'Pulgasari': The Strange Story Behind North Korea's Godzilla
When we hear Korean Cinema, we often think of South Korean Cinema, but what about North Korea? Sure, North Korea has its propaganda moments, but 'Pulgasari' might be its best one yet.

An affectionate conversation about the life and work of one of Brazil's greatest documentarians. Vladimir Carvalho opens the doors of Cinememória to Marcia Zarur's crew. Generously, he shares every detail of the Cinema Museum: pieces and equipment carefully collected over more than half a century. These objects tell the story of cinema in Brasília, Brazil, and the world, and, above all, reflect a lifelong passion for the art of filmmaking. The short film offers a joyful and lighthearted account, which turned out to be the filmmaker's final interview. Vladimir Carvalho suffered a heart attack an hour after the team left the site and passed away two weeks later.
