Bien avant la révolution technologique de l'animation assistée par ordinateur et ses possibilités infinies, la magie de l'animation s'écoulait du crayon de deux des meilleurs animateurs que la Walt Disney Company n'aie jamais connu : Frank Thomas et Ollie Johnston. Talentueux dessinateurs de Bambi, Pinocchio, La belle et le clochard ou Le livre de la jungle, ils sont devenus des modèles pour toute une génération de nouveaux animateurs, et notamment ceux de succès récents comme Le roi lion. Leur génie créatif a rendu à tout jamais le nom de Disney synonyme d'excellence dans l'animation et ses attributs que sont la belle musique et les scénarii intemporels. Ils nous livrent ici leurs secrets, pensées, inspirations et réflexions sur la genèse de films d'animation parmi les plus beaux de l'histoire du cinéma

Portrecista (The Portraitist) examines the life and work of Wilhelm Brasse, who had been trained as a portrait photographer at his aunt's studio prior to World War II and passionately loved taking photographs. After his capture and imprisonment by the Nazis at Auschwitz concentration camp in 1940, at the age of 23, he was forced to take "identity pictures" of between approximately 40,000 to 50,000 other inmates between 1940 and 1945. With "courage and skill", documenting "cruelty which goes beyond all words ... for future generations", after his liberation at the end of World War II, Brasse "could not continue with his profession" and would never take another photograph.

In a Dream is a documentary about Philadelphia-based artist Isaiah Zagar that was filmed and directed by his son, Jeremiah. Isaiah is famous for his complex, highly detailed mosaics, which cover 50,000 square feet (4,600 m) of South Philly with elaborate designs made from tiles and mirror pieces. These mosaics chronicle his relationship with his wife, Julia, and make him a dominant figure in the city’s arts scene. Zagar reveals many personal details of his life during the film, including revelations about his childhood and the existence of an adulterous relationship that threatens to tear his family apart.
