Brexit Through the Non-political Glass
Brexit Through the Non-political Glass
On 1 January 2021, the UK's transition period with the EU ended and new rules and regulations were agreed at the last minute. This is a time for reflection on the social phenomenon that is Brexit - which has now become a British trademark world-over, alongside the Royal Family, fish and chips and Sherlock Holmes. Brexit Through The Non-Political Glass puts politicians and public sentiments to one side, and seeks the opinions of non-partisan world-class experts - the scholars and professional advisors who specialize in this very topic; no politicians and propagandists, and no social media and populism; among the experts is Vernon Bogdanor, the Oxford tutor of former British prime minister David Cameron, who was consulted before the referendum was offered to the nation; you will hear what his advice was.

Mosner’s Theorem
Mosner’s Theorem
A mirror game between reality and fiction about the creative blocking of a troubled artist. Ricardo Mosner exists, but his character transcends the documentary world. We also see musician Daniel Melingo, the film’s director and co-star, transformed into a ghostly vagabond in the city. The camera captures these specters’ roaming like images of a digital canvas. There is wine, loneliness, parties and sunrises of bourgeois bohemians. The film encrypts its indomitable value in exposing how you can paint an audiovisual picture under the influence of this century’s events and variations. In the end, the film is an act of combining brushes and colors with precision in order to depict a happy reunion in exile.
