Terry Pratchett: Back in Black
A poignant and humorous film telling the life story of the hugely popular author of the discworld series of books, in his own words.
Spaces
Aged around 20, Simon has a brain tumour that is gradually destroying his memory and has condemned him to live in the immediate present. From this painful experience, his sister, Nora Štrbová, a filmmaker, has made an organic short animated documentary, which succeeds with a rare formal relevance to represent the inexorable loss of the being.
