However, despite facing a similar situation herself, Ruirui's emotions are consistently ignored by her mother. Later, in a moment of desperation, Ruirui takes her brother's headphones, only to be met with an unjustified scolding from her mother.

Past the Cyrcle

Past the Cyrcle

2026 • 25 min • Italy
Loosely Based on the tragedy of Doctor Faustus. In Past the Cyrcle, the Faustian myth is reinterpreted through the tragic ordeal of Jorio F., a young post-punk musician torn between the sting of remorse and the burning hatred. Fragmented by his past and drained by an all-consuming desire to create, Jorio encounters a strange, nameless figure – an ambiguous and inscrutable being – with whom he seems to strike a pact destined to transform his art and his life forever. Through a dark, arcane and feverish understanding of music, Jorio achieves a new and unsettling creativity, yet what appears to be a revelation soon becomes a form of possession. While its narrative draws primarily from the Faustian literary tradition—especially Thomas Mann’s Doctor Faustus—its staging embraces an earlier theatrical lineage. The visual language, the stylised performances, and the overall mise-en-scène are deeply indebted to Christopher Marlowe’s Doctor Faustus, to the broader context of the Elizabethan theatre, and to the Commedia Dell’Arte tradition. Rather than pursuing psychological realism, the film adopts a deliberately theatrical approach, where gesture, rhythm, archetypal figures and symbolic space become expressive tools in themselves. Inspired by the Faustian tradition and, in particular, by Thomas Mann’s Doctor Faustus, Past the Cyrcle tells the story of the relationship between genius, guilt and self-destruction, immersing the audience in a universe suspended between reality, distorted memories and intrusive thoughts. Music becomes an epistemological device, employed to force the laws of the universe and of dimensions.

The Blade Archive

The Blade Archive

2026 • 45 min • Türkiye
The documentary "The Blade Archive" follows the story of bicaksanati.com, a forum that became a turning point in the development of knife making in Türkiye. What began as an empty digital space created by a small group of enthusiasts gradually evolved into a vast archive where masters, apprentices, collectors, and hobby makers came together. The film approaches the knife not as an object of violence, but as a vessel of labor, technical knowledge, aesthetics, memory, and a culture of sharing. Through the testimonies of forum members, it reveals how a craft can be reconstructed in the digital age and how collective knowledge can become a lasting legacy.
