Score:
In search of the best photo for the school competition, four teenagers head to remote hills where the competition for awards turns into a struggle for survival. Manc, who leads the group, has been accused of stealing a phone and consequently might be expelled from school. Schoolmates Mina, Oto and Spurc join him on this trip. Mina, a spoiled, stubborn city girl, breaks first in this foreign environment, but luckily Oto is there for her. He’s a rational boy who is in love with her. With them into this pristine wilderness has also come Spurc, who has been golden-spoon-fed all his life; he turns into a cowardish spoiled-child. In the end, Manc is the one who safely guides them back home.

Score:
Twelve-year-old Elvira arrives at summer camp feeling anxious and upset because her best friend couldn't join her. She's just getting settled in with her two roommates, Bea and Meja, when a flood forces them to move to Room 213 — where no one has stayed in 60 years. Strange, inexplicable things begin to happen, and the girls grow suspicious of one another. That is, until a letter with ancient handwriting leads them into the woods to the home of an old lady, who tells them of a girl who died at the camp six decades earlier. Could this be the same red-haired girl in a white dress they have seen sneaking through the corridors at night?

Score:
Eleven-year-old Lukas and his mother get into a car accident that results in his and his mom’s hospitalization. When it turns out Lukas’ mom is in a coma, the boy must be taken care of by his only relative – aunt Agatha, whom he gets to meet for the first time in his life. Agatha brings the boy to her own guesthouse by the seaside and places him in a room his mom used to live in. It’s the room where Lukas accidently discovers a secret passage to a different dimension and soon learns what amazing and yet frightening mysteries the newly disclosed world hides. The blue door in his room is a gate to different reality. There he will have to face his fears, loneliness, helplessness and longings.

Score:
Clara (13) lives with her mother and her stepfather on a remote farm in the Swiss Alps. Clara’s sensitivity and her strong connection with nature enable her to see and feel things others cannot perceive. Only in Thomas (12), does Clara find a confidant. Through the discovery of an ancient girl’s shoe, Clara gets in touch with Susanna, a girl who lived on the farm two centuries ago. Susanna is deeply troubled: her father has captured a bear cub and – according to an age-old legend – a curse falls upon those who do wrong against bears. Past and present are more closely linked than one might think. Clara senses that there is a curse on the old farm. And she knows that she is the only one who can lift it.
