Cankar poster
NR

Ivan Cankar experienced many things only after he has written about them. In the film, this link between his writing and his private life is depicted by live-action and animated scenes that draw exclusively on the writer’s works and letters to his loved ones. For an entire decade, he lived with the Löffler family in Vienna, where he wrote most of his impressive oeuvre. First, he grew very close to the lady of the house, then to her adolescent daughter Steffi. Back in Ljubljana, he got involved with several girls there, an attentive lover of a cheerful nature, accessible and highly intelligent. His popular public lectures reveal him as a passionate social democrat.

Stealing Land poster
8.7

In "Stealing the land", parents fight not only for a better future for their children, but also for their own egos. When a schoolyard game sparks a political debate in the kitchen, an evening of absurd conflicts, low blows and unexpected confrontations begins. The film unrestrainedly provokes, entertains and exposes the grotesqueness of a society where the lines between play, education and the real world become dangerously blurred and the rules increasingly confusing - for children and adults alike.
