly unremarkable embankment of the Kama River in a remote area of Perm. But it is unremarkable only at a first glance. If an attentive viewer takes a closer look at what is happening here, he will be able to catch the whisper of absolutely incredible events, real life experiences and stories that city residents unwittingly entrust these stones. The key thing is to carefully observe.
- The 33-year-old Lida Moniava has the voice of a little girl and the strength that superwomen from comics would envy. In high school, she was a volunteer in the oncology department of the Russian Children's Clinical Hospital, at 19 she organized a field service for terminally ill children "House with a Lighthouse", and seven years later opened a hospice for them. Lida is its co-founder and development director. This film is one year from the life of Lida Moniava and her adopted son Kolya.
- The Caspian Sea washes the shores of five countries: Russia, Kazakhstan, Turkmenia, Iran and Azerbaijan. So the history of this largest lake in the world has always been intertwined with the history of the people living on its shores. These days, there is a ferry crossing the sea, which is the main setting for Denis Shabanov's documentary Caspian Hub. It is on this ferry that we meet our protagonists, learn their stories and dreams. The camera follows what is going on in their personal lives, their search for happiness against a backdrop of the primordial elements, combining narrative film and documentary elements to show the internal polyphony of individual human stories, with the powerful forces of nature as the backdrop. After all, it is this primordial power that contrasts so aptly with the transience of human life.
- The main character of the film is old shepherd Ramazan, he is 83 years old and he was born and raised in one of Hasankeyf's caves. Physically, he is strong, but he has Alzheimer's and he remembers almost nothing. It is through the decaying consciousness of this elderly person who repeats the same stories over and over, who confuses where the boundaries between dreams and reality lie, and who mistakenly takes strangers as old friends, as we come closer to the problem of memory loss, in both, historical and personal sense. Ramazan's fading memory reflects the tragedy of Hasankeyf's slow death; both the man and the city with their long stories are forgetting who they are. The story of Ramazan and his hometown Hasankeyf is entangled with the story of two authors, who have entered the city as tourists but stayed after a car crash and slowly emerged into its last months, becoming closer, creating personal relations with the citizens, diving deeper into the slow decay, even creating their own delusion of being able to help. Still they are outsiders.
