Breaking Ice: The Making of Cracks In the Ice, 5min., USA
Directed by Jason Lindsey
“Breaking Ice” follows photographer Jason Lindsey as he creates his “Cracks in the Ice” series, prompted by his son’s question about what the world will look like due to climate change. Unable to give clear answers to a child who craves stability due to his medical history, Lindsey turns to art to explore this question.

The windmill and the sea, 12min., South Korea
Directed by Lysia Valentina Gani
In a coastal fishing village, fishermen often find plastic fragments inside their catch. A local child turns these into windmills, treating them as precious toys. One day, a visiting child disdainfully throws a windmill into the sea, shattering the local child’s effort. The child tries to rebuild it but fails, Later, an outsider photographer urges the villagers to change, but survival keeps them reliant on plastic. In the end, the plastic drifts back to the sea, and the child watches silently, trapped in an unending cycle.
