The Beggars in Addis Ababa (45 min, Denmark)
A short documentary about extreme poverty in Ethiopia, where drought and climate change make people struggle for survival. Food shortages lead two women, Zemu and Belay, to leave their small village with their children and travel to Addis Ababa to beg. The family left behind is supported by the money Zemu and Belay make as beggars. When the women return, Zemu hears rumors that her husband has donated some of her pots to another women. (Jakob Gottschau, 2007)
Shadow of the Salmon (44 min, USA)
The story of a young man from the Lakota Nation who visits his Pacific Northwest Coastal Salish relatives. During his visit he discovers many things, witnesses the annual Canoe Journey and helps respond to an environmental crisis. Shot on location throughout the Pacific Northwest. (Michael Pearce, 2007)
Lilliputi Mimikri (30 min, Hungary)
Of all marine creatures the smallest are the hardest to film. Due to their size and their amazing ability to hide, they are almost invisible to the human eye. By applying special camera techniques and using the help of experienced critter hunters, these sea critters are at last brought to the screen! Underwater cameraman and wildlife-filmmaker Dvid Attila Molnr gives an amazing introduction into the hidden world of marine liliputians. While underwater, he talks live to a group of schoolchildren listening outside. Special sound and visual effects, animations and fantastic wildlife stories. A joyful, happy documentary suitable for every age! (Dvid Attila Molnr, 2007)
