Would people be who they seem to be without those snippets of the past that tell them who they are, or could they create themselves from scratch time and again? Our bodies also have a memory of sorts, but can they really function independently from our minds? And what if there was a technology that enabled injecting a body with someone else\u2019s memories? In the near future, in 2030\u2019s China, two assassins, Ge and Song, use their time to kill various targets sent to them by a mysterious organization. Ge, however, has not been himself lately. At night he is tormented by surreal nightmares, at day he experiences dreamlike visions \u2013 to the extent that he begins to question his identity. Could he be a product of the latest technology that had eliminated Alzheimer by allowing people to enter others\u2019 minds? Quite unexpectedly, during one of his assignments, Ge sees a photo of his victim and\u2026 himself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Original title: <\/strong>Ji Yi Qiu Long<br \/>\n <strong>Director: <\/strong>Zhang Chi<br \/>\n <strong>Cinematographer: <\/strong>Yi Fang<br \/>\n <strong>Produced by: <\/strong>Ning Bo Holy High Film Task Group<br \/>\n <strong>Country and year: <\/strong>China, 2021<\/p>\n<div>\u00a0\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span><strong><span style=\"color: #d29600;\">BACK TO THE WHARF<\/span><br \/>\n <\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_backtothewharf_still_1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_backtothewharf_still_1-1024x530.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-28917\" width=\"1024\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_backtothewharf_still_1-1024x530.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_backtothewharf_still_1-300x155.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_backtothewharf_still_1-768x398.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_backtothewharf_still_1-440x228.jpg 440w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_backtothewharf_still_1.jpg 1452w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div>The year is 2007, the previous two decades were marked by China\u2019s large-scale modernisation that had made the country a global player with countless nameless victims swept under the rug in the process.

Nine-year-old Andrey often wanders around the local wilderness, combing the rocky beaches and seaside caves in search of various objects to fill his spacious imagination with ideas that can quench his sense of desperate loneliness. The distant man whom he learned to call his dad is a drunk and does not feel any parental responsibility towards a boy he had fathered. Andrey\u2019s mother has problems with herself and is furious at the world for giving her another mouth to feed \u2013 she even considers sending the boy to a boarding school as far away from her and her problems as possible. Despite all these hardships, despite being aware that the world does not need nor want him, Andrey does not intend to give up. He is a survivor. The empty bottles found near the sea can be exchanged for a few dozen Russian roubles. The boy\u2019s older female friend, though already taken, has such a pretty face that just being near her is a reward in itself. And the stray dog found near the shore can be many things in Andrey\u2019s vivid imagination.<em><br \/>\n <\/em><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Director: <\/strong>Grigory Kolomytsev<br \/>\n <strong>Cinematographer: <\/strong>Alexey Venzos<br \/>\n <strong>Produced by: <\/strong>Production Center VGIK-Debut<br \/>\n <strong>Country and year: <\/strong>Russia, 2020<\/p>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span><strong><span style=\"color: #d29600;\">NO MAN OF GOD<\/span><br \/>\n <\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n<div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_nmog_r4_709_hd_lt_cc01mov04_04_58_22still001.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_nmog_r4_709_hd_lt_cc01mov04_04_58_22still001-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-28914\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_nmog_r4_709_hd_lt_cc01mov04_04_58_22still001-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_nmog_r4_709_hd_lt_cc01mov04_04_58_22still001-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_nmog_r4_709_hd_lt_cc01mov04_04_58_22still001-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_nmog_r4_709_hd_lt_cc01mov04_04_58_22still001-405x228.jpg 405w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_nmog_r4_709_hd_lt_cc01mov04_04_58_22still001.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>It is mid-1980s. Bill Hagmaier, young, emphathetic, freshly appointed FBI profiler, begins an assignment that will radically change everything he was, is and will ever be. Trying to comprehend the driving force behind the killing spree of Ted Bundy, one of the most notorious serial killers of the 20th century who is currently awaiting the death penalty, Hagmaier starts talking to the man. One thing that makes him different from other more experienced agents who have tried to interrogate Bundy is that Bill does not try to control, dominate or intimidate the criminal. He wishes to understand him and treat the serial killer as an equal and in this way prepare himself for chasing others of his kind. What is more, he somehow connects to the man, and were it not for the reason of their meetings, their relationship could be even called friendly. The conversations between the good agent and the evil murderer do bring some answers, but at the same time leave several disturbing questions. Like, could Bundy have been a great profiler given different circumstances and Hagmaier a brutal serial killer himself?<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong>Polish title: <\/strong>Z\u0142o wcielone<br \/>\n <strong>Director: <\/strong>Amber Sealey<br \/>\n <strong>Cinematographer: <\/strong>Karina Silva<br \/>\n <strong>Produced by: <\/strong>Company X<br \/>\n <strong>Polish distributor:<\/strong> Media4Fun<br \/>\n <strong>Country and year: <\/strong>USA, 2020<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span><strong><span style=\"color: #d29600;\">NORTH HOLLYWOOD<\/span><br \/>\n <\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_north_hollywood_3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_north_hollywood_3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-28913\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_north_hollywood_3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_north_hollywood_3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_north_hollywood_3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_north_hollywood_3-405x228.jpg 405w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_north_hollywood_3.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div>Friendship is one of the most important factors that shape the still fluid and chaotic identity of a young adult. Friends in whom a teenager can confide, whom he can trust, have far greater impact on their life than even the best and most understanding parents. Michael, who is standing precariously on the verge of adulthood, is very lucky to have Jay and Adolf on his side, he knows that he would not be the same person without them. Not because his friends do not lecture him on how to move the shower curtain inside the shower to stop the water from flooding the floor, but simply because around them Michael feels as if he could do anything. They are altar boys, they piss off the security guards from the nearest mall, they have fun. But youth has to fizzle out sometime and make room for the painful adulthood. Michael has a choice: he can go to college and study something that he has no interest in, or start working with his father, a construction worker. Both options seem miserable, but \u2013 life will not wait for those who lag behind.<\/p>\n<p> <strong>Polish title: <\/strong>M\u0142odo\u015b\u0107 w North Hollywood<br \/>\n <strong>Director: <\/strong>Mikey Alfred<br \/>\n <strong>Cinematographer: <\/strong>Ayinde Anderson<br \/>\n <strong>Produced by: <\/strong>Illegal Civ<br \/>\n <strong>Country and year: <\/strong>USA, 2021<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span><strong><span style=\"color: #d29600;\">SON OF MONARCHS<\/span><br \/>\n <\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_som_16-9_energacamerimage_5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_som_16-9_energacamerimage_5-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-28912\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_som_16-9_energacamerimage_5-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_som_16-9_energacamerimage_5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_som_16-9_energacamerimage_5-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_som_16-9_energacamerimage_5-405x228.jpg 405w, https:\/\/archive.camerimage.pl\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_som_16-9_energacamerimage_5.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div>Mendel was born and raised in Mexico; it is there that he grew up physically and matured emotionally, it is there that he experienced most of his first times and fell in love with the natural world, especially the ephemeral beauty and fascinating habits of the monarch butterflies.
