In her video diary the Ukrainian director Hanna Trofimova takes us into her life, in the midst of war. She shows images of fear and tells about the guilt she feels, leaving her homeland behind. We met her for an interview about her film “When will the Winter of 2022 end ?“
Every year the DOK Spotters start the festival week with an interview with the director. This year Christoph Terhechte told us what is special about his second year at the festival, what he does during the week and which films we cannot miss at the 64th edition of DOK Leipzig.
We met Leena Pasanen – the director of the DOK Festival to talk about her filled time schedule and her love for documentaries and animations.
Jasmila Zbanić, director of the film “One Day in Sarajevo”, talked to us about the history of Bosnia, nationalistic movements, her time as a jury member and of course – about her film.
The DOK Spotters talked to Kim Busch, who curated the Special Programme. In this Interview she tells us what the topics Body and New Media have in common and describes her image of the perfect body. But does that really exist?
