Synopsis

Cold Void

A short arthouse documentary about mental illness as seen through the eyes of Niklas Kvarforth of Shining. Cold Void is a personal portrayal of the man behind headlines of suicide, drugs and self-destruction. Addiction, bipolar disorder, passion and schizophrenia.

Dahomey

Thousands of royal artifacts of Dahomey, a West African kingdom, were taken by French colonists in the 19th century for collection and display in Paris. Centuries later, a fraction returned to their home in modern-day Benin. This dramatized documentary follows the journey of 26 of the treasures as told by cultural art historians, embattled university students, and one of the repatriated statues himself.
