Sunday's cinemas are filled with stories of people who have made mistakes in their lives. Some of them have learned unexpected lessons and, for others, drinking works as well as learning.

What's going on in Odessa Women's Prison on Mother's Day? Is there a life after a porn career falls into decline? What laws have tried to subjugate and control love? Last but not least, there is the brilliant Bruce Mau, who deciphers and sums up everything we believe and consume.

Check out today’s schedule here.

Imagine Dirk Diggler from "Boogie Nights" continues his porn career a bit too long and discovers that the emperor is truly naked in his new clothes, not only in front of the cameras, but also in financial terms. This is exactly the situation of one Mikey Saber, who once left his small hometown with big plans to become rich and famous. As he rushed toward his dreams, he realises, illuminated as if in the rear lights of his car, that there are so many important people left behind him, who he did not make time for at the peak of his career.

107 Mothers
Nov. 14, Sunday at 6:30 p.m., Coca-Cola Plaza

A rare opportunity to take a look at a world that is hard to even imagine. In a hybrid documentary, based on the stories of prisoners at the Odessa Women's Prison, most of the characters play themselves. The result is an emotionally shaky, but also humorous and hopeful story of mothers who want their children around the world to have a better life than they do. Slovakia nominated the film for the Oscars this year.

Great Freedom
Nov. 14, Sunday at 8:30 p.m., Coca-Cola Plaza

Hans is gay and that is still considered a crime in post-World War II Germany. The infamous § 175 still applies, destroying all of Hans' hopes of living a normal life. The genre-shifting political drama plunges deep into the anxiety of the main characters, while at the same time offering an unusual portrait of same-sex romantic relationships. Nominated for Best Actress (Franz Rogowski) at the European Film Academy and winner of our DDA Spotlight Award this year.

"Moments Like This Never Last" is a documentary about an artist named Dash Snow. With a fierce attitude and burning desire, Dash creates a world free of alcohol and drugs in New York in the late 1990s. The film masterfully captures the delicate nature of the creator, how we create and perceive the world around us. Sometimes sensitivity is beautiful, sometimes it hurts.

All Eyes Off Me
Sunday, Nov. 14 at 9:15 p.m., Coca-Cola Plaza

Young Israeli director Hadas Ben Aroya explores what intimacy is and how our desires and inconsistencies are reflected in sexuality. "All Eyes Off Me" premiered in Berlin's Panorama section and is her second feature film, portraying a generation of self-conscious young people in Israel who want to test the limits of their freedom at all costs, without realizing what they might end up with. The actors perform fearlessly and authentically, the atmosphere is intense with intimacy and vulnerability. But how liberal are we really?
