The North Drift

How did a German beer bottle end up on an island in the Lofoten Islands, located in the Arctic Ocean?

Following the discovery of the beer bottle, Dresden-based filmmaker Steffen Krones, along with industrial designer Paul Weiß, embarks on a journey to trace the path of plastic waste in German and international waters. We follow their journey as they document this issue.

The Power of Activism

This inspiring documentary, which embodies a true "David vs. Goliath" story, follows scientists and environmental defenders who challenge practices that contribute to climate change and are outdated in the face of current conditions.

The film tells the extraordinary life story of eco-activist Dr. Vandana Shiva, highlighting how she challenged the corporate giants of industrial agriculture, emerged as a leader in the organic food movement, and inspired an international struggle for change.
