The protagonist of Dajori (mother in Romani) is forty-five-year-old Marie Hučková, who lives with her husband in Varnsdorf. After her younger sister Iveta ends up on the streets with her nine children, she decides to take her own fate and theirs firmly into her own hands and attempts to break out of the vicious circle of poverty that characterises their hometown. This sensitive film, which captures three years of a newly formed family's life together, follows the small joys and daily challenges of caring for others and asks whether a mother's love can overcome the dysfunctional system in which socially excluded localities find themselves.

Missed Lives – The Dom People documents the everyday life of Dom, Abdal and Romani families in Antakya, Türkiye. Without a script or staging, the film follows their struggles with deep poverty, social exclusion, and discrimination. Starting as a photography project, it evolved into a documentary that was interrupted by the devastating 2023 earthquake. Many of the recorded materials were lost, yet with rescued footage and new filming after the disaster, the work continued. The result is a deeply personal and collective testimony about survival, erased cultural memory, and increasing rights violations against one of Türkiye’s most marginalized communities.

The film captures an extraordinary encounter between Toby Gorniak MBE, a Roma activist and refugee who fled Poland in the early 1990s after attacks by neo-Nazi skinheads, and Mirek, a former neo-Nazi and football, now born-again Christian. Their conversation explores the roots of hate, its consequences, and the fragile possibilities of reconciliation. While rooted in Toby’s lived experience of persecution and resilience, the film also traces Mirek’s transformation from a life of hate and violence to becoming an advocate against extremism. His testimony provides unique insights into the psychology of extremism and the potential for redemption. By bringing together victims and former oppressor, the film examines the healing potential of restorative justice in cases of hate crimes and violent racism. Through raw storytelling and compelling testimonies, the film reveals how personal transformation, and honest dialogue can become powerful tools for fostering understanding and challenging hatred.

A documentary film that reflects on the fragmented history of a community and its cultural survival. Through intimate testimonies,
archival footage, and present-day narratives, the film portrays a story of five generations that built and carried traditions yet were often left without support to continue. It is a protest-like journey: a house without a roof, a sea without water, a history still incomplete.
