Alissa is a Ukrainian model who has taken refuge in Paris. Having just lost someone close to her, she finally gets her first contract for a fashion show. Traumatized by war and exile, Alissa seems indifferent to everything around her, and now seeks only one thing: harmony.

For the first time, the festival will feature a short film competition. Two programs explore powerful human stories shaped by war, displacement, and loss, while also reflecting on identity and decolonial perspectives.
The jury, consisting of Mariette Rissenbeek, who has been the director of the Berlinale for many years, Robert Wunsch (D-Facto Motion), Roman Bodnarchuk (director of The Editorial Office), and Isabelle Stever (film director), will select the winner. The best film will be awarded with the “Post-Production Award” founded by D-Facto Motion.
Meanwhile, the out-of-competition program, "Don’t be a Square!" celebrates bold Ukrainian cinema, featuring everything from thrilling horror to surprising comedies and creative student films. Each program promises an emotional and unforgettable journey through the world of short films.
