Comedies love riffing on human shortcomings, and Chris de Krijger’s new short is no exception. Wide-angled shots of Rotterdam in summer present the bumbling Homo sapiens in all its splendour: a jogger who decides to rent a moped for the final leg of his run; a marriage proposal that goes horribly wrong; and a woman who counts her steps but abandons her husband during a walk. From a bird’s-eye view, we witness the insignificance – and ridiculousness – of the flawed Homo sapiens.

Straight out of the sewers in the south, Sørsia Gerilja established itself as something truly unique in the Trøndelag rap scene. With raw lyrics and an even rougher attitude, the group clashed with police, producers, and at times even themselves. You couldn’t ask for better breeding ground for hip-hop. But 20 years have passed, and now they are reuniting for the very first time — on stage at the Pstereo-Festival.

Inn a State of Siege tells the remarkable true story of Mustafa, Ismet, and Faruk-three ordinary men who worked at the legendary Holiday Inn hotel in Sarajevo during the city's brutal siege from 1992 to 1995, the longest siege of a capital in modern history. The battered hotel remained open and became a base for foreign journalists reporting on the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It stood perilously exposed on the notorious "Sniper Alley", the main boulevard where Bosnian Serb gunmen targeted anything that moved. Amid daily shelling and constant danger, chef Mustafa, waiter Faruk, and driver Ismet risked their lives to keep the hotel running, sustaining not only a hotel but also those around them. Thirty years later, this story explores how survival under siege shaped them, their sons, and the generations of Bosnians who inherited both the trauma and resilience of war.
