    When the Taliban puts a bounty on Afghan director Hassan Fazili's head, he is forced to

     NOS DÉFAITES
     (OUR DEFEATS)
     A FILM BY JEAN-GABRIEL PÉRIOT

     Nowadays in France, a group of teenagers reenact iconic films from the 1968’s era. While
     barely able to define neither political commitment nor the idea of revolution at first, they
     gradually realize that the perspectives from the past still echoe on our present politics and
     that within our defeats may rise the strength to face today’s chaos and its challenges.

    With: Adam Bakri, Rachael Blake, Abbey Azziz

    Ricky is a young Arab Australian whose peaceful suburban
    life is turned on its head when his sister, Ameena, disappears
    without trace. In a climate of distrust and xenophobia, she is
    soon suspected of having joined the ranks of ISIS in Syria. In
    a “post-facts” world, Ricky no longer knows who to believe,
    his sense of what’s right or the 24 hour media cycle of spin.

     HOUSE OF CARDIN
     BY P. DAVID EBERSOLE & TODD HUGHES
     Millions know the iconic logo and ubiquitous signature but few know the
     man behind the larger than life label. Ultimately we seek to answer the
     question: Who is Pierre Cardin? What is the story behind this legendary
     icon? House of Cardin is a rare peek into the mind of a genius, an authorized
     feature documentary chronicling the life and design of Pierre Cardin. A
     true original, Mr. Cardin has granted the directors the exclusive access to
     his archives and his empire and promises unprecedented interviews at the
     sunset of a glorious career.
