"Daro filmas stāsts sākas skaisti. Jauna sieviete un dāņu puisis T**e, kurš ieradies Damaskā apmaiņas studijās, iemīlas. Taču vidē, kurā Daro dzīvo, ar to nepietiek.
Es negribu, lai jūs domājat, ka filma ir drūma. Tā skar smagas tēmas, bet patiesībā ir dzīvi apliecinoša un brīžam pat smieklīga."
Par Daro Hansenas un Tomasa Papapetros filmu "Meklējot Daro" raksta Iveta Dzērve, Žurnāls Santa galvenā redaktore.

See What I Say | Lithuania, Italy, Ukraine
director Arturas Jevdokimovas | producer Ringailė Leščinskienė | production company Zero Copy Reel | co-producers Giusi Santoro (POPCULT), Ivanna Khitsinska (WAYA Production)
In the Deaf world, there is no universal sign language – every country has its own. But in three bars across Bologna, Vilnius, and Kyiv, people who share no common language keep trying to reach each other. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t.
Keepers of the City | Ukraine, Czechia
director, producer Ella Shtyka | production company Indie Media Polis | co-production company Safe Place production
“Keepers of the City” explores the community’s attempt to create a new vision for their city – war-torn Kharkiv. Intimate and visual documentary where a couple of stories pulse in sync with the city and its local radio broadcasts.
The Shepherd’s Son | Azerbaijan
director Nurlan Hasanli | producer Turkan Huseyn | production company Ultra Production
A nomadic shepherd’s son abandons school against his father’s wishes to follow him into his family’s traditional livelihood, as ecological collapse and the takeover of herds push shepherds into wage labor.

MEET ME AT THE GRAVEYARD | Latvia

director Vita Drygas | producer Teresa Rozanovska | production company Ketvirta Versija | co-producer Vita Żelakeviciute (Drygas Film Production)
A filmmaker disillusioned with documenting war tourism turns to the unfinished legacy of her grandfather, Vytautas Žalakevičius, seeking meaning through a cinematic dialogue across time.

Lunatics | Finland
director Saila Kivelä | producer Ida Karoskoski | production company Wacky Tie Films
