Synopsis
Maja Weiss, always engaged and speaking in the first person, seeks truth through her films. She has consistently highlighted topics that are often ignored or overlooked, such as Chernobyl, the Nuba people, Darfur, water wars, victims of totalitarian regimes, the remnants of Yugoslavia, the working class, nationalism, xenophobia, and refugees – long before the refugee crisis. At the same time, she has built a family environment that works like a cooperative, managing to thrive despite today’s challenging cultural climate.
