Chantal Seasons 1&2
(French) In the off-beat Belgian mystery series Chantal, Inspector Chantal Vantomme has just been assigned to take charge of the local police station in the small rural town of Loveringem, starting a new life there as a single mother with her ten-year-old daughter Emma. People in this Belgian "Wild West" are used to taking matters into their own hands, but the apparent tranquility of this distant corner of Flanders shouldn't deceive anyone. Under the surface of the town's smiling faces lurk seedy secrets and plenty of unexpected mystery. Additionally, Chantal immediately gets off on the wrong foot with Inspector Cloedt, her chauvinistic second-in-command and the self-described "Sheriff of Loveringem". But Chantal can hold her own against any man and she has big plans: to take the Chief Commissioner's entrance exam and move to back to the big city as soon as possible. But life, as is often the case, has plans of its own... To Chantal's surprise, she grows to love this remote village with its old-fashioned customs, its old-fashioned inhabitants and exciting and bizarre crimes to solve.

When Lightning Flashes Over the Sea
(Russian) Set in the Ukrainian port city of Odesa, this film traces the lives of ordinary people whose memories, dreams, and resilience illuminate a city scarred by absence and destruction. From day labourers on the Black Sea to a boy dreaming of chocolate cake, from refugees and widows to survivors and wanderers, their stories reveal a poetic, deeply human portrait of a place where everyday life persists against the backdrop of war.
