Descriptions  

The Oligarch and the Art Dealer – Andreas Dalsgaard, 118’, 2026, Denmark, France, U.S.  

A gripping documentary that explores one of the most talked-about and mysterious cases to ever shake the art world: the fierce dispute between Swiss art dealer Yves Bouvier and Russian oligarch Dmitry Rybolovlev, which was sparked by allegations of a one-billion-dollar fraud. 

Still Pushing Pineapples – Kim Hopkins 92′, 2025, U.K., Scotland 

Entertainment, working-class culture, human relationships, pop music, and contemporary British reality intertwine in an entertaining, subversive road movie that follows a has-been pop star in his attempt to revive and keep alive his former glory.
