22.01.2022 Watch ‘My Name Is Janez Janša' now on our streaming site! >> https://bit.ly/33oMZXz A proper name is a word that answers the purpose of showing what thing it is that we are talking about but not of telling anything about it. John Stuart Mill in A System of Logic... A name. Everybody has one. Individuals, artists and academics from all over the world share their thoughts about the meaning and purpose of one’s name from both private and public perspectives. The problem of homonymy and other reasons for changing one’s name are explored as the film draws references from history, popular culture and individual experiences, leading us to the case of a name change that caused a stir in the small country of Slovenia and beyond. In 2007 three artists joined the conservative Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS) and officially changed their names to that of the leader of that party, the Prime Minister of Slovenia, Janez Janša. While they renamed themselves for personal reasons, the boundaries between their lives and their art began to merge in numerous and unforeseen ways. Signified as an artistic gesture, this particular name change provoked a wide range of interpretations in art circles both in Slovenia and abroad, as well as among journalists and the general public.

10.01.2022 Watch ‘Curanderismo' now on our streaming site! >> https://bit.ly/3htxdzt This is a film set in Iquitos, Peru and centres around 4 people whose lives have been dedicated to working with the ancient shamanic medicine, Ayahuasca. It came about after I began to notice people turning to plant and alternative medicines to help with various health issues they were having in their lives. What was even more interesting that it was people from all walks of life that seemed to be embra...cing it and it transcended the stereotype that one might associate with such a world. That inspired me to make this film. I knew that there was something here that was actually making a difference to people's lives. And that the traditional medicines in the west were failing in some respect. So this film is a journey to the heart of this world, to a remote place in the Amazonian jungle only accessible by boat or plane. My goal was to find out about its history from those that are from it and learn about what it is to be a shaman in Peru. All the characters are distinctly different and give you a rounded insight into what is happening there. It is by no means a comprehensive study, but I think there is enough here to inform and inspire those who are curious about an ever increasingly popular way of life.
