This documentary was created by Ukrainians—not just to speak of war, but to share our perspective on the world, to show what makes our planet unique through our eyes. The world as seen by the Paganels must always be beautiful.

The film runs for 30 minutes—just half an hour of your time, but the result of many years of skill, talent, and dedication poured into this project. Watch it through our eyes, and you will discover the astonishing, resilient world of South Georgia—an island where Life has made a remarkable comeback after being nearly destroyed by human hands.

Can you guess where I’ve been SLEEPING AROUND SAFELY now?

In this episode, I travel with two of the Young Creators from International Tourism Film Festival Africa (ITFFA) to check in at the TAJ Cape Town. The hotel was the perfect launching point to explore the mother city - but not before sunrise yoga with a view of Table Mountain from the roof, the spa and a tasting with their in-house Whiskey Sommelier.

The presidential suite at the TAJ Cape Town was the perfect setting to get gussied up in all of my locally sourced Cape Town designers: Shimanksy, Philippa Green, Ida Elise Jewellery, Missibaba and my custom gown by Collin. Happy to report that I dressed the part, because as I stepped on stage at the iconic Labia Theatre for International Tourism Film Festival Africa, OTPYM Productions were awarded Director’s Choice for our “OH THE PEOPLE YOU MEET in Sierra Leone” episode.

I am also proud to share that this episode was edited by a Young Creator from ITFFA. This is what we call regenerative travel, leaving the PEOPLE, PLACES + PURPOSES you visit better than how you found them.

Antarctica has long been regarded as the last great wilderness on Earth—a place of immense beauty, extreme conditions, and remarkable wildlife. This documentary follows a seven-day expedition along the Antarctic Peninsula, exploring some of the continent’s most iconic locations, including Portal Point, Paradise Harbour, Flandres Bay, Cuverville Island, and Palaver Point.

Combining cinematic storytelling with personal experiences, the film captures the awe of stepping onto the Antarctic continent for the first time while introducing viewers to its glaciers, icebergs, whales, seals, and penguin colonies. Through immersive visuals and informative narration, the documentary explains how glaciers form, how icebergs are created, and how wildlife survives in one of the harshest environments on Earth.

Beyond the landscapes and wildlife, the film also explores the human side of Antarctica, from scientific research stations to stories of isolation and resilience in one of the most remote places on the planet.

The work focuses on ethnocultural memory, local identity, and the discovery and preservation of Georgian polyphony through folklore expeditions.
It explores the forgotten roots of traditions, the value of Georgian multipart singing, and seeks to revive this unique heritage in a contemporary context.
The central aim of the artist's work is to understand the significance of the unity between humans and the universe — to convey this feeling to the hearts of the audience or listeners in a natural, harmonious, and sincere way.

The art-documentary film "From Dawn to Dusk" is shot in a somewhat experimental format.
It captures a single day in the life of a specific region, portraying village life, tourism, hospitality, cuisine, ethnic identity, monastic living, folklore, ancient traditions, and the real threat of rural depopulation (migration).

Having no climbing experience until now, Müge finds herself facing one of the toughest challenges of her life. After crossing paths with Belgian climbers Sander and Maarten, she joins them in creating a daring new climbing route on a towering cliff in a remote Mediterranean cove. As the team pushes through the unforgiving forces of nature, confronts their deepest fears, and tests the limits of their endurance, it is courage, friendship, and the unbreakable bonds of family that drive them toward the summit.

Dolphins, Whales and Sharks — can tourism be protection? This is a powerful wake-up call from a planet in crisis. Our oceans, once vast and resilient, are now on the edge of collapse. Dolphins, whales, and sharks—icons of marine life—are disappearing at an alarming rate, trapped in a system driven by exploitation, profit, and silence.
The film delivers a clear and urgent message: we are running out of time. If we don’t act now, when will we?
At the same time, it points toward a compelling solution: sustainable tourism. When done responsibly, it can become a true game changer—protecting marine ecosystems while supporting local communities. Ethical whale and dolphin watching, well-managed marine reserves, and eco-friendly travel models create economic value through conservation rather than destruction.
The message is simple: the future of our oceans depends on our choices. We can continue to exploit—or we can travel consciously and help turn tourism into a force for protection.

The film is based on true events and is dedicated to Georgian emigrants in Greece. It was recorded to showcase the struggle of Georgian people living abroad for many many decades. With this movie I wanted to show to the audience how it feels to be an emigrant far from Georgia, hoping for return but struggling to make a choice between returning home in poverty or living in better conditions but with constant feeling of longing to return.
