Description

Russian premiere

Sunday is a 14-year-old girl with cognitive and physical disabilities, living in a rural area of northern Uganda. In a place where disability is seen as a stigma and “mercy killing” still persists, she inhabits a world of her own. Beneath the weight of glances that judge her as strange, uncoordinated, out of time, she does not see it. And she dances.

Description

Russian premiere

Swiss dentist Julien Grivel for 26 years (1972-1998) treating Hansenites (lepers) for free in Greece. An inner journey that helped him see the world and life differently. “By adopting the language of the Greeks, I unconsciously adopted their thinking,” he says. His friendship with Manolis Fountoulakis (ex-hansenite) was a catalyst.
