Manizha Bakhtari says mournfully as she leaves behind the former Afghan embassy in Vienna, “We never anticipated this”. The scene underlines the air of uncertainty driving forward Natalie Halla‘s engaging documentary. The Austrian director accompanies the Kabul-born diplomat, author and journalist, in the months after a moment of unprecedented upheaval. Bakhtari serves as the Afghan ambassador in Vienna as the Taliban takes Kabul in 2021.

With a duration of 150 minutes, and a freeform structure heavily reliant on highly innovative montage, Soundtrack to a Coup d’Etat takes viewers on a loud and colourful journey across the developments that led to the murder of Congo’s first democratically elected leader, Patrice Lumumba. Most of the events take place in 1960. The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) gained its independence from Belgium (“an independence rotten at the roots”) on June 30th of that year.

This is a movie that comes with a warning: “strong language and scenes of violence and shootings which may upset some viewers, and it isn’t suitable for younger viewers”. Indeed this is neither light-hearted viewing nor family entertainment. No Other Land takes audiences on a jarring journey of Palestinian life in the occupied West Bank. An experience you won’t easily forget.

QUICK AND DIRTY: LIVE FROM BERLINMunir (Georges Khabbaz) is a middle-aged Arab. He has a thick beard and big pearly eyes with a distinctive sparkle of sadness. He talks to his mother on the telephone and promises her that he will return for a visir. He then lands in Langeneß, a remote municipality in northern Germany (Wikipedia reveals a population of just 132 inhabitants). The coastal landscape is dotted by a few houses. These sparse constructions stand on little mounds known as halligs.

QUICK AND DIRTY: LIVE FROM THE RED SEABased on real-life events that took place in 2015, Red Path tells the story of quiet and introspective teen Ashraf (Ali Hleli) and his more outgoing cousin Nizar (Yassine Samouni), of around the same age. They live a mostly eventful life with their large family of herders, somewhere in the vast Tunisian arid hinterlands. One day, they set out to explore the towering Mghila Mountain, from which they have an impressive view of the desert.

QUICK AND DIRTY: LIVE FROM THE RED SEACairo is a dark and unwelcoming city. The life of security guard Hassan (Essam Omar) is primitive and precarious. He inhabits a tiny flat above a filthy car garage business with his mum and Rambo, a devoted mongrel more or less the size of a Labrador. He toils as a lone facilities security guard, mostly at night. His job precludes most sorts of human in interaction.

QUICK AND DIRTY: LIVE FROM THE RED SEAFourteen-year-old Daye (Badr Mohamed) is doubly marginalised. He is part of the Nubian community, a riverside ethnic group that enjoys little recognition in Egypt. Plus he’s an albino. His mother (Sudanese actress Islam Mubarak) calls him a “ghost”. She notes that he’s barely discernible while wearing their local costume, which happens to be of a colour similar to his skin. He’s invisible, both literally and metaphorically.
