Ballet, Sweat and Tears. 2013.

Ballet, Sweat and Tears. 2013.
 The painful journey from young hopeful to prima ballerina.
Every mother bringing her child to the Academy believes she will be an accomplished ballet dancer. You've raised your child and gone through all the trouble to hand her over, but at best she's going to dance at the back row of Corps de Ballet. Mothers wince when they hear that. Ballerinas are very graceful when they step, but that makes them very miserable because of the pain they suffer from. Sacrifices have to be made. Training is a very stressful experience. Exams and rehearsals are a never ending process. Evaluations are stressful as well. The child is nervous because she doesn't know if her performance is good enough to be accepted. If she is turned down her self-esteem suffers. You have to be very strong mentally and physically to face up to the challenge. If you are turned down, you don't need to give up on everything. There are many up and coming dancers in the theater. Everybody is given the opportunity to dance, but sometimes some of them have plenty of work.
Director: Alexander Avilov.

Dance of the Little Swans. 2016.

Dance of the Little Swans. 2016.

Thousands of dancers apply every year for admittance into the Vaganova Ballet Academy but only a few make it in because it’s difficult and it’s gruesome. But then again, nobody expects the life of a ballet dancer to be easy. They are placed on a strict diet for life and they spend long hours practicing and training from a very young age.  Basically, those who decide to follow that road, have to give up parts of their childhood.
Many young girls dream of becoming ballerinas, but very few are fully prepared to undertake the all-out effort and make the sacrifices that the dream demands. The famous Vaganova Ballet Academy in St.Petersburg welcomes the most talented and determined young dancers, but it makes them no promises.

Fortellingen utspiller seg på et småsted i Sverige under annen verdenskrig, og handler om en gutt som blir kjent med tre piker omtrent på hans egen alder. En dag oppdager han at et ungt par sniker seg inn i et gammelt og falleferdig badehus, og han bestemmer seg for å fortelle de nye vennene sine om dette. Da ungene kommer frem til badehuset, foreslår den eldste piken at de skal stenge paret inne og true dem med at de ikke slipper ut før de «gjør det» og lar ungene se på fra utsiden.
EN. Set in the WWII era, the story tells of a boy in a small village who befriends three girls around his age. One day he discovers a young couple sneaking into an old and cracked bathing shack and decides to alert his new friends. When the kids join up at the shack, the eldest girl comes up with the idea to lock the couple inside, threatening not to let them out until they "do it" and allow the kids to watch from the outside. And so begins the psychological warfare...

Recommendation for Mercy / Teenage Psycho Killer. 1975.

Recommendation for Mercy / Teenage Psycho Killer. 1975.
Canadian writer/director Murray Markowitz based his film Recommendation for Mercy on a true story. Andrew Skidd plays a teenaged boy accused of raping and murdering a young girl. The flimsy evidence is offered by three of Skidd's buddies and by one of the friends of the dead girl. The boy is strongarmed and drugged by the police who hope to extract a confession. Despite the civil-liberty outrages inflicted upon Skidd, he is found guilty. Recommendation for Mercy does not ask us to forgive the boy his alleged crimes; rather, it is a plea for a reassessment of the treatment afforded Canadian juvenile offenders.
Director: Murray Markowitz.
Cast: Andrew Skidd, Robb Judd, Mike Upmalis, Karen Martin, Michelle Fansett, James Millington, Barry Belchamber, Tom Brennan, Henry Cohen, William K. Koski, Michael Lambert.

 Patnáctiletá Jana má strávit část prázdnin na letním táboře, na který se jí ale vůbec nechce, protože se poprvé zamilovala do hezkého Jindry. Je úplně jiný než kluci od nich ze třídy a moc si s ním rozumí. Jenže rodiče odjíždějí se zájezdem k moři, a tak dívka musí nakonec odjet. Soutěže ji nebaví, hlídku má v dešti, pak si sedne do mraveniště a ještě svému družstvu znemožní vyhrát. S vedoucím a ostatními dětmi odmítá spolupracovat. Protože jí Jindra nepíše a je z toho stále víc nešťastná, tak se pokusí o útěk. Využije příležitost k seznámení s místním chlapcem s motorkou a přemluví ho, aby ji odvezl na autobus domů. Jenže jsou zastaveni a kontrolováni policistou a Jana se musí jen v plavkách potupně vrátit do tábora. Cestou v lijáku nastydne, a když ji vedoucí tábora Viky najde, má horečku. Na několik dní skončí na marodce a obává se, že ji pošlou domů. Dostává však poslední šanci - může zůstat na táboře. A tak všechno nakonec dopadlo úplně jinak, než si naplánovala.

Floodhouse. 2003.

Дом на воде / Floodhouse. 2003.
 Two girls are sent to live in the Australian bush with their hippy father. As they gradually bond, a stranger arrives from a town called Paradise.
Young Mara (Victoria Thaine) leaves behind the city and life living with her grandmother, and heads to a remote shack on the edge of a river, where she is to begin a new life with her father (Robert Menzies) and her younger sister. Mara's father is a bit of an odd man; one of his first sentences to her after her arrival is to warn her that sitting in such a fashion as she is will give her a chill in her vagina. Indeed.
Aside from Mara's father, her little sister, who is somewhat there as comic relief, knows far too many four letter words for someone her age, and her mother (Catherine McClements), who lives elsewhere, but who Mara visits, walks around without any top on.
Director: Miro Bilbrough.

Las tumbas / The Tombs. 1991.


Las tumbas / The Tombs. 1991.
 "El Pollo," a 13-year-old child in reform school, witnesses and experiences the brutalization of the guards and the other inmates.
A beautiful, poetic movie regarding the tormented existence of young inmates in Argentinian's juvenile jails, more or less during dictatorship rule. The young "pollo" escapes from one male-directed prison only to be recaptured and sent to another one, led by women. In spite of the warden's ferocity and sadism, he manages to tie a relationship with the only female that seems to care for the kids, who is eventually discovered and punished. The film discloses the rueful sadic behaviour of adults, priests included, against the stray cats, and the magic of human relationships that mild in these desperate situations. Though it seems that from Argentina we only get movies about fascist and concentration-camp like prisons, of course this reflects the dramatic recent history. A praise for the little actors, especially the one playing "Lupini" is great.

EN. A teenager, Christina, loses her friends in the forest. Looking for them she finds the bodies of three drowned kids on the shore of a lagoon. On summer holiday, deep in the woods, three kids, cousins, are playing around a lake when they find a drowned young woman drifting in the water. Games, lies and rituals unfolding into a circular time in which death loses its ultimacy. What is real and what is a mirage? Who is dreaming and who is being dreamed?

Ακροβάτες του κήπου / Akrovates tou kipou / The Cistern. 2001.

Ακροβάτες του κήπου / Akrovates tou kipou / The Cistern. 2001.
 GR. Μια παρέα αγοριών στην Ελευσίνα του 1974, που αποκαλούνται "Ακροβάτες" περνούν το χρόνο τους παίζοντας, αλλά αγνοούν ότι η ανεμελειά τους θα τελειώσει το συγκεκριμένο καλοκαίρι και θα ξεκινήσει η βίαιη γνωριμία τους με τον κόσμο των ενήλικων.
EN. In 1974, a group of 11-year-old boys spend the last carefree summer of their childhood, unaware that the world of grown-ups, with its loves, passions, prejudices and curses, is about to seal their fate. Aaron, Stelios, Sakis, Galanos and Verios, "the acrobats", are best friends. School has closed for the summer holidays and the children spend their time playing games, running errands, and riding their bikes. Life is a game, into which they channel all their physical energy and imagination. They practice their diving abilities in a big cistern. It is a game through which their special talents and competitive spirit unfold. One is good at balancing acts, another at diving and another at somersaults. It is in this neighborhood that Aaron will spend the most important summer of his life: a rite of passage from childhood to adolescence, a time for learning about love, jealousy and friendship.
Director: Christos Dimas.
