Two 17-year-old Muscovite girls, Olya and Sasha, are going to Crimea to meet Olya’s father Sergey. At first girls have their fun. Little do they know that the innocent joke they invent will turn into great drama and change their lives forever.
Anna Sofie Hartmann
Germany

98 min.
Unable to deal with her teenage son, the boy's mother turns him in for a small crime. But a teenager's life cannot handle police probation. Based on true events.
Hermes Paralluelo
Spain - Colombia
98 min.
In his new film, Hermes Paralluelo tells a love story. A love story that begins when its lead characters, Antonio and Felisa, have been together for over 60 years and their delicate health means they can no longer care for one another. The prospect of having to move into a home for the elderly looms menacingly on the horizon. The film portrays love in old age, nights of fitful sleep over the worry of loneliness, death and separation from a loved-one. Fear of leaving life in the hands of others and of losing independence.
Germán Tejeira
Uruguay - Argentina
80 min.
On New Year's night, three lonely night owls arrive in a small town way out in the Uruguayan countryside, where they will have the opportunity to change their destiny. A film about love, loneliness, opportunities and the passing of time.
Roberto Castón
Spain
91 min.
Second feature by Roberto Castón, whose movie Ander competed in the Panorama Section at Berlin in 2009. Mario, Paula, Miguel and Lourdes run into one another while looking (some more than others) for a way out of a life they don't like. The situation forces them to make decisions, listening either to their hearts or to the fear of change. They are accompanied in the process by the film's director, played by Roberto Álamo.
Alexander Nanau
Romania
93 min.
From Emmy-Award winning director Alexander Nanau comes an amazing family love story. Totonel (10) and his sisters are growing up in a poor city suburb, waiting for their mother to come home from prison.
