Croatia in Dub is a documentary that follows an unlikely musical encounter between centuries-old Croatian folk traditions and contemporary electronic sound. Italian producer and multi-instrumentalist Lo.Renzo travels to Zagreb driven by a curiosity that soon becomes an artistic obsession: can ancient voices survive inside modern rhythms without losing their soul? Working alongside the vocal ensemble Čipkice and bagpipe player Dominik Kunić, he begins a process of listening, learning, and unlearning. Rehearsal rooms turn into laboratories where traditional melodies, once carried through villages and rituals, meet synthesizers, bass lines, and dub textures. The film observes not only the creative process but also the questions that arise: where does inspiration end and appropriation begin? What connects oral traditions shaped over centuries with electronic music built from loops and repetition? And why is merging them far more difficult than it first appears? Through conversations, performances, and moments of doubt and discovery, Croatia in Dub reveals music as a living language constantly reshaped by those who dare to reinterpret it. The documentary becomes a journey from cultural distance toward genuine appreciation, showing how collaboration can transform heritage into a shared, contemporary experience, inviting audiences to listen differently and rediscover tradition through change together again.

THE POWERFUL BEAT OF THE SOGLIOLA is a film about the dignity of memory, a fierce critique of the consumerism of emotions and objects; it is a hymn to everything that, beneath a dented bodywork, still finds the strength to cry out its own existence. The world moves at a frantic pace; the watchword is "replace". As the product of a culture that discards whatever is no longer high-performing, society decides behind closed doors who is now too old to exist, or which objects must be thrown away. The parallel is ruthless: the elderly man and Blanca, the old Fiat 126 Bis, suffer the exact same fate. They are switched off, sidelined, and stripped of their purpose because they are deemed obsolete, even though both still function beautifully. This is the shared destiny of human beings and objects in the era of planned obsolescence, where "still working" is no longer enough if one bears the guilt of being old. The film portrays all the dignity, nostalgia, and silent rage of those who are scrapped by a society that refuses to listen. The language constantly operates on a dual track: the human one (old age, feeling useless, "smelling of the elderly") and the mechanical one (dented bodywork, rust, sensors, batteries). It is a poignant metaphor for old age, the planned obsolescence of feelings, and the beauty of imperfect things that, beneath the rust, still safeguard a soul capable of screaming.

The documentary intertwines stories and testimonies from the Basilicata region, from the towns of San Martino d'Agri, Tito, Picerno, and Terranova di Pollino, reconstructing the deep bond between inhabitants and water, the source of life, work, and identity. From the mill and the fulling mill, once the driving forces of an economy based on water power, to the vegetable gardens still irrigated today by the river's canals, the story unfolds as a choral narrative in which past and present dialogue. It begins with the commitment of a cultural association which, faced with depopulation, reacts with participatory actions aimed at enhancing the valley of the mills and promoting slow tourism. Then emerge the stories of a set designer who reconstructs the fulling mill by collecting the memories of the elderly, and of a mountain guide who builds a model mill to save knowledge and stories from oblivion. Finally, the common thread of water accompanies the community of market gardeners, guardians of a living relationship with the river. Thus, memory becomes action and heritage is transformed into a resource of identity, embodying the spirit of the Faro Convention.

When a bickering couple breaks down on a remote highway, their already-tense relationship is hijacked by White Hat, an overzealous Good Samaritan whose “western hospitality” is as relentless as it is unhelpful.

But as White Hat’s folksy meddling unexpectedly nudges them toward honesty, he eventually rides off in search of new souls to “help,” leaving behind a shaken but newly reconnected pair. A comedic ode to prairie hospitality, White Hat blends awkward generosity, relationship chaos, and heartfelt absurdity into a charming roadside encounter that proves sometimes the strangest detours lead somewhere good.
