After the freak rupture of her aorta, a condition that normally leads to death in minutes, Ingi Doyle and her partner Scott embark on a desperate search for answers. DISSECTION, the Witness Statement of Ingi Doyle, is a confronting documentary, minimalist and naked in style. Recounting survival against the odds, with medical teams doing everything possible to keep her alive, Ingi and Scott's journey becomes entwined with that of immunologist Professor Nikolai Petrovsky. Stripped back to the absolute essentials, with the interviewees in command of the screen, DISSECTION boldly pioneers a new 'nothing hidden' approach to documentary making.

How do you hold on to hope in times of violence and oppression? For visual artist Mounira Al Solh, born in Lebanon and based in the Netherlands, making art is her lifeline: a way to ‘resist the feeling that we are doomed.’ Remarkably, this does not result in somber work. Dancing on the Ruins shows how Al Solh fearlessly builds a multifaceted and playfully activist body of work. Through textiles, ceramics, installations, video and paintings, the artist creates a colorful universe in which she blends personal stories with ancient myths and musical traditions. Her passion is fueled by a deep sense of urgency to offer optimism in a world full of injustice.
