After years of forced labor in the Gulag, Jerzy returns home to his waiting wife and young daughter. Though life appears to return to normal, traumatic memories continue to haunt him, blurring the line between dreams and reality. Told entirely without dialogue, *Circles of Sleep* uses gestures, expressions, and glances to portray the inner world of a Gulag survivor. The film won the Golden Tadpole at the 2000 Camerimage Festival in Toruń.
Wolves divide and fascinate us. 150 years after they were driven to extinction in Central Europe, they are returning slowly but inexorably. Are they dangerous to humans? Is it possible to coexist? Using Switzerland as a point of departure, where wolves have returned in the very recent past, this documentary sheds light on the wolf situation in Austria, eastern Germany, Poland, Bulgaria, and even Minnesota, where freely roaming packs of wolves are more common sight.
