Just because you didn’t film me while I was crying it doesn’t mean you’re not a filmmaker.

A documentary filmmaker with moral issues and creative block is crying behind the camera. A unique meeting between the participant and the filmmaker takes place and questions arise. The documentary is about films’ way of profiting on other people’s feelings. About human value and about forgiving oneself when things are not going so well.

The Spyglass

Ten-year-old Eden feels forgotten by and invisible to her parents, who often quarrel or are busy with other things.

Eden has constructed a spyglass, using two empty toilet paper rolls, which she soon understands is magical.
