In spring 2017, authorities in China’s Xinjiang region, without any legal basis, began detaining thousands of Uyghurs, Kazakhs and other predominantly Muslim minorities in so-called re-education camps. This animated 360° film reconstructs the memories of three men who had to endure political indoctrination, torture and solitary confinement.

Having a child is a heavy new responsibility. When Ethan Barrett becomes a stay-at-home dad and suddenly finds himself in charge of the welfare of his little daughter, he realises abruptly that his every action will influence her life – whether he wants it or not. Charming, ironical and witty, he explores how to be least in the way of her perfect development. The next little masterpiece of tongue-in-cheek humour after “Burp” (DOK Leipzig 2020).

This critical analysis of the final report of the Warren Commission, who investigated the assassination of John F. Kennedy, is based on research by lawyer Mark Lane. Lane co-authored this film and published his eponymous book at almost the same time. De Antonio had studied with Kennedy at Harvard, which gave his film a personal dimension, despite his political distance to Kennedy. This may account for the argumentative, occasionally factual rigour that he and his editor Dan Drasin brought to the film. Ultimately, “Rush to Judgment” is a piece of belated legal assistance for Lee Harvey Oswald, who was declared to have acted alone and shot only two days after the assassination while in police custody, and whose legal interests were not adequately represented before the Warren Commission.
