A documentary about the prominent Macedonian artist Vladimir Georgievski (1942-2017). In his studio, located at the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture in Skopje, surrounded by his numerous works, he talks about the inspiration he received from the Spanish writer Cervantes. Georgievski talks about the portraits he painted of important people in his life. His work, the portrait of Dostoevsky, is on display at the F.M. Dostoevsky Museum in St. Petersburg. Meanwhile, the portrait of Don Quixote has great meaning and symbolism for the author.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie comes on the heels of its billion-dollar grossing predecessor, and seeks to do absolutely nothing other than repeat its success. In this, the film is eminently effective. If you have seen the previous film, you can expect something extremely similar in this package. That is, a barrage of references to Nintendo intellectual property wrapped in a plot that provides the thinnest layer of emotional payoff for the characters.
