- ADA FOR MAYOR (Alcaldessa) follows former activist Ada Colau for one year, from her time organizing the anti-eviction fight in Barcelona (Spain) to the day she is sworn-in as its first female mayor.
- In dismissing the case of Idrissa Diallo and by blocking all access to his police file, the Spanish legal system has made it nearly impossible to investigate why and how it was possible for a 21-year-old Guinean man to die in a migrant detention centre in Barcelona. The Spanish state never bothered to inform Idrissa's family about the passing of their beloved one and Idrissa was buried in an anonymous grave in Barcelona. Without having as much as a single photograph of the victim, the film crew of "Idrissa, Chronicle of an Ordinary Death" set out on a quest for justice, and to perform the moral duty that the Spanish state had shirked; to find Idrissa's body, find his family and find out what happened that night in a cell in the controversial detention centre.
- It is a short film that exposes and questions the militaristic culture that imposes on young people until today the obligation to "go to the barracks to become a man", a tradition rooted in military governments. Even after the culmination of the dictatorship, the SMO (Compulsory Military Service) has been the scene of various human rights violations, mistreatment, torture and death, leaving most cases in impunity.
