Brexit Through the Non-political Glass feature documentary film
‘Brexit Through the Non-Political Glass’ is a 2021 documentary directed by Nina Kojima. This award-winning film offers a reflective examination of the United Kingdom’s departure from the European Union.
Unlike many discussions on the topic, this film sets aside political rhetoric and public sentiment, instead presenting insights from non-partisan scholars and professional advisors specialising in related fields.
The documentary places Brexit within a historical framework, revealing that this is not the UK’s first departure from a European alliance—an earlier “Brexit” happened about 200 years ago. It also explores the UK’s attempts in the 1960s to join the European Economic Community.
Among the experts featured is Vernon Bogdanor, former tutor to ex-Prime Minister David Cameron, who shares his perspective on the advice he gave before the referendum.
The film uncovers the deeper historical meanings and sociocultural drivers that led to one of the most significant events in recent British history.
Available to stream on Amazon Prime Video, Tubi, Plex, Kanopy, iBossTV, and Fawesome.

TV Documentary Joker Out; Liverpool 2023 – Eurovision Song Contest
In May 2023, Nina conceived, scripted, developed and directed a 50-minute feature documentary for TV Slovenia’s entertainment programme. The film aired one hour before the live Eurovision Song Contest broadcast began at Liverpool Arena, watched by around 180 million viewers worldwide.
In the week leading up to the grand final, she interviewed most of the performers, building a strong rapport with several of them. Nina also reported from Eurovision 2023 in Liverpool for the national news programme, and was the on-camera presenter of the feature documentary.
The film captures both the joy and spectacle of Eurovision, and the pain of displacement caused by the war in Ukraine—whose people were meant to be this year’s hosts.

We’re Going to Mars – Feature documentary film (in production)
We’re Going to Mars is an upcoming feature documentary directed and co-produced by Nina Kojima, currently in production since 2022.
The film explores humanity’s dream of exploring new frontiers, particularly the efforts and challenges involved in landing humans on Mars and establishing a presence there.
It examines both scientific and personal obstacles: the thin atmosphere, extreme conditions, life-support systems, and the broader purpose behind space missions—exploration vs colonisation.
The documentary also features insights from experts like Robert Zubrin, founder of the Mars Society, who addresses the practical and ethical dilemmas of colonising space.
This documentary aims to provide a comprehensive look at the path toward interplanetary life and its accompanying moral, technical, and philosophical challenges.
Three Little Hearts (short) – now streaming on Amazon Prime
Three Little Hearts explores anti-racial theme through fantasy alien story
The multi-award-winning short film Three Little Hearts offers a poignant and powerful reflection on inequality and the enduring struggle for justice.
It doesn’t matter when—or how—we arrived on this planet. For centuries, those born into the ‘right’ race have enjoyed greater opportunities. Is history repeating itself, or has it never really changed?
The story follows two groups of alien children—one white, the other of colour—who have landed on Earth. To survive, each child must receive a heart. Only The Man, a mysterious figure who has guarded this gift for over 200 years, can grant one.
With just three hearts left, and both groups seeking him, the question arises: Do they know about each other? Which group will receive the hearts? And do they even realise that love is the key to survival?
Rich in symbolism, this film invites viewers to read between the lines. For example, the marginalised girls represent those still fighting for equality. Their uniforms—once symbols of collapsed ideological regimes—are clues.
Pursued by a policeman in a 200-year-old uniform, their story challenges us to ask: Has anything really changed?
Libido (short) – now streaming on Amazon Prime
Libido is Nina’s short graduation film. She enjoys introducing distinctive individuals and unusual characters with vivid imaginations to her audience. At the same time, Nina has a strong appreciation for colour — her work often features palettes reminiscent of Renaissance painters.
As a film director, Nina aspires to explore diverse human life stories, inviting viewers to imagine what is happening inside her characters’ minds, rather than simply showing it on screen. She enjoys playing with contrasts — starting with something seemingly ordinary that gradually reveals itself to be utterly mad and extraordinary.
Her films challenge the viewer’s natural instinct to empathise, while simultaneously drawing them towards people and situations so far removed from their own reality that they evoke both fascination and repulsion in equal measure.
