Through a habitual excursion of a father, his son and his two friends to Mar Chiquita Lake, Little Devils Go to Heaven explores the conflict of protecting a wild landscape in the face of the rights of 

native people to access and enjoy their original lands. 

This piece focuses on a wild landscape that served as a last refuge for the native people of central Argentina, the Mar Chiquita Lake. This lake, one of the largest and wildest masses of waters in 

South America, is presently almost inaccessible since, in most areas, the coastal lands belong to private owners. Impaired access added to the prohibition of making bonfires and hunting further 

removes this landscape from its original inhabitants. 

Firewood–perhaps one of the few goods that native people can legally profit from–and fire are definitely the symbol of a culture that has not disappeared. The ideologue of Argentineʼs Constitution

For thirty years, not a single film emerged from Paraguay, until the last three years. And then with quality. Such as this fiction film with partly realistic and partly abstract observations of a procession, 

filmed in the light of evening. The spectator is present to witness this event. The film provides the viewer with space to creatively interpret the world.

The Blindness of the Woods develops a narrative that combines the naive simplicity of fairy tales with the Nordic erotic movies from the 70ʼs. These two genders are supposed never to meet, bringing 

about mixed feelings in the audience who are uncertain about feeling moved as they watch the cute woolen characters or getting sexually aroused as they see them having sex. Ulrika, a blind woman 

who lives isolated in a cabin in the cold woods of Sweden, suffers from the freezing winter loneliness. One day, Hans, a curt lumberjack, comes across her offering not only his logs to warm up but 

also his love. A love and sex story unfolds between the blind woman and the lumberjack which is being witnessed by the voyeuristic character Bear Bjorn. Her love fullfilment is overshadowed by 

Hansʼ betrayal who takes advantage of her condition, stealing her belongings.This scenario pushes Bear Bjorn to act on Ulrikaʼs behalf doing justice to her in his own hands as he gets rid of the 

lumberjack, eventually wrapping up the love circle.

Treat (or trick) is a three part video exploring the tricks of the financial trade - Part one: The Magician, stars the notorious magician of the free market Mr Invisible Hands; Part 2: The Rabbit explores 

the secret life of rabbits (and other small commodities); and; Part 3: The Hat looks at the bottomless pit of our desires. Filmed inside the intimate space of a circular black curtain stage Treat (or trick) 

is a magic show with a difference: canned laughter, boos, gasps and cheers evoke an audience who jolly along the viewer in accepting some of the oldest myths of the free market. But as the film 

points out Mr Invisible Hands best trick is not pulling a rabbit from a hat, or acts of escapology and transposition, but in changing the relationship between audience and performer - no one really 

believes in the magic but we still come along to the show to see the "allure of the trick". Using traditional side-show-music, including the danger riff played when an animal escapes from the circus, the 

video encourages an absurdist re-engagement with familiar arguments about the logic of money.

A Nun's New Habit follows the story of Sister Carmel Wauchope, a sister of the Good Samaritans who resides in an outback town in South Australia. Sister Carmel kicked off her habit some 20 years 

ago. However, her current habit, the plight of refugees who have been detained in the nearby Baxter detention centre and the ongoing psychological damage and trauma suffered after their release is 

arguably just as profound. Sister Carmel is a gem, and through her we learn the ongoing hardships the refugees face and how important it is to maintain a sense of love, compassion and humanity in 

today's world....a world often seen to be full of fundamentalism and hatred.

In her experimental video speech, Michaela Schwentner has taken up the invitation by French musician Paul Clouvel to illustrate his composition of the same name. Michaela Schwentner trenchantly 

aestheticizes Paul Clouvelʼs soundscape, for which, among other things, he deconstructs the language of contemporary artist Joël Frémiot. 

speech thereby emerges as a multiply overwritten communication process among artists from various disciplines. Like a choreographer, the video artist Schwentner carries out the visual 

metamorphosis of a standard dance, which begins from something unrecognizable. On the sound track, electro-acoustic processes and intense fragmentation render a text spoken by a dominant 

male narrating voice increasingly vehement. Schwentner subtly counteracts the sound with soft, abstract bodies pulsating as though ghostly creatures and pink flames on the picture surface. A

tʼs March 2006, weʼre in Bunia, the capital of Ituri, an eastern province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Ten years have passed since the First Congo War, six since the beginning of the UN 

mission there. Rape is still being employed as a weapon. In A White Substance everyone involved is given an opportunity to speak: the victims and the perpetrators, and also the individuals inbetween. 

Roles are assigned, postures are assumed. The proverbial man on the street, a judge, and a man who has been imprisoned on a charge of rape express their thoughts. Women and girls 

who have been attacked speak in reports read in a voice-over or by employees of the hospital run by Doctors without Borders. This is accompanied by the drone of helicopters, full of the silent, 

omnipresent UN troops, that constantly circle the town. (Sylvia Szely)

Not so long ago Martin Bruch plunged into the busy traffic of Istanbul, Paris and New York on his handbike. He cranked with his hands, filming these journeys with a helmet-mounted camera, and 

then turned the resulting footage into his radically subjective handbikemovie in 2003. While the filmmakerʼs multiple sclerosis no longer permits such wild excursions, his thirst for adventure has 

remained.

GEORG TILLER; Naivsuperfilm; tillerkowskij@gmx.net; http://www.

Taking several characters and locations as points of departure this essayistic documentary deals with the effects of large offshore wind farms on birds, nature and the people working there. The 

never-ending drone of the revolving mills is the filmʼs narrative thread.

14. MAERZ 1938 - EIN NACHMITTAG

MARCH 14TH, 1938 - ONE AFTERNOON 

CHRISTOPH WEIHRICH; office@sixpackfilm.com 

There is a historically mythological narrative which reflects Austrian patriotism, depicting the 1938 “annexation” to Germany as follows: The external entity of politics forcibly enters a bourgeois interior 

which had existed in unsuspecting privacy until that point, and then Austria sinks into National Socialism. This narrative was employed as late as the 70th anniversary of the “annexation” in a March 

2008 television debate; even the “Nazi invasion of Austria” was mentioned once. 

March 14, 1938 – One Afternoon, a home movie which has been repurposed as found footage, turns this narrative around, tersely and in every possible way. We see (without sound) the “Nazi 

invasion of Austria.

"When the look on a face forebodes its reason, then this look becomes the mirror of fantasy." (Béla Balázs) - Where do you still have the possibility to openly show your emotions and excitement, if 

not in sports and which sport would be better for this than football? The film features a game of football through the actions and reactions of the fans. The reason for their emotions stays in the off for 

most of the time. The Fan becomes the medium, which communicates the match. The two teams competing are the Döblinger Kojoten and the FreundInnen der Friedhofstribüne. They fight out the 

match. Man against man, team against team. May the best man win!

12 EXPLOSIONEN 

JOHANN LURF 


JOHANN LURF; office@sixpackfilm.com 

In the sound-chapter of his Theory of Film, Siegfried Kracauer writes: “Supposing shrill screams or the blasts of an explosion are synchronized with images of their source and/or its environment: 

much as they will leave their imprint on the spectatorʼs mind, it is unlikely that they will prevent him from taking in the images....” 

Johann Lurf has made a film that refutes this assumption in six minutes. 

12 Explosionen shows a series of tableaus filmed in Vienna at night. Before the big bangs occur, the locations selected for them resemble crime scenes: There are shots of dimly lit footpaths, 

deserted parking lots, a pedestrian bridge made of steel, all with a central perspective. These places are virtually waiting for something to happen. And because of the filmʼs title we know that

24/7 (INTO THE DIRECTOIN OF LIGHT) 

MICHAEL ASCHAUER 


MICHAEL ASCHAUER; office@sixpackfilm.com 

Light, landscape, camera: 24/7 seems to have been created with the pure ingredients of filmmaking. The pictureʼs blackness at the beginning turns into ever-lightening shades of blue, eventually 

becoming a view of the sea. The line of the horizon divides it into two halves: water and sky, which change constantly in fast motion, then return to black (the black of night). Shot with a static camera 

over a period of seven days, 24 hours each, 24/7 uses digital technology to continue the tradition of the branch of experimental film dedicated to exploring the mechanisms of cinematographic 

representation, using landscapes and their topographic features or natural phenomena (light, weather). 

This particular case involves portrayal of a subject and illusionistic space which are dealt with in a new way. While 24/7 refers to something that in fact exists, something we can cling to, in the course 

of the video we notice that the direction taken by the change is uncertain.

Everything seems to be a digital loop, but the movements are shot separately. „Pass by“ shows all takes from the shooting, that usual hidden repetitions get visible. 

The movie touches on kinship patterns, the social construction of domestic space, social categories of perception and classification, and ritualized actions and exchanges, without a message in the 

plot. 

„Pass by“ is more a rolled out carpet with folds, convoluted at the end, a room stays and reminds a non-limited space.

Ground Control is a rough video miniature. It begins with the simplest and most fundamental thing the electronic moving-image machine has to offer: the uncontrolled beam of electrons directed 

across a photoelectric layer of cesium oxide lining a Braun tube, or snow. 

Recording this chaos involves a fascination that existed during the early days of film: the repeatability of a unique event. A visual sequence which has never before existed and will never happen 

again becomes reproducible, thereby losing the status of the chaotic. This idea, a result of the desire to control an uncontrollable world, is the beginning of the chain of associations in this video, 

which randomly acting ants push their way into. The image of them crawling is manipulated in the reproduced images, distortion of their movement is forced upon them. The insects become monsters 

when, after being locked into the frame, they suddenly burst into the (snow)storm as a sequence of individuals.

the slowly rolling conveyor belt of the raw fish snacks of everyday life, the descendants of Adam and Eve cower in eponymous costume under dispassionate, detached fish-like eyes. The visual focus

CORNERS represents an attempt to interact with perpendicular obstacles throughout the city of Vienna. By filming and editing these sequences as we did, one can easily discern a certain flow as all 

of the elements are integrated into a cohesive challenge in maneuvering around, over, under and through these temporary and permanent urban structures. 

It offers a range of patterns, pace, texture, colour and contrast of a city that is well-built, but not to the point where one can't shift the way that it is experienced. You have to learn how to appreciate 

and yield rewards from your city's, often restrictive, infrastructure in a multitude of different ways. You have to refresh your perception of the function of your city. We believe that with a slight shift of 

one's understanding, the city unfolds and offers plenty to play with. This is precisely what we have attempted to convey in this brief, exploratory film.

JAN MACHACEK 


JAN MACHACEK; office@sixpackfilm.com 

Jan Machacekʼs spinning black-and-white pictures take us back to the days before special effects were perfected. The performance artist requires neither a stuntman nor a computer to defy gravity 

and perception in his video. Based on the way a mixer works, he makes no attempt to conceal the film tricks or make them invisible. 

On the contrary, the movement of the camera and his body through space are demonstrated clearly: The camera, mounted on a blender, films Machacekʼs performance as he moves slowly from the 

background to the pictureʼs center for the purpose of interfering with the video imageʼs mechanical progression with his own body. While standing in the center of the frame he reacts to the cameraʼs 

movement, occasionally allowing it to lift him into the air, then hops wildly and gesticulates to counteract its dynamism.

A bubble is far from an economic crisis. Only when bubbles of extremely different order unexpectedly begin to break through, when market trend behavior can no longer be steered back into arranged 

paths, does a system threaten to totter out of balance. 

Thus suggests Didi Bruckmayrʼs trendfollower – a sort of hyper-pop clip on the current economic and financial situation. First, abstractly visualized market events are lifted as a whole onto a threedimensional 

geometric grid. In the form of pulsating cone, bubble, cube, and other spatial bulges, a pot-pourri, hyperactive wheeling and dealing plays out, which the naked eye loses its ability to 

follow, the more staccato-like the gaudy elastic discharge of form rains down on us.

The flowing cartographies, illuminated by points of light, change auto-generatively, like the hovering urban spaces. The structure of these artificial cities is determined by the data density and its

Life becomes black and white when the end is closer, when colors bleach, paper turns yellow and only in the memory faces and smiles are still bright and varied in colors.

Eric, Brandon and Buysile live at St Philomena, a home for abandoned children. Flanked in the middle of the ultra-urban jungle of Durban, "St Phils", their spiritual father, shape them and make them 

as real Men, "warriors" ready to face the life which seems to run away from them. Brothers and sisters, but also foreigner for each other, they live together all year long, fight, and form an atypical 

family... 

On the other side, there is the real family, the original one, pouring in their veins and tattooed on their skin, although it is often the cause of their troubles. During the holidays, they leave the city to 

return to their "true" familly in the village, trying to gain back the time ceaselessly lost... 

A double life, a new identity for these 5-year-old "Warriors.

DEAR ADVISER 

VINCENT MEESSEN 

distribution@argosarts.org 


NORMAL; info@normal.be 

Meessenʼs work is set in Chandigarh, the paragon of the modernist city planned by Le Corbusier in the 1950ies as a symbol of the new, progressive nation of India who had just emerged from its 

colonial past. Due to its strategic situation – close to the frontier with Pakistan and on the border between two Indian states, Punjab and the subsequently created state of Haryana - Chandigarh 

houses common institutions for both linguistic communities. The cityʼs architectural structure is that of a grid pattern, at the very centre of which the ʻCapitolʼ rises: a phantasm of centralised political 

power, overlooking the unfinished city. Haunted by the ghosts of modernism, it leaves plenty of room for silhouettes, voices and sounds weaving together a fable cherished by the late architect about 

the Raven that wants to imitate the Eagle. “Dear Advisor” is a poetic address to le Corbusier and the in Chandigarh superstitiously as “advisor” disguised legislator.

"The video film Ideaaahhhl is fully enacted in the claustrophobic seclusion of Lambrechtsʼ own apartment, an ʻinnerʼ that offersonly a confined and muddied view of the surrounding reality. This place 

should be able to offer security, to be a quiet workspace – but no, the outside world penetrates too considerably, not via communication and exchange, but as a permanent transmitter of interference. 

Neighbourly noises, street sounds, and other forms of annoyance function here as personages, but then without a face or a story. 

Lambrechts does not tell us a tale nor does she give us – even though she surveys the whole premises with the camera – an insight into her daily life. She shows us her living and working space as a 

series of ʻstill livesʼ that on diverse levels – and often not without humour – illustrate the text that the viewer reads and hears. Because in the apartment, in spite of all the everyday worries, things are

THE SCRAP-IRON AGE 

JAN DIETVORST;ROY VILLEVOYE 



JAN DIETVORST AND ROY VILLEVOYE; distribution@argosarts.org 

For the Questioning History exhibition, Roy Villevoye and Jan Dietvorst produced a new film that, in a certain sense, is a sequel to Winter Prayers, a film from 2006 about memories of the First World 

War. The Scrap-Iron Age is a film about fortune and misfortune in an environment (Northern France, near Verdun) where remnants of the First World War still abound and to some extent dominate 

the lives of the people who reside there. 

When viewing films by Villevoye and Dietvorst the question of the existential desire that this meddling with the past might be serving intrudes unremittingly. They afford the viewer access to historical 

enormities in the guise of seemingly inconsequential events, happenstance and surprise revelations.

In Complete World is a feature length documentary shot on the streets of New York City. The artist asks people of different ages, cultures, and socioeconomic backgrounds questions ranging from 

"Are you satisfied?" and "Is there equal opportunity?" to "Do you vote?" and "Are we responsible for our government?" The outcome is a group speculation on the struggles of everyday life and the 

pull between individual and collective responsibility. In turn heartbreaking, scathing, and still somehow hopeful, In Complete World can be seen as a userʼs manual for citizenship in the 21st century, 

as well as a window into where a diverse group of Americans find themselves at this current moment in time.

The hypothesis at the start of the film is: the future is dark and that is basically the best you can say about it. We find ourselves in an ideological no-man's-land in the latter days of the 1968 era. While 

the sombre images of the future are underlined by the camera, portraying in atmospheric black-and-white images the symbols of the transitory nature of power on a tour of Brussels, the conclusion

Bubu is a poet who has been committed to state institutions for the insane twelve times. He challenges the meaning of hospital-jails, hybrid institutions which sentence the insane to life imprisonment. 

The poem The House of the Dead was written during the filming of the documentary and reveals the forgotten deaths that occur in these judicial asylums. There are three stories in three acts of 

death. Jaime, Antonio, and Almerindo are anonymous men, considered dangers to society, whose punishment is the tragedy of suicide, the unending cycle of being committed to the asylum, or 

surviving life imprisonment in the house of the dead. Bubu is the narrator of his own life and also of his own destiny-death in the asylum.

It is a fiction about a girl that lives in the whirl from “post-modernity” (under Schopenhauer/Nietzscheʼs prism). Where the loneliness, anxiety, fear, individualism, “social pressure”, insomnia, etc., are 

transformed in voices (“buzzvoices”). Therefore the high-tension dilemma is “to escape herself and to go to the people or to escape of the people and to come back to herself”. 

Thereʼre no dialogs, only a narrative with a poetic prose/colloquial language.

A closer look is the key to get past and present mixed up. In “Deja-vu?”, a man turns his trauma into an addiction. And from daily repetitions he builds up his strange and private yearning ritual.

In this music video, a girl is chased around the phantom-like streets of a surreal São Paulo, Brazil. The structure of the film is circular and seamless, so, before you know it, the story begins again with 

a different point of view. Each time the narrative comes full circle, the tale becomes more sinister. With a mix of whimsical humor and gritty sarcasm this video delves deeply into the psyche of a 

jealous woman in love. 

Neste video-clipe, uma menina foge de criminosos nas ruas de um São Paulo vazio. A estrutura do filme é circular e sem emendas, portanto, derepente o filme recomeça com outro ponto de vista. 

Cada vez que a narrativa volta para o começo, a estória fica mais sinistra. Com uma mistura de humor e sarcasmo, este video clipe musical explora a mentalidade de uma mulher ciumenta e 

apaixonada.

This is a film about seeing the big fish. Believing in it. Wanting it. Telling your friends about it. Preparing your camera to take a picture with it hanging from your rod on the river bank. Calling your wife 

to discuss how to cook it in the evening. Considering to actually freeze it and keep it for another day. 

But it is also a film about stepping in the water, standing right next it, caressing its shiny back fin and then letting it swim away. Still, with a smile on your face.

Fearing that her father will go crazy from not talking to anyone but his deceased wife, his daughter decides to destroy his imaginary world. She gets rid of all of her mother's things. 

To Grandpa Ivan this amounts to murder. His horror over her death is transformed into rage at his daughter.

Willy, his older brother, didn't prepare the bicycle correctly. The seat is too high and a training wheel is loose. He's starting the lesson in front of their house, on top of a hill. Margie, their sister, tells 

him what he's doing wrong. Wiily, who never admits he's wrong, argues with her. As they arguem their brother, on the bike, rolls away down the hill towards the harbour. He caan't stop the bike

War has got inside a woman's very being. Inside her head the soldiers march out, trampling down everything in their path. Like a grieving Madonna, she weeps for son and brother. From her pain and 

the blood of men killed in battle, an army of women springs up, a powerful column inspired by faith and rebellion. The thirst for justice becomes a thirst for revenge. The woman's body is a weapon, 

her robes her armour. She who once gave life will deal out death. A film without words.

HA'Aki is a short abstract-impressionist film in which the animation and the music were made simultaneously in an organic process of symbiotic creativity. Filmmaker Iriz Pääbo tells the highly 

subjective story of a complete hockey game using a new cinematic vocabulary she calls "animbits." Pääbo readily admits she is not the biggest fan of "Canada's national game," so the great, though 

highly underappreciated NHL stalwart of the '60s and '70s, Eric Nesterenko, was her hockey muse in this artistic journey. HA'Aki is a lyrical and wonderfully unorthodox interpretation of hockey as 

played in the mind of a lyrical and wonderfully unorthodox animation artist.

THE MAN WHO CROSSED THE SAHARA 

KORBETT MATTHEWS 


BEFORE THE WINTER 

KORBETT MATTHEWS; 7th Embasst; festival@vidoegraphe.qc.ca 

A breathtaking journey into the mysterious life, death and afterlife of Frank Cole, a brilliant, enigmatic filmmaker obsessed with his art, the Sahara, life, and most compellingly, death. His formally 

inventive films explored his fascination with mortality, which was also his fuel for life. Director Korbett Matthews fluidly wraps Cole's haunting film footage around interviews with his family and friends 

to construct a fitting meta-narrative for a man whose art and life were indistinguishable. Dreaming of conquering his nemesis, the Sahara, and armed with only with his Bolex camera, Cole made the 

gruelling 7,300-kilometre, 11-month journey by camel across the cadaver-littered desert. Over the next 10 years, Cole worked obsessively on the film he shot there, Life Without Death. When it was 

almost complete, Cole went back to shoot more footage but tragically, he was never to return. The Man Who Crossed the Sahara is a gripping cinematic tale of artistic passion taken to the limits of 

human endurance.

IRENA SKORIC; Olimp produkcija; irena.skoric@gmail.com; http://www.

In the director's autobiographic intimate manner this documentary film intends to record day and night rhythm, as well as the life of a tram which disappears and which has stamped the urban culture 

of Zagreb. While number 13 is for some people an unlucky number, the tram on this line, produced in Germany in the 1960s, popularly called "Genscher", named after German prime minister 

Gensher, is for others the only shelter during the day, especially for those who are lonely or older, and, as they say, more than a piece of junk with a soul. 

One of the largest tram accidents in this area happened right here in Zagreb, Croatia, in1954, on All Hallows Eve, on Line 13. Nineteen people died, while 37 were severely wounded. "Genscher" has 

been operating on this line for exactly 13 years. 

The passengers say it's the weirdest line, taking you everywhere and nowhere.

It is Christmas time on a family farm in Bednja, a village in rural Croatia. This is the time for the traditional pig-slaughter festivity. Blood-covered snow, raw meat, smoke, steam and hazy shots of men 

and women at work seem as if they belong to some former time. Indeed, few months before this film was shot, Croatian government had prohibited slaughter of animals for public consumption 

outside licensed slaughterhouses. That was a result of Croatian preparation for membership in the European Union. Is this centuries-old tradition soon to become a vague memory, similar to the old 

local dialect that only few today speak? The dying out of these symbols of Croatian (rural) heritage has a lot in common with the disappearance of traditional rural customs in the rest of the world, 

soon to become memories of times past.

Found pictures compose theirselves in the recipient's head, gain a meaning and perhaps even tell a story. They fill with a contents or empty theirselves. Everything happens now and to me and 

concurrently claims universality of time and person. PICTURE HEAD is a short and very personal film about observing, being observed and about the luckiness of finding a shaddock. 

This work developed during a scholarship I took in 2006/2007 in Cuba. Literally found footage mixed with observations I made and with putting myself into scene. The result is a reflexion about the act 

of observing and recording. It is sort of a small essay on my weird first months being caught on the campus, which is somehow an island wthin an island within an island – socially and politically

In a hospital in contemporary times, a womanʼs soul elevates from her body and embarks on a journey through time. 

In medieval Cyprus, two lovers witness a secret meeting between an alchemist and a cleric. A life-altering truth is revealed, a curse is placed and karma is born. 

The title is inspired by ancient Greek mythology: the souls of the deceased sailed upon the holy river of Styx to cross over to Hades. Charon escorted them there in return for golden coins. 

According to Plato, souls who drink the riverʼs water fall into coma, until they complete their journey towards rebirth.

Faith, Hope and Greenland is a visual and poetic journey into the very hearts of the people of Greenland. Told in a natural, honest and non-accusative manner, its four main protagonists advise the 

viewer on the underbelly of colonisation, its effects on an ancient, nomadic culture and on the individual mind. 

However, the film is built upon hope, and throughout the entire film we get an idea of the intensity and speed with which the people of this remote country, are regaining their self-respect and 

redefining their collective identity on their own terms.

THE BEGINNER 

CILLA WERNING; Kinotar; cilla@kinotar.fi; http://www.kinotar.fi 

75- year- old Sisko is fed up with hearing about computers and the internet everywhere she goes. Even her great grandchild spends a hot summer day swimming in a virtual swimming pool at a kids 

´online community instead of a beach. 

"One feels pretty much like an outsider,” Sisko says, puzzled, and finally decides to start a computer course. 

The Beginner is a documentary film about an aging human ´s attempt to understand the virtual world swelling around her, and its new, strange language. 

Sisko´s expedition into the secrets of the seemingly mystical machine starts from the first push of the starting button and learning the double click, and continues into almost fluent googling. During 

her journey she is faced with some absurd situations, and frustration can´ t always be avoided, but Sisko is determined not to resign herself into the role of a dumb granny.

Strange Events is a dream-like film journey through a city that resembles Helsinki. The main characters in the film are a tram, city dwellers travelling on board it and crossing its route, dogs, other 

animals – and some Special Cases. 

The film draws its inspiration from certain events of which the city´s residents have written letters to the Newspaper, as well as experiences the director has been through or heard of. 

The film takes place during one day, in the Tram, on the streets and in parks and yards. During the journey, the peculiar and the ordinary, the tragic and the humorous and the absurd and the normal

In 1981 my grandparents made a trip to Paris. They spent only a day there, and wanted to see all the famous places and museums. They took photos of each other and made up a partly fictional 

story. Now the story is forgotten, and grandma hardly remembers even being in Paris. But the slides still exist, and when grandparents look at them after many years, the city and those memories 

start to live again. Is that Arc de Triomphe? Is that me? Grandma takes a closer look. Their story and the life of contemporary Paris are tied up.

The young main characters of Evolutions are in a film studio, defining their worldviews. The studio is portrayed as a stage-like space, unrestricted by time and place, and it provides an opportunity to 

reconstruct past worlds, memories and mental images. Time, on the other hand, is seen as a strongly subjective experience, as the lives of the young people are intertwined with signposts of 

evolution. Simultaneously, religious and mythological imageries are linked and become part of this complex whole that reveals how images and stories, both scientific and mythical, have made our 

world more comprehensible to us.

The daughter went there once a week to have a cup of coffee.”Slowly changing images follow. The first picture shows the room untouched, only the bed linen has been removed. Little by little, the 

space gets emptier until only one piece of furniture is left: an enormous old-fashioned double bed. At the end, it's surrounded by the belongings of the new inhabitants.On the soundtrack we hear 

footsteps, the clinking of a coffee cup and the whirring of an old vacuum cleaner. When a protective plastic cover is thrown over the bed, the vacuum cleaner slowly quietens, as if breathing.

Winter descends on Sumskoy Posad village, a thousand kilometers north of Saint Petersbourg, on the shores of the White Sea in Karelia. This is the Russia of endless forests and potato fields, a 

place connected to the rest of the country by a single, dirt path and a railway track. The atmosphere is suspended and mysterious, inhabited by timeless people who face life with the same rigor as a 

cold winter, and the immobile joy of an arctic night. Journey to the edge of the world, where simple gestures give meaning to the existence of those who made it. Gestures that give shape to a world, 

that take care of the world. Sergei Loznitsa films these gestures with the patience of one who isnʼt looking to make an affected story, doesnʼt have to arrive somewhere, who doesnʼt coupkle pretense 

with existence.

A HIDDEN GENIUS - JOHN ARTHUR GEALL 

LUDOVIC ARNAL; ARSENAL PRODUCTIONS; l.arnal@arsenalproductions.com; 

http://www.arsenal-productions.com/ 

A look back on the incredible destiny of the English writer John Arthur Geall who died alone in 1966. This man left behind an unfinished work, never published in his lifetime. He is now considered by 

many to be one of the greatest English writers of the 20th century, but also one of the greatest enigmas of modern literature. 

-- 

Who was John Arthur Geall? Who was this English writer who was born in 1914 and died in 1966 in total solitude? Why did he fascinate Orson Welles, who had planned to make a film about him in 

the early 70s?

Society today takes the necessity of financial growth for granted. This premise has become the basis of our lifestyle and living conditions. 

No one can now deny that we are facing an unprecedented environmental crisis, yet few are those who correlate this unconditional need for growth with the green issue. It is questionable, though, 

whether this premise is actually valid and compatible with human and environmental needs. 

Such concerns, illustrated by various examples-an experimental village in Italy and a Community Supported Agriculture centre in France, to name but a few-prompt us to reconsider our relationship 

with the environment, other people, and our perception of time.

« Il y a des choses comme ça quʼon peut dire et dʼautres, quand même, on voudrait pas mentir ». Cette formule qui se fait entendre au début du premier album de Mendelson pourrait résumer le 

rapport quʼentretient Pascal Bouaziz, le fondateur du groupe, à lʼécriture de ses chansons : Eviter le trop plein de poésie, oser la confrontation avec un « infra-ordinaire », faire du regard spectateur le 

moteur de toute écriture. En quatre albums, dont deux sur le mythique label Lithium, Pascal Bouaziz inventait pour moi un folk urbain à la française, comme héritier tout à la fois de Bob Dylan 

(lʼécriture fleuve de "Desolation Row", hors format) et de la chanson hexagonale. 

En 2007, Pascal Bouaziz sortait un double album pragmatiquement intitulé, Personne ne le fera pour nous. Lʼalbum rencontre un succès critique conséquent alors même quʼil était uniquement en

Valvert is a psychiatric hospital in Marseille, founded in the mid-70s in a spirit of freedom and openness. The film observes daily life there, painting a portrait of the place through interviews with 

employees and scenes from the patients' lives. In an atmosphere resolutely opposed to the standard institutional system, the liberty at Valvert reveals various facets of ordinary madness.

A film about politics, and how realistic it is (embracing utopia) to transform our world through an endless listening and hearing process, analysing and proposing new ways being aware of the easy 

dogmatics and stiff programs, keeping confidence in the final user and always being ready to give away one's authority.

The film follows this great traveller nowadays at his home in the 14th arrondissement of Paris, on trips within France, and to the Palestinian territories. The director addresses his life and heartfelt 

commitments : the United Nations, the Israel-Palestine conflict, the immigration issue and children's rights. At the age of 91, Stéphane Hessel keeps fighting for a fairer world, putting trust in the 

future, using humour and poetry. His life is a subjective take on the history of the 20th and early 21st centuries.

A young Alsatian singer wearing the traditional regional costume performs a version of “I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaynor in her maternal dialect, the words having been modified to evoke her struggle 

to keep this minority language alive. The rather gothic-looking costume invades the screen, recalling vampire movies and silent German expressionist films from the 1920s that were reputed for their 

use of light and shadow. Its presence evokes both the emblem of a regional identity and the weight of a historically loaded tradition.

A mix between childrenʼs ghost or discovery trains and Alice in Wonderlandʼs rabbit hole, Dive invites the viewer to plunge. I use my body to wallpaper a digitally-generated tunnel as I move slowly in 

front of the camera, smile, and watch you 

simultaneously, me too, I look at myself. In Dive, I subject my body to constant transformations and deformations evoking some type of monstrosity at first. But as my body keeps endlessly twirling 

through the tunnel, the idea of monstrosity becomes irrelevant, and the body-tunnel turns into a medium to reach something beyond it. The sound track–Ay Mari Cruz a classic Spanish song about a 

beautiful woman–confers a vital rhythm to the twirling tunnel as it also emphasizes the ideas of monstrosity evoking adequacy of beauty according to gender.

waiting for something - or someone. The camera insistently studies a picture on the wall, focuses from the waiting person's view on a balcony across the way, or comes to rest on folded-over bed 

sheets. Rousseau's films demonstrate how public places turn into private ones and yet remain strange in the course of it.

Right in the middle of a tennis match, two childhood friends are facing. 

The match is brutal, fierce and unequal. A scent of humiliation hangs in the air, bitter and intoxicating. 

Whatʼs going on inside these two menʼs heads as the match comes to its end ? 

The film lasts the time the two players take to change places. It narrates and stretches this short moment of break in the midst of a raging stormy mixture of muscles and sweat. A suspended moment 

that still makes hope and revolt possible. 

A moment made of pain, poetry, day-dreaming, before a probable killing... between friends !

L'Appel de la forêt follows the call of nature, but, as it is always the case with Jean-Claude Rousseau, in the form of an image. At first glance we see a green wall and a door-frame next to it. After a 

second glance the disturbing aspect of the scene crystallizes: A small, differently colored rectangle draws attention to the fact that a picture has been removed from the left-hand side of the wall, while 

such a picture can still be seen at the right-hand side of the wall. Then a man (Rousseau himself) enters the scene and puts the painting back into its original spot: It shows a roebuck. What follows is 

a carousel ride of unusual and amusing images.

Reaching her eighteenth birthday has brought on mixed feelings for Morgane. On one hand she's buoyed by a sense of liberty. On the other, she's nostalgic for a departing childhood. She carries the 

hope with her of one day being able to count on her mother. 

Morgane feels a lot of resentment and sadness. She harms herself. At the same time, she has only one desire; to move forward with her life.

In 1991 Luceʼs son was murdered in Albania. Exploring the turmoil the country went through along with the personal and spiritual experience of this woman who chose to forgive the man who 

murdered her son, thus following the “Besa” specified in Lek Dukagjinʼs Kanun, we will move along the historical, religious and social path of todayʼs Albania. Today the “forgiven” sees Luce as a 

“mother”: thanks to her he has been totally rehabilitated in the eyes of society… Luce has now become a peace mediator to help other families involved in a process of “blood justice”.

toward democracy, she became a heroine for the people through her actions for the poor via her involvement with an extreme left-wing political group.

I was born in 1979, six years after the military coup in Chile. 

I grew under the dictatorship, in my motherʼs arms. She told me that, paradoxically, it was the happiest period of her life. 

She lived through the dictatorship behind a wall, protected from it all. As soon as Iʼd grown up, my mother realized that there had never been such a harmful time for Chile. 

I am a piece of this history, full of contradictions. After democracy returned, during the government of president Ricardo Lagos Escobar, the Presidential Palace building 

was repainted in its original color, an off-white, and the pedestrian entrance was reopened in time for the 30th anniversary of the coup dʼétat. For the very first time people could walk through its halls. 

This was an initial symbol of the changes afoot. Henceforth, after ten 19 years of democracy, the population can only enter Government House by way of a route running north-south, that is, from the

In Non ricordo il titolo, Marcello Mastroianni and Ingrid Bergman are doubled by two stand-ins, each bearing perfect resemblance to them. It consists of the scenes evocative of Stromboli (Roberto 

Rossellini) and L'Avventura (Michelangelo Antonioni), as well as the two protagonists' dialogues reminiscent of L'Annèe dernière ? Marienbad (Alain Resnais) which betray their futile effort to 

understand each other. However, Non ricordo il titolo is not a simple citation or revival of old time masterpieces. It explores the duality of film images as the world itself and its simulacrum, and is an 

attempt to recreate those images that resonate within the viewer's dream and memory in their ephemeral yet spectral appearance.

Serenity of a green wooden bench at the lake and Alqaida A bench in the park, among trees, what it once itself was – once a living creature, a tree with green leaves, with a soul… Now a fallen tree, 

made to a bench, loosing its soul, while still regaining another one, in an almost new static evergreen reality, gazing with much sadness at the past, with a glance in the eternity… This alternative 

investigative documentary begins with a green bench on a lake in a park somewhere in Germany. On the back, a cryptic plaque raises the question as to what has happened here in the past decade. 

Possible scenarios are examined in tightly framed shots with an eye for detail, and the directors' extraordinary interest in the bench doesn't go without notice. Is everything really as innocent as it 

seems? (IDFA Amsterdam 2008)

A sausage hereby works as a time line, as a connecting element between the scenes and also as an ironic national symbol.

Grete Turtur (27), is a young artist from Munich. After her graduation at the university of arts (Kunstakademie) she has to decide what to do next in her life. Does she want to make a career as a 

painter or should she settle down in the field of art education. How can she establish herself on the art market. How does she cope with the expectations of her parents and friends and a life without a 

regular income? 

What is the wealth of her art? Should she stay in Munich or move to a hipper art city? Is there still an art scene in Munich or has it become a mere reflection of a glorious past? 

The unconventional film tells a story about the multioptional life of a young artist and the reality of a whole generation.

Society carries fear-driven values and conventions from one generation to the next and the most essential question seems to be: a boy or a girl? Based on field recordings and interviews with couples 

awaiting their first baby a sound collage mingles with associative imagery shot at places that have in one way or another to do with birth. "reproduktion" is a subtle and sensitive analysis of gender 

reproduction and the influence of economical circumstances on which features and characteristics are considered to be favourable for a perfectly adapted human being.

CADRAGE (french, from “la cadre” - the frame) 

The process of framing is intended to eliminate what is unessential in the Motion Picture, to direct the spectator's attention to what is important, and to give it special meaning and force. 

The images of CADRAGE were recorded during the production of a narrative shortfilm. A second camera was mounted on the original camera, but turned around 18O degrees it focused the space 

behind the camera. Physicaly connected to the original camera it shows the framing of the narative motion picture, but with a different content. This setting invokes an interesting Discurs about one of

The look with which we comprehend the world and which it casts back at us in response breaks up in “contre-jour” into disquieting fragments. Blurs, flashes and stroboscope montages disintegrate 

reality into shadowy images that inflict pain on the eye. A spot light precisely cuts the individual out of the darkness. "I wish you could see what I see” remains futile hope. Blind spots gape between 

self-perception and the perception of others.

A persisting phone ringing goes across Dial M for Mother and dominates the sound and visual scene as well as the figure of Gena Rowlands who fights while being chased by the persecuting ringing. 

A spanish voice is heard talking to her as someone who seems to be a mother. 

Eli Cortin?as Hidalgo presents in her final work at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne a fascinating tour de force throught the depth of human psychology. 

The mother-daughter conflict on the surface reveals himself more and more as the struggle of a human being longing for identity and autonomy as well as a role in life. A struggle which can either be 

win nor lost, within a vicous circle of a never ending life fight, with the attempt to find a solution by becoming a „play“ and rescuing himself from the emptiness directly into the stage floor. [...]

PAINTING PARADISE 

BARBARA HLALI

BARBARA HLALI; barbara.hlali@gmx.de; http://www.barbara-hlali.de/ 

Media reports show how the wall surrounding the Shiite quarter in Baghdad is painted with beautiful landscapes: Aesthetic creation is used to cover military measures and war effects. 

In the film I am applying a similar technique regarding the overall situation: Pictures from conflict areas are layered with colour, changed, adorned. 

A deceitful idyll develops, however, facing the real (war-) situation this cannot be sustained. By covering up the reality, the paintings actually draw attention to the truth that lies beneath them. 

The film depicts the beauty within the area, in which the mythological paradise is to be located. Images like these inspired the European dream of the Orient; today though, scenes of war and terror 

are the harsh reality. 

It asks if an aesthetic-artistic approach could meaningfully help to improve a situation. It also asks, whether military interferences can be the suitable means to achieve this goal.

VOLUME I is a computer animation, based on an extensive collection of commercial stock photos. 12.452 unprocessed royalty free images are arranged according to criteria of form and content and 

assembled to a single frame animation. The frames exchange at such a speed that the individual image can hardly be grasped by the eye. A thematically comprehensive image selection, which 

covers the most popular motifs in advertising refers to the character of the work as an encyclopedia. The sequential sortation according to form and colour generates a more or less fluent effect and 

makes - in spite of the high picture frequency - the vaguely perception of subjects possible. To amplify the impact of the image stream VOLUME I lacks any kind of soundtrack.

What's this chain of logical actions and reactions that we don't seem to be able to break or subvert? Human relations repeat themselves, history repeats itself... For ages with the exact same amout of 

cruelty. Poetically collaging images and sounds that she recorded on journeys over the past years with her familiy's Super 8 archive the filmmaker shares personal thoughts and doubts about groups, 

relationships and forms of political action. Until in a feverdream the root of all problems in society starts becoming clear to her for a moment. Just before everything vanishes again in the blurry abyss 

of existence. 

This is a film about the predictable patterns of human behaviour!

When a thought turns into reality, when conceived images start to exist, 

this is when fiction becomes reality. A handcar on the tracks of the metropolis. 

Infinite, without any destination. „In Between“ tells no story but a condition. 

It is a declaration of love for the moment.

THE RED CARPET

JÖRG HOMMER; mail@joerghommer.de; http://joerghommer.de/ 

the red carpet is a persiflage about the protocol at state receptions, which take place every day all over the world and as you can watch them on TV: handshakes, smiling faces, heavily symbolic 

gesticulations. The film shows world leaders from a different perspective and focuses below the ordinary TV-surface. It exposes what is happening before the recurrent well known pictures are taken. 

The film was shot on the G8 Summit in Heiligendamm, Germany.

Transitory spaces, locales shifting before one's eyes; manifestations of fleeting memory paraphrases. Retention of reminiscences such as the collection of shards from past times. Mementos buried in 

the earth over the course of time. Traces of existence are being arranged in fluid image constellations. The flow of time is observed, collected, processed so as to acquire a tangible presence – an 

imprint of an accumulation of fleeting moments. Spatial voids and temporal pauses are being transformed into materials and media which reflect the possibility of the potential, incorporate and 

reverberate the undefinable and elusive transitions in a status of hovering. 

In the realm of memory associations remain fragmentary, incoherent and fragile. Those are the elements which I wanted to capture and retain in this autobiographic film. Following the compass of 

childhood memory and recounts of past incidents I was led to a wandering through space and time – just like the exploration strolls with my father twenty years ago in the fields around my hometown

ʻLatawiecʼ is an experimental short film, telling a simplified and metaphorical story of person, which is spending a windy, grey day at the seaside – alone in the landscape. He is drinking hot tea, 

watching his hands and flying a kite. There is a strange tension between the character and the object – what at first seems to be a game, turns out to be a fight, which takes place somewhere 

between reality and dream.

The movie "Der Augenblick" deals with the short moment in which a person runs across unknown people at an unknown place. Background of the film development were reports wherein persons 

who, voluntarily or enforced, went on a journey for the most different reasons, give an account of the entrance into a new world.?The film evolves from a soft light and opens the view on a far away 

group of people in nowhere-space. The camera takes the perspective of the person who approaches the group. this very slow scene of approach there are inserted short sequences that depict 

possible moments in future.?Language of the film is the universal language Volapük.

»Pieces of Nature« (2008) describes both performance and studio film 

production. Situated in a loose, self-reflexive narrative poised between the traditions of structural film, dance and theater, the carefully-choreographed film follows actors in what appears to be a 

casting process. Breathing, moving, and literally constructing the film before our eyes, crew members and the director himself are also revealed as actors, literally mirroring a photograph by Jeff 

Wall's famed photograph "Picture for a woman" [1979].

An imaginative Doppelgänger that accompanies each person is becoming visible. The Doppelgänger to me represents an ideal thyself, knowing everything, never making wrong decisions, and of

always being too late. 

Bound to the wear and tear of mass movements, this idealistic vision can decompose at any time.

JONAS` BIRTHDAY 

8-year-old Jonas is picked up by his seperated living father to spend a day out in the nature. While they enjoy kiteflying the father tells him about his plans to move away with his new girlfriend.

Legrand travels through eastern Germany to document the state of churches threatened by disrepair and is supposed to photograph the altar in Patkow. The village distinguished by rural exodus and 

an aging population regards him as an undesired intruder. One day is all it takes to wind up in the wrong place, talk to the wrong woman and get caught in menacingly beery press of the village fair.

This is the story of two actors who meet at a film set. They play a fighting and kissing couple. In real life they are strangers until they become acquainted to each other during a day off shooting. Their 

different realities collide. They both search for something but they donʼt comprehend each other. It is not a love story but a fight story about emotional closeness and distance, sense and 

interpretation, hopes and fears.

Story has it, that just shortly before you die, you see your whole life running before your eyes. Itʼs like a film. A final film. And every human being has such a final film. And we can only die after we 

have seen this final film. But where do these films come from? “Schausteins letzter Film” tells the story of Karl Johan Schaustein, an old film projectionist, who can not die because his final film got 

lost. A huge world- somewhere between reality and netherworld- is where numerous film reels are stored. These reels have been documenting the lives of each human being since the beginning of 

celluloid. The archivists of these final films are tiny, surreal looking gnomes, all running busily through the humongous aisles. 

The gnome Q-T is in charge of the life of Karl Johan Schaustein. After not finding Schausteins final film, he has to report to the boss of this world- Ms. Death herself. 

For Death is a lady. And it is because of her love for cinema the humans have our own final film.

Passenger is a short-film based on the short-story "On the Tram" by Franz Kafka. The story is taken from a collection of short stories called "Contemplation". 

A man enters a tram contemplating about his stand in the world, his right to be there. As the film goes on other people also characterize him. Apparently he does not seem to notice it, because they 

are outside his perception. In the end, the viewer is as puzzled as the passenger. 

This is the 5th Kafka short story made into a short-film by Mirko Tzotschew.

In Lima, at the beginning of 1993, Rebeca decided to walk across the highway next to her house but her ramble was interrupted all of a sudden. After that all became black. This woman was the 

directorʼs grandmother. Her unexpected death is the leitmotif to make this film as he tries to find a way to bring across this very painful family event. The main challenge relied on crossing over 

between the contradictions of an autobiographical work and the search to find a different memory of Rebeca at the end of her walk. How can cinema mediate painful memories? What kind of truth 

emerges by the means of radical subjectivity? These questions expanded the film from the simple documentation of facts to the fields of portrait and self-portrait, of the I and of the other.

In Waldenburg, situated in the Lower Silesian Coalfield, all mines are closed down. Lukasz and his elder friend Jacek have been digging coal at their own risk for several years now. 

Like hundreds of other former miners, they are illegally digging for the black gold on the outskirts of their city. The local police are constantly after them. The miners have also been trapped in the 

tunnels several times. But they keep going.

A petinguím is a bait fish – a small fish which is used to fish other fishes. A film about the daily struggle which life constitutes, about its transitoriness and its joy. Parting from four different German 

poems the film constructs it´s own poetry with strange metaphorical black and white Super 8 pictures from Portugal of supposed unknown origin.

TRUEFICTION 

CATARINA SIMOES

CATARINA SIMOES; catarinasimoes@lycos.com; Carla Leitao 

Na atmosfera onírica de um castelo romântico, experiências algo bizarros tomam lugar. TRUEFICTION é uma meta ficção onde um olhar subjectivo sobre acontecimentos reais se transforma numa 

história de ficção-científica, a qual por sua vez ambiciona simular um documentário, gerando uma sobreposição entre os dois níveis de realidade e ficção. 

O jargão pseudo-científico do estilo documental de narração, gera uma camada exterior para o desenrolar de uma ficção, a qual se intercruza com acontecimentos reais capturados durante a 

rodagem. Como um gato que entra no plano de câmara, rebola no chão e volta a sair da imagem. A impressão resultante é como se vários momentos, como que pertencentes a um tempo passado, 

presente e futuro, tivessem juntos caído numa ranhura espacial, para sempre deambulando por entre a nébula das madrugadas na Alemanha do sul. O que é que significam o cavalo branco ou os 

fatos brancos são questões que talvez fiquem sem responda. "Como é que o cinema significa?" é no entanto uma questão expressa na forma como o filme se interroga sobre a comensurabilidade

A woman, a parking deck and the sky. The poetic 10-minute-short shows the

Certainly she did not suppose such a reaction.

Wrinkles and Dreams is a nostalgic film inspired by a poor neighbourhood in Heraklion, a town in the island of Crete, Greece. An old man is wandering about in the narrow lanes of this area 

remembering his childhood, youth, neighbourhood, lost love. The film combines elements of community dance and architecture dance video work due to outdoor shooting. The cast of this film is 120 

ordinary people, aged from 4 to 74 years old. Some of the participants are residents of the area, some other students or adults, most of them amateur and only 10 of them professional dancers. A 

lyrical narration and an original score, based upon traditional Cretan-Greek sounds, embraces the originality and romanticism of this work. Souls, people 

friends and strangers. A whole neighbourhood

Shanghai Saga is two Hongkong womenʼs video essay-poem on Shanghai. Linda and Gina relate to Shanghai on very different horizons. Linda knows Shanghai as a cultural theorist in film and 

literature and a drifting traveler. While engaging in the visual imaginary, she also observes the everyday texture of the city and the effects of urban renewal. Gina, an economist, art advocate and 

financier living half-time in Shanghai, studies the unnoticed scenario of excessive real estate development as an accidental refuge for unknown artists who want to make sense of their career. Video 

diary and visual ethnography, the work experiments with diverse visual sources (1934-2005) to open up each fragment as both document and representation, thus explores spaceʼs generative 

capacity to produce knowledge.

experiences of his migration and his new environment using cinematographic possibilities. Nobert has learnt the art of painting of Portuguese tiles, the azulejos with which he earns his living until

tile-ornaments found on buildings, metro-stations, in apartments, on every corner. 

Besides, the azulejos painting in Portuguese history shows an interesting parallel and an example of the possibilities for the integration of the cultures of today's immigrants in Europe. The history of

VACSORA revolves around a day in the life of a small rural Hungarian family during the riots of September 2006. The day starts when the adult son of the family slips and falls during the morning 

feeding and is laying unconscious in the pigpen. The town also wakes up and goes about its business but without anyone noticing. The constant radio chatter brings the outside world in, echoing the 

cultural and political pulse of Hungary. As the day ends and the sun sets, the story also unwinds -- but not without the proverbial irony we know life to be.

WEAK DAYS 

Three people, living on the edge: Imike, Böbe, and Irén, a strange little family in 21st century Hungary. Imike is a Gypsy pimp; his girlfriend, the Romanian-Hungarian Böbe, and their flatmate Irén are 

prostitutes. The three of them are trying to find their way in the chaos following the collapse of the Socialist regime, with Imike getting into trouble about owing money to a drug dealer. The film tells 

the story of the twisted relationship of Imike and Böbe, showing mercilessly realistic and grotesque moments of their lives, full of sex, violence, and shady business. However, the film is not only about 

social commentary: it tells a story of rage, love, blind instinct, and no-way-out situations.

METAMORPHOSIS 


A special technical solution prompted the idea to make a film out of Franz Kafkaʼs short story "Metamorphosis". This device consists of a camera made up of 6 objectives and the CCD chips arranged 

behind them which map the space around them in 360 degrees; the 6 separate images are then formed into a cohesive sphere with the help of a computer program. 

Taking into account the fact that the workings of this device resemble the eyes of an insect in many ways, we attempted to adapt Kafkaʼs story from an insectʼs – Gregorʼs – subjective point of view 

from beginning to end.

THE POSSIBILITIES OF MAKING FRIENDS 


The film adapts four short stories by Ádám Bodor. Each story tells about the human relations, attempts and possibilities of approaching each other, and hidden, often unconscious desires. 

The tales share a common sphere somewhere between defensive aversion and friendship or love: an area of emotion and relationships rarely explored. The fine threads of these characteristics are 

weaved together in the unified chain of a single film.

ʻGood Nightʼ is the story of Madan Mohan Khullar, a lover of old Hindi (Indian) films and music, who has decided to start his life afresh. The story begins at a night when the retired engineer has just 

finished planning his new routine. However, to start a new day one has to pass through a long night, and so must he. As the night unfolds, sleepless and echoing with a forgotten melody, the 

mundane details of Khullar's life acquire a nostalgic significance. Then, there is his man-servant, a young rogue, tongue-in-cheek and the perfect foil for Khullar's personality. Any catharsis continues 

to elude the forced loner as he remains tormented by an unfinished song.

This film is a metaphor for the primeval streak of violence in us. This bloodshed has taken a ritualistic fervor post 9 /11. We are destroying our present and poisoning our future. We brazenly repeat 

the same mistakes despite all the experience we have gained (WW I and II_). 

A nuclear mushroom looks like a tree. The choice is ours. Are we going to learn from history or just perish killing each-other?

Bilal can see but his parents cannot. He is only three years old and hardly understands what blindness is. Bilal also has a little brother, Hamza. And inside a tiny dark and dank room together they live 

in a curious game of seeing and not seeing. Neighbors and relatives surround them. The film tells this unusual story by observing the little boy over a year by capturing rare moments of sharing love, 

fun, cruelty and hope… the wonder world of Bilal.

Whatʼs in a name? For Sugiharti Halim, though, a name can lead to a never-ending question. At times funny, annoying, and contradictory: Does one really need a ʻrealʼ name? Can you sell your 

name? Is it true that you can hide your identity behind a name? Sugiharti Halim offers a perspective that is comical, provocative, contextual, and deserving to be re-examined today. 

Sugiharti Halim presents a fact that rarely spoken out loud in Indonesia: the Indonesian Chinese are treated as the ʻminorityʼ. 

*) Presidential Decree no. 127/U/Kep/12/1966 obliged Ethnic-Chinese to adopt an Indonesian-sounding name (e.g. change Liem to Halim, Lo/Loe/Liok to Lukito, etc.)

Tedium breeds its own reverie. Here becomes like there becomes like could be anywhere. This forms a coincidence with the generic: Repetitions erode sense of place and make buildings seem less 

substantial. The logic of these displacements causes things to come adrift. Furniture smashes in an empty car park. Little houses sink and burn. Events of small destruction - pathetic and momentarily

This Monkey,, considers our habit of using the observation of animals, as a source of comparison and reference for our own existence and identity. The film follows a group of monkeys through a 

series of scenes that allude to some of the contexts to which we are accustomed, for example nature documentary, fable, and vivisection. The final tableau draws its strength from a sense of 

revulsion and subverts our normal perspective of empathy, making way for the question: ʻBut me, who am I?ʼ

To comprehend fully the events in the life of Anne Frank, one must listen to the voices of the children who were there with her, of those who remember her. 

Theo (Maurice) Coster, a famous games' creator from Israel, renews contact with five of his and Anne Frank's former classmates, only to discover an astonishing and confusing truth about the village 

where he was hiding during World War Two. 

Set against their childhood locations in Amsterdam, Westerbork Transit Camp and their current homes in Holland and Israel, these former classmates discuss their relationships with Anne and how 

they survived the war. Through these discussions, the film takes a bold and illuminating look at the different Dutch attitudes towards the war years in The Netherlands and towards the Holocaust.

A sad tale about a plastic soldier in a toy shop who is forced into a terrible mission. A universal legend about love, struggle and alienation. An original combination of fiction and documentary. A silent 

film with interwoven written slides. 

The film was shot without any manipulations, neither on the image level, the sound nor the events. Later, armed with the freedom scalpel of the editing table an artificial cavity was opened creating a 

space for a story that could patch the rags into a possible meaning. It is a short silent film dialoguing with the visual language and the technical means of the silent movies of the beginning of last 

century.

between actions and places, movements and the environment, because it points out that people are the place in which they live as well as the trajectories which the place itself creates. The video 

underlines the reciprocal connection between environment and its inhabitants, where territory plays an inevitable role also in its anthropomorphic transformations.

Two old friends, in their forties, meet at night in the street. 

They have a small talk about life, they actually talk about nothing and their chatting shows the emptiness of a desired, dreamt, imagined existence that has never been really lived. 

This night is not like the others. They have to meet somebody and after this meeting they could be able to change life, to make their dream come true: to leave the ordinary world around them, a 

world they have never had the strength to escape from and in which they have always been involved.

Images of 'Italian Popular Bench' have been realized in approximately 6 years, since autumn of 2000. They frame the same park bench in Finanze Square, in Rome. Since the beginning of the new 

millennium this bench has given rest and shelter to hundred of persons, becoming a witness of the passage and the meeting of people of all etnies. The video editing wants to be a nostalgic citing of 

those ʻmultivisionsʼ in the Eighties, made through projectors (carousels) syncronizing between themselves. A then-advanced technology, which today seems so distant in time.

A totalitarian regime prohibited all forms of indipendent art, including music. Two musicians line up on opposite fields, and chase each other fighting a personal battle, in a rock-movie that, through a 

nearly western imagery, ends up in a duel with unusual arms. 

"The movie came to me as an excuse for filming a landscape and measuring myself against a genre. It was shot in Corsica with real musicians, its topic being the censorship against music still 

working in many countries. I wonder if censorship can reduce music to silence, or maybe instead it gives to what is restrained more strength to survive."

Mario Monicelli lives alone at 29 Via dei Serpenti, above a shop famous for its "stracciatella" flavor ice-cream. His loft, with its sixties -style blue and yellow, could be the pad of a Swedish student. 

The film follows him around on the streets and in his run-ins with others. Although it feels like he is strolling around a town, he is really in a district of a bustling metropolis.

My grandmother used to tell me this story when I was still a child. She told it to me with her grave and far-seeing gaze and with the modesty which old people are able to bring into play when they are 

recounting facts on which it would be better to keep silent. “There is a place in Castelmezzano – she confessed to me in a low voice one day – where those people go to dance. Those who are wellversed 

in the arts, in their ʻprofessionʼ”. 

“Those people” were the “masciare”, the mysterious beings who organised those disquieting encounters in the night, taking place in a meadow which was not even very far from the village. It was 

there, from a hollowed-out olive tree, that the witches obtained the magic oil which allowed them to defy the laws of gravity and the darkness of the night, flying through the air on the backs of 

phantasmagoric white dogs …

Marta is a young, single, professional woman who lives a modest and uneventful life contained by the rhythm of her job and obligations. 

The casual reappearance of an old lipstick, which falls on to the snow white basin, staining it a passionate red leaves her strangely disturbed. With the force of a hypnotic attraction the sight of the 

lipstick pushes Marta through a door long forgotten to a place where fragments of her old life still survive. 

Like a beacon lit at night the lipstick seems to have a life if itʼs own and stirs in Martaʼs memory a series of images and sensations that reveal an aspect of her character unusually free, expressive, 

and transgressive. 

Pretty soon the vision of the “new” Marta entwines withʼ the real Marta and the reckless ambiguity of the first contaminates the apparent integrity of the other upsetting her equilibrium.

Kotaro is the heir to a drapery business named Ebisuya. He cannot restrain himself from visiting Yoshiwara, the former red-light district in Tokyo, every night. 

Though he is old enough to take over the family business, he continues to spend all of his time fooling around, and his father can no longer put up with him. Amid a tumult of threats to disown him, 

Kotaro is visited by the perplexed manager of the house. “If youʼre so crazy about women, then find a mistress,” admonishes the manager. However, Kotaro replies, “Itʼs not the women I like. Itʼs 

Yoshiwara itself! If you wonʼt let me go to Yoshiwara, then youʼll have to bring it to me.” At first stunned by Kotaroʼs insistence, the manager then decides to build an exact miniaturized replica of 

Yoshiwara on the second floor of Ebisuya in an attempt to stop Kotaro from going to the real Yoshiwara. Delighted by the faithfulness of the reproduction, Kotaro becomes absorbed in playing with his 

miniature Yoshiwara, even staging a fight with another young man (doll) as he pretends to be “just looking” at a courtesan (also a doll). He gets so wrapped up in his play, however, that he himself

"Song for the Deaf Ear" is a film poem about the insanity of war and violence in Lebanon. The filmmaker returned to his country of origin in 2007 to create a film on the death of his neighbors some 20 

years ago. He constructed a story that revolves around a man who was shot dead on the streets of Beirut during the civil war and the crumbling world surrounding him. We see flashes of him 

throughout the film -- first bleeding on the pavement, and, finally, his death. At the filmʼs end, we see a home movie shot the summer before his death -- he is sailing, with his family and his fiancée, 

enjoying a simple day in their life.

however, shyness or fear of opening-up makes them communicate through the wall, sitting in their own balconies, o through a socket connecting their flats. Emilijaʼs parents also appear to be on the 

verge of divorce. The children discover common topics, activities. Unfortunately, a nearly tragic accident prevents Emilija to go to the balcony. This encourages both children to set out for a “real” 

date.

They speak with their hands and fingers. Also in the case of major sorrow. There is no other way. Not being able to speak is not the greatest loss. 

Occasionally, fiction is more convincing and real than documentary. And sometimes short is more effective than long. A married couple with a large and unspoken loss. Even if they did have words for 

it, they still couldn't have spoken. They speak with their hands and fingers. Even in difficult conversations. Because it's all they can do.

A small town south of the Mexican border decides to take control of their own community and stem the tide of migration to the US. This short documentary film chronicles their unique solution to 

stopping the exodus from their town: the creation of a theme-park event, a simulated border crossing complete with fake 'border patrol' and balaclava-clad coyotes and guides. Through a 'journey' 

across the border and a poetic exploration of the town itself, this film details the effect of migration on Mexican communities and adds a fresh perspective to the ongoing immigration debate.

The ideas they came up with, however, didn't look much like the traditional fairy tales we are used to.

At home, the brothers wrote their stories down, unaware of their shortcomings. 

But then they heard their last tale being acted out next door, quite differently from the way they had written it.....

'Fences' is a short abstract handmade film, creating optical illusions by exploring graphic fence and wheel structures. The title refers to the ʻfence phenomenonʼ, which was first observed in 1821 by 

the Scottish publisher John Murray (J.M.): the spokes of a wheel which are viewed in motion through a series of vertical bars, assume the optical illusion of a curvature of the spokes. This perception 

was the overture to the invention of film. 

As underlying theme for the soundtrack, Hans Muller has chosen the noise heard when a stick is dragged along metal railings. The music is recorded through a MIDI driven grand piano.

The narrative of Julia / Giuliana is build solely on still images, both photographs and drawings. The drawings portray the main character, the photographs her surroundings: modernistic architecture 

that is both shutting out and closing in. Based on the makerʼs fascination for films of the 60's and 70's, particularly those of Michelangelo Antonioni, and a personal homage to the actress Monica Vitti. 

Julia / Guiliana was made during Bovenkerkʼs residency at Impakt in Utrecht, winter 2007. Besides the film, the project also consists of a series of drawings and photographs.

“All my poems are about love and death; there are no other themes” – wrote Boris Ryzhy, the famous young Russian poet in 2000. “But despite everything, Iʼm happy with my wife and son.” A year 

later this charming hooligan poet hung himself. He was just 26 years old. 

As the filmmaker embarks on a quest to understand the reasons for his suicide, she reveals the hidden tragedy of the lost perestroika generation, to whom Boris gave a voice. “We were thrown out of 

communism, but never reached capitalism” as his young widow puts it. The perestroika years of the Jeltsin era, which the West associated with democracy and freedom, felt very different in the 

lawless streets of Yekaterinenburg, where gangsters slaughtered each other on a daily basis. In the snow-covered cemetery the faces of Borisʼ classmates stare out from black marble tombstones.

FUNFAIR 

ANNETTE OTTO; info@filmbank.nl 


Poetic film about the funfair which concentrates on human conditions. The enchantment of children. The ease of the youth, full of expectations. Fleeting smiles. Devotion to the moment. Felicity... but 

also melancholy and vulnerability. The film shows the funfair as an arena in which fundamental conditions of being reveal themselves - as a metaphor of life. 

Directorʼs statement: “My film is inspired by one of my favourite poems by Rainer Maria Rilke: The Carousel (1906). This poem describes an old fashioned carousel from the point of view of children. 

It is a rueful ode to childhood – ʻthat land, which hesitates for long before vanishing.ʼ It is one of Rilkeʼs so-called object-poems, where he tried to describe the pure nature of an object.

In Light the movement of a performer is made physically sensible by transforming it into abstract imagery and spatial moving sound. By leaving the performer out of the final result, the movement is 

experienced from inside - from a zero-point of orientation - instead of observed from an external point of view. The title of the project is Light: of little weight, delicate, not solid but changeable. So 

even though there is the precondition of showing the negation of the performerʼs physical presence, in the end this is meant to engender her attitude: gentle, agile and fluid.

Weight is a series of short films that are each based on different excerpts from literature. The selected excerpts served as the scenario for the films, and demonstrate the moments of subtle tension 

that precede a significant event in the plot. A search for the moment, and for the physical state of the decision making. 

Removed from the context of the original story these excerpts are enigmatic, but retain the same tension inherent to their former position. As they start to interact on a suggestive level a new, highly 

tense, charged story emerges. The project strives to convey the 'weight' of the moments without the context of their original narratives.

father with him to a holiday park in the south of the country, hoping to be able to get in touch with him in a place where they once spent happy days as a family and where the temptations of alcohol 

will not be so strong as at home. Kees doesnʼt recognise his son 

their contact is difficult and at the very first chance he gets, Kees manages to get hold of a can of beer. Jacob realises that the only and also the ultimate way to get in touch with his father is to drink 

together. And so they do, with a vengeance.

Based on the lyrics of 'Quiet Show' by Mujaji, this short film captures the mood of the song by creating an atmosphere that is magical yet dark and melancholy. Quiet Show leads us through a forest 

of cut-outs inhabited by shadow puppets, where lights move by, passing out of sight. We are taken to a world of shadows and solitude.

After the death of the Holy Prophet Mohammed, Imam Hossein - the Prophet's grandson, and the third leader of the Shia Muslims - refused to swear allegiance to Yazid, the caliph of Damascus. In 

680 AD a bloody battle took place in the desert of Karbala. Hossein and his men were brutally murdered and the women and remaining children taken as captives by Yazid's army. 

Every year, throughout a ten-day long mourning ritual, the Shia Muslims commemorate the martyrdom of Imam Hossein, carrying out processions to express their anguish and grief. 

In "Theatre of Tears", three generations - the old and faithful haji Keramat Haghighi, the young actor Abdolrahman Hooshiar and the powerful Mullah Hojat-al-Islami Razavi Ardekani - depict today's 

Iran through their own different involvement in and interpretation of the ritual dedicated to Imam Hossein. As haji Keramat emphasises on the miracles created by Imam Hossein and his relatives,

The main characters of the film are: a Himalayan alpinist Piotr Pustelnik -the father - and a rock climbers (Adam and Pawel Pustelnik) - sons. The film's aim is to depict the difference in their attitude 

to the mountains and on a wider scale - to the life itself. The comparison of those attitudes intends to evoke a wider contemplation of the universal problem - "the conflict of generations". The formal 

approach based on using two different film styles (classical fly-on-the-wall in case of the father and relaxed video clips in case of the sons) represents the original author's way of telling the story.

place he has inhabited for nearly sixty years - this is an unusual location :Kalwaria Zebrzydowska (Poland) placed on the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List.

The character of the film – the retired miner from the Silesia – has 78 thousand kilometres in his legs. Right now, he starts encircling the earth for the second time. He trains unique and out-of-the-way 

sport discipline in Poland – ultramarathon. He is able to run 378 km within two days continually – distance between Bielsko Bia?a and Warsaw. His achievements are impressive: 3. Place in the world 

championship in 48-hour run and 2. Place in the European championship in 24-hour run. However, he is still asking himself a question: what would it be if he has not taken some decision in the face

A film from the Decalogue series. In a few months Sta? is going to take his First Communion. It is an intensive period of preparations, spiritual and material ones. Each person in the family 

experiences it differently. Grandparents, parents and the very hero. On such occasions a generation gap becomes apparent. Life goes on in its own rhythm; the time of the holiday is approaching... 

Insightful observation with "a patient eye" of the camera that the director points at his family and - obviously - at himself.

Human life is fragile. This seems to be the message of a series of loosely-connected episodes set on a spring day somewhere in a tower block estate in ?ód?. The focus is on the characters in the 

cramped interiors of a bygone era – in a local hypermarket, a laundromat and hospital. Someone is hav¬ing sex, someone else is studying foreign languages, a man is looking out of the win¬dow, a 

dog is waiting for his master, a girl comes back to a flat full of dead pigeons while somewhere else some other person is quietly fighting for life…The world is fol¬lowing its own rhythm. Human lives 

spin in it like atoms, always singular and alone. This combination of a realistic description and a metaphor is reminiscent of Krzysztof Kie?lowskiʼs work.

In an office like so many others, there is a boss who loves to control all the movements of his employees, making sure that they are working, however, there is one who, in order to have fun, tries 

everything to deceive him.

The forest change with the seasons. A man looks for rest under a tree, meanwhile thinks about a chair maded with tree wood where to rest. This thought brings consequences, but, at the end the 

forest recovers... 

A floresta muda com as estações. Um homem procura debaixo duma árvore o descanso e enquanto o faz lembra-se de fazer da mesma um banco onde descansar. Este pensamento tem

This is a group humoristic of Spanish and Colombian nationals, who were in squares in Spain, France and Portugal, where traditions are taurine. 

This short, from the preparations for the show behind the scenes, gives us to know a little of the world of dwarves, their expectations on the life and future, their aspirations and desires to be 

recognized and respected as normal citizens, regardless of size and differences. 

The show is a charge the bullfights where the main objective is to laugh, and not only shine where the dwarves, but also the musicians of the band and the clowns, acrobats are genuine.

PANCHO GUEDES, ECHOES OF AN ALTERNATIVE MODERNITY

com; http://www.busbusbus.pt/ 

“Pancho Guedes, Echoes of an Alternative Modernity” presents the rediscovery of the life and work of an extraordinary architect and artist who was part of the architectural avant-garde of the 50s and 

60s. Pancho Guedes was active in Mozambique from the early 50s until the independency of this former Portuguese colony and he was recognised as a pioneer of the critical movements of 

Modernismʼs revision, taking part in the Team 10 meetings together with the Smithsons and Aldo van Eyck. His radical eclectism made him a figure whose work stands out in the panorama of the 

50s, although his work has remained largely unknown. The film portraits the state of ruin of his surviving architectural heritage, and reveals his method of intimately crossing art and architecture. 

Interviews include the author himself at the age of 82, architect José Forjaz, former politician and journalist Bernardo Honwana and Mozambiqueʼs most famous artist Malangatana. The film was 

initiated on occasion of the exhibition “Pancho Guedes, An Alternative Modernist,” at the Swiss Architecture Museum, and has been concluded in 2009 with intention to bring this amazing portrait to a 

A próxima inauguração de uma exposição sobre a obra do arquitecto Pancho Guedes no Centro Cultural de Belém, a 18 de Maio, constitui a oportunidade ideal para apresentar, pela primeira vez 

em Portugal, o documentário que foi realizado no âmbito de uma mostra sobre este arquitecto português radicado em Moçambique, realizada em 2006 no Museu de Arquitectura Suíça, em Basel. 

O documentário, realizado com o apoio institucional da Ordem dos Arquitectos, conta com filmagens das obras de Pancho Guedes in loco, em Maputo, e com entrevistas ao próprio arquitecto 

homenageado, ao mais importante arquitecto de Maputo dos dias de hoje, o seu discípulo José Forjaz, e, ainda, ao ex-Ministro da Cultura moçambicano Bernardo Honwana e ao famoso artista 

Malangatana.

"Reservado" is a documentary that takes place in a space some have 

heard of, but few know about. The dance hall works during the 

afternoon and was always been seen as a decadent place, despite the 

fact that people have little knowledge about both the community that 

goes there, as well as the reason that takes more than 300 people to 

attend it. 

“Reservado” é um filme documentário que decorre num espaço que alguns já ouviram falar, mas que poucos conhecem. A danceteria que funciona durante tarde sempre foi vista como um local

pessoas reformadas viúvas e divorciadas que encontram uma forma de envelhecer menos sós. A musica, as luzes, o convívio, o amor, a dança, fazem parar o tempo, esquecem os problemas que

These images in the wasted film, doomed to emptiness and total forgetting, lead us to the ambiguity and indetermination between life and death, in which narrative and temporal logic are suspended. 

Arise (Zona), parte da longa metragem A Zona, de Sandro Aguilar, e eleva-se de toda a sujidade cinematográfica intrínseca ao suporte fílmico. 

As imagens impressas nos desperdícios de película, votadas ao vazio e ao esquecimento absoluto, reportam um lugar de ambiguidade e indeterminação entre vida e morte, no qual a narrativa e 

lógica temporal são suspensas.

We kill, we eat, we starve, we buy, we love, we spoil, we invent, we experiment, we create God and we let it destroy us. It's all happening here, in a place called Earth. Should we bother to conquer 

outer space before we know our own kind? 

This short film was created from selected writtings of Arthur C. Clarke, Aldous Huxley, George Orwell, Stephen Hawking, Charles Darwin and Dante Alighieri. 

Matamos, comemos, passamos fome, compramos, amamos, estragamos, inventamos, experimentamos, criamos Deus e deixamo-lo destruir-nos. Acontece tudo aqui, num sítio chamado Terra.

A tendency for secretly observing others - people and spaces – leads to the creation of a method, rules so this information may me gathered, analyzed and treated. The most common actions in a city 

are defined - sleep, walk, work, eat, drink, talk. In the urban space these actions are observed and captured during 45 days with audio recorders + mic´s, 4 to 6 video + photo cameras recording 

syncronolly. The obtained real moments are reviewed, reframed and recouped attempting to create an emotional map of a city, Lisbon. To catch this impersonal world and to describe it having as 

base individual experiences of many people. The story is the city we pass by and many people are many times also all of us.

No espaço urbano e durante 45 dias, observam-se e captam-se estas acções de todas as formas possíveis com gravadore de som, mic´s e 4 a 6 cameras de video a gravar em sincronia. Revêemse

"The Real Time is the most Surreal of All" is an experimental video that started with a reflexion between still and moving images in digital video. 

Exploring the space of the city as a place where the movement presents variations of velocity, and through the juxtaposition and fusion of instants, this audiovisual project situated the viewer not in 

the past or the present, but at the moment of separation between these two temporal dimensions . 

The small fragments recognizable as "reality", permit to make a connection between the world of visible and referencial images and the world of mental and unpredictable images.

imaginated image, from natural space to the contemplation, from poetics of space to its reflexion, from filmic structure to thinking process, from self to collective conscience.

The demiurge, interpreter of the nature, evoking the silence and the light: Constantin Brancusi. The trees and the animals that surrounded him, in his childhood, in the forests next to the Carpathian 

Mountains brought him the capacity of fixing the incommensurable, having the intuition of what is hidden beneath the exterior form. In his trajectory, he created a body of work in which he celebrates 

the world with great influence of his ancestors, but projecting the future in the movement that is foreseen of his sculptures. He left a legacy of serenity and power, harmony and mystery. Fascinated,

is the more terrible and it can overcome us some years later, just by chance as one goes back to a room to pick up some forgotten item.

The universe of the child´s imagination is rich in shadows and fantastic 

creatures that inhabit the small spaces of a bedroom or of a closet or 

under the bed ... 

The character of this story is a victim of his own mind, creating a strange 

universe out of reality. 

In this film, the imaginary and the real create a third variant with singular 

O universo do imaginário infantil é fertil em sombras e criaturas fantásticas que percorrem os espaços reduzidos de um quarto, armário ou debaixo de uma cama... 

O personagem desta história é vítima da sua própria mente, criando um universo singular da realidade. Neste filme o imaginário e a realidade criam uma terçeira variante. 

Será que a mente labiríntica de um miúdo cria estes terrores, ou há algo mais que não conseguimos explicar, brechas no espaço e no tempo onde os dois universos se ligam e criam 

acontecimentos estranhos captados pelos mais sensíveis?

Primo, a mountain man, is reunited with Saraiva, an old friend who had emigrated to France and is now back to fulfill his late wife's wish of having her ashes laid to rest in the old mountain chapel. As 

the two friends make their way through the mountain, what seems like a peaceful journey quickly turns into a dispute over ancient personal wounds. 

Numa estrada de serra Primo, português beirão, homem do campo e da serra reencontra Saraiva, emigrante em França, acabado de regressar à sua terra com o intuito de cumprir a promessa feita 

a Maria, sua falecida mulher, de levar suas cinzas à ermida da serra onde cresceu. Os antigos amigos seguem juntos serra acima, levando a urna de Maria na direcção da capela da serra. O que à 

partida parece ser uma viagem pacífica pela densa serra e uma oportunidade para os dois velhos colocarem a conversa em dia revela-se num antigo ajuste de contas.

Based on a short-story by Georges Simenon, the film tells the story of a man who, after knowing that he will die in a few months, does not find consolation in the faith he raised in, nor does he 

despair, but, in the contrary, starts, for the first time in his life, to act and seek what he really desires. 

Inspirado no breve conto de Georges Simenon Le Destin de Monsieur Saft, o filme conta a história de um homem que, ao receber a notícia de que tem apenas alguns meses de vida, não encontra

“COLD DAY” is a portrait of a first relationship, previous to the external world, the one of the family. In a winter in Lisbon, father, mother, son and daughter, trace the path of a day by themselves. A 

film that develops through characters who have for their antagonist life itself, with nothing (and everything) heroic about it. 

“UM DIA FRIO” é um retrato de uma relação primeira, anterior ao mundo externo, a da família. Num Inverno em Lisboa, pai, mãe, filho e filha, traçam o percurso de um dia, a sós. Um filme que se

with the Allied armies just a few scarce meters away from the Fuhrerʼs bunker where all evidences are being burned, hiding a cruel and terribly deceptive regime.

A bored man has his evening in front of the TV interrupted by the eminent arrival of his temperamental ex-wife. To avoid conflict he embarks on a wandering drive through the streets of Lisbon as she 

goes to his house "to pick up some things" that she has left behind. The drive is upset by the ubiquitous Dr Leonor Carracha, a spiritual guru who promises to shed light on people's lives with her new 

self-help guide, and by the chance encounter with a deranged woman who is bitter about men.

We donʼt know much about the future world where people go to a Kinotel. But going to the cinema has radically changed. It has became an intimate experience where revisiting film history people are 

involved in a kind of interactive ritual during which boundaries of reality are dissolved. Refering to “Last year at Marienbad” by Resnais and “Solaris” by Tarkovsky this strange and hypnotic reflection 

becomes an unexpected emotional happening between memory and dreams. 

Pouco sabemos de um mundo futuro em que as pessoas visitam um Kinotel. Mas a experiência de ir ao cinema mudou radicalmente. Tornou-se um ritual íntimo em que as pessoas mergulham na

Tarkovsky esta estranha e hipnótica reflexão transforma-se num acontecimento emocional único entre a memória e o sonho.

Thereʼs something missing in every single one of them, something that´s trapping their relationships. Silence imposes itself to hide their ever growing cynicism . 

As distance grows , they have to make a decision, whether they understand it or not.

THE UMBRELLA 

Sílvia lands in a new reality. She left behind an unknown past; the future, she laid it on the hands of an acquaintance she will never meet. 

Upon arrival to the hotel, she is told of the departure of her acquaintance. Alone and without anywhere to go, she decides to stay for the night right there, the only place seemingly familiar. 

Little after unpacking, she gets a visit from an unknown conferrer, who got to her door by mistake. A lucky coincidence for Lívio, who finds her worthy of an invitation to the hotel lounge and, soon 

after, a Dvorák concert. 

On the way back home, after a break for a post-concert drink, during which they laid the cards on the table and their present lives are confronted, Lívio kisses Sílvia, when she seeks shelter in his 

embrace. 

Sílvia aterra numa nova realidade. Para trás deixou um passado incógnito; o futuro, esse, deixou-o nas mãos de um contacto que nunca será. 

Ao chegar ao hotel, é-lhe relatada a partida do seu contacto. Sozinha e sem rumo, decide pernoitar ali mesmo, no único lugar já dotado de uma familiaridade aparente. 

Pouco depois de instalada, recebe a visita de um desconhecido conferencista, vindo ao engano até à sua porta. Feliz coincidência para Lívio, que a acha meritória de um convite para o bar do hotel, 

e posteriormente, para um concerto de Dvorák. 

No regresso a casa, depois de uma paragem para um café pós-concerto, durante o qual o jogo é aberto e as suas vidas presentes confrontadas, Lívio beija Sílvia, quando esta procura refúgio no

Lúcio enters the living room. Babá is lying on the couch listening to music. 

She welcomes him with coldness and hostility, despite the good will the young man in love, who bears everything, with the stoicism of the great romantics. 

Denied a kiss in the cheek, the water in the desert of deprivation, Lúcio loses his temper and slaps Babá, who wastes no time to reply the same way. 

Once the situation settles, Babá raises Lúcioʼs hopes, asking him to call her the following day. 

For Babá, agglutination defies logic, and can only be processed through similitude. 

Lúcio entra na sala de estar. Babá está deitada no divã a ouvir música. 

Recebe-o com frieza e hostilidade, apesar da boa vontade do jovem apaixonado, que tudo suporta, com o estoicismo dos grandes românticos. 

Recusado um beijo na face, a água no deserto da privação, Lúcio perde as estribeiras e esbofeteia Babá, que não se fazendo rogada, responde da mesma moeda. 

Finda a contenda, Babá dá esperanças a Lúcio, pedindo-lhe que lhe ligue no dia seguinte. 

Para Babá, a aglutinação contraria as leis da lógica, e só se processa através da similitude.

instruments and discovers that with team-work we can achieve all our dreams. 

Num pequeno hospital amontoam-se instrumentos musicais em cima de macas, num ambiente caótico, com pessoas agarradas às macas, umas a chorar, outras a falar com os seus instrumentos. 

Os médicos encontram-se numa azáfama a tentar socorrer todos os “pacientes”. No meio de todo este caos, surge uma criança com uma guitarra de brincar. Os médicos recusam-se a tratar o 

brinquedo, mas perante a perseverança e ternura demonstradas pelo pequeno rapaz, o sonho de consertar o seu brinquedo vai levá-lo a encontrar a música através da ajuda dos outros 

instrumentos e dos respectivos donos. Esta é a história de como a união que a música acarreta é importante para que os nossos sonhos se concretizam, mesmo não sendo de forma como

As the clock ticks away, they soon recognise that they have complete different tastes in style and personality. Confusion bursts so they decide to smoke drugs in order to inspire themselves. They 

now have so many ideas in their heads that the confusion doubles in between them. The spectator begins to see the chaos aesthetically on screen in real-time. The clock still ticks away so the two 

start to improvise. They finally start to roll the camera as if they were filming a live show and all of their stylistic incoherenceʼs are reflected on screen. In the end, Tó and J.P. finish the music video but

segmentos para a realização do vídeo para o tema ʻFantasmaʼ, do álbum ʻÉ Isso Aíʼ (2009, aquaboogie). A sua composição pela realizadora Catarina Lopes ilustra na perfeição a toada morna mas 

insidiosa do tema, descontraído mas pejado pela melancolia e nostalgia da letra, representada por trechos mais abstractos a filmagens de patuscada de final de tarde, de postais veraneios a 

prenúncios da capacidade musical de entreter os outros de um dos músicos da banda.

Catharsis happens as a final project within a class whose subject approached was the body. Pieces were emerging through notes and sounds that later gave birth to a final piece. Without narrative 

form, the body compromises itself with the spirit through the water. "Catharsis" connects the body to the spirit, the spectator to the emotions that the whole piece seeks to convey. 

Catarse surge como projecto final no âmbito de uma disciplina cujo tema abordado foi o corpo. Pedaços foram surgindo através de notas e sons que, mais tarde, deram origem a uma peça final. 

Sem narrativa formal, o corpo compromete-se com o espírito pelo meio da água. "Catarse" liga o corpo ao espírito, o espectador às emoções que toda a peça pretende transmitir.

Viera Souto Avenue , Rio de Janeiro. August, 21. Sunday. 

A very long Sunday day observing from dawn to dusk a favorite and charismatic Rio de Janeiro Sunday spot , “ CALÇADÃO ” . 

SUNDAY may also be called the eighth day in Roman Catholic cultures because Christ's resurrection is believed to be on the day following the seventh day sabbath. A special day, a portal to 

timeless eternity that transcends the seven day weekly cycle. 

If the world ends today I just hope today is Sunday. 

Av. Vieira Souto, Rio de Janeiro. Agosto 21. Domingo. 

Um dia passado de manhã á noite a observar um dos locais favoritos e mais carismáticos do Rio de Janeiro aos domingos. O Calçadão. 

Em culturas romano católicas o domingo pode também ser chamado o oitavo dia. É o dia que segue o sétimo - sabbath. Um dia especial, um portal para a eternidade que transcende o ciclo 

semanal dos sete dias.

EXÓTICA 

SÉRGIO CRUZ

Exótica is the result of a three-week artistic residence in Maputo (Mozambique) in March 2008 with the Portuguese choreographer Miguel Pereira. The film has no particular narrative, but contains 

snapshots of the lives and rituals of African culture, through contacts with the local dance and music community. Exótica frames fragments of the African wilderness that contrast with the concrete 

blocks and rituals of dance and music as captured in the city of Maputo. The initial atmospheric soundtrack combines camera ambient field recordings, including natural sound, drums, sounds from 

city labourers and traffic that progressively transform into a drum & bass track. With a playful approach to the framing and editing of sound and image, perception of music and its performance, the 

film shifts between contrasting worlds of the traditional and the contemporary. 

“Eu nasci em 1963 em Lourenço Marques, a capital de Moçambique, que hoje se chama Maputo. 

Regressei o ano passado, 31 anos depois de ter deixado a cidade. 

Do que mais me impressionou, 

foi observar como das coisas velhas se criam coisas novas 

e o poder da natureza a invadir a cidade, rasgando o betão.”

Um estudo sobre a beleza do nada que há em um veraneio com a família. O filme faz parte de uma série de videoclipes inspirados na música de Chopin. "STEREO CD CASSETE DECK RECEIVER

jazzistico e futurista, Piraí, com 30 minutos, busca obter do compositor as várias facetas características do romantismo, principalmente a melancolia, a graça, o vigor e o ritmo. Um final de semana 

na cidade de Piraí com minha família me proporcionou captar o material para todos estes temas da forma mais simples possível: filmando tudo - ou, na verdade, nada. Todo o som e a maioria 

esmagadora das imagens está em seu estado original, isto é, como captada. Para tal, foram explorados diversos recursos da câmera, uma mini-DV da Sony de 2002/3 (emprestada pelo grande 

artista, designer e amigo Flavio Mario) e aplicados alguns efeitos na pós-edição, como slowmotions e afins. As 5 músicas de Chopin são do disco da também querida Paula da Matta, "Triunph in

On the mythic Trans-Siberian train, in the 3rd class wagon, all kinds of stories can be heard. People from different nationalities as well as locals, workers, soldiers, students, ...they all share the same 

time and the same space, ...and along the journey, they even share their own lives... 

The theme of this movie is one of those stories, amongst many others. 

Two men travel on the same train, a russian soldier and a Chechen man with his family returning from the motherland... Without them knowing a genuine link connects them, Chechnya. A war for 

independence, for a territory that Russia doesn't abdicate turns all Chechens into soldiers at birth. 

A bordo do mítico comboio Trans-Siberiano, na 3ª classe, podem ouvir-se todo o tipo de histórias. Diferentes nacionalidades, habitantes locais, trabalhadores, soldados, estudantes... Ao longo da 

viagem, todos eles partilham o mesmo tempo, o mesmo espaço e, no tempo da viagem, as suas vidas. 

O tema deste filme é uma história entre essas outras tantas. 

Dois homens viajam no mesmo comboio, um soldado russo e um cidadão Checheno que regressa da sua terra natal com a sua família. Sem eles saberem, algo os liga - a Chechénia - a guerra pela 

independência de um território de que a Rússia não abdica fazendo com que todos os Chechenos sejam soldados por nascença.

The story takes place in Portugal, year of 1974. 

Just another Sunday starts in a province palatial urban house for a wealthy old fashion family, or so it seems. As the well composed mother awakes and starts preparing the breakfast for the whole 

family her two young boys, of 5 and 6 years old, play with a bicycle on a different floor and the deaf grandmother knits in a different compartment. 

When the mother goes back to her room to check on the baby and tell her husband the breakfast is ready, one of her two kids falls from the bicycle and hurts himself. She and her husband end up 

running with him to the hospital, leaving the younger kid with a young neighbor, of 6 years old that just arrived, the grandmother and the baby behind... 

Still at the house the two boys start eating their breakfast when the baby starts crying. In an attempt to calm the baby down they found the cloth diapers dirty. At this moment the phone starts ringing 

A acção toma lugar em Portugal, na província, ano de 1974. 

Mais um domingo começa e tudo corre normal numa casa urbana apalaçada para uma família tradicional abastada, ou assim parece… 

A mãe, bem composta, prepara o pequeno almoço para toda a família enquanto os seus dois filhos, rapazes de 5 e 6 anos, brincam com uma bicicleta num diferente andar da casa e a avó, que é 

surda, faz tricô num outro compartimento. 

Quando a mãe volta ao seu quarto para verificar se está tudo bem com o seu bébé e dizer ao marido que o pequeno almoço está pronto um dos rapazes caí da bicicleta e aleijasse. Ela e o seu 

marido numa correria acabam por leva-lo para o hospital deixando para trás o filho mais novo com um vizinho, de 6 anos que acabara de chegar, a avó e o bébé…

Carter Films; 

A documentary about the Romanians' sense of property, about different generations and similar desires . The movie is trying to show through the eyes of a teenager - the narrator and main 

consultant of the movie has 17 years - that there is no "precipice" between generations, this being an excuse for the inpatient ones. We have people around us from whom to learn - not like in school 

but like in life. It depends on us, regardless of age, to discover the treasures.

Bric-Brac is the story of a film director who tries to persuade the main actor to continue playing his part in the film. 

The actor refuses to get involved due to the similarities between the movie action and a real situation he has gone through (a violent argument with his girlfriend). The film merges the actorʼs personal 

story and the film script, so that you cannot discern between the fiction intended by the director and the memories rejected by the actor. 

Finally, the film director seems to convince the actor to stay on task, although the alternative of shooting a film on the Romanian Revolution (a fashionable theme) is still on hand.

This film takes us into the world of old man Peter Sengepov, the last surviving Shaman of the Kazym River, who lives alone in the depths of the Siberian taiga. The region of the Khanty people is the 

basic source of oil recovery in Russia. About 70 percent of all Russian oil is extracted here. The oil companies actively buy huge territories in the North of Siberia. Indigenous people are compelled to 

leave these places, their own patrimonial territories, and so a modern civilization gradually absorbs an ancient culture.

Film is about three leading countries, which used to play important role the 1st steps in space exploration: The USA, Russia and the Peopleʼs Republic of China. 

Using unknown chronics makes the film exclusive and interesting for the wide audience of people. 

Emotional review of the film is shown in a long way of investigations and discovery. It is also requiem for the victims of space exploration process.

A security guard by day, Themba supplements his meagre income with crime in order to support his younger brother, Vuyo. Like the gargoyles on the block he guards, he is both a symbolic protector 

and a threat. Although Themba is determined that his brother not be disadvantaged by poverty, he does not understand the him. Vuyo exhibits a passion for the natural world that only his favourite 

teacher seems to share. She is chaperoning a camping trip in the veldt, and Vuyo longs to go. The fee is expensive, and Themba refuses to pay. Vuyo decides to prove the money exists, which leads 

to a devastating discovery.

In June 2005 a law on gay marriage was passed in Spain that grants gay couples the same rights as heterosexual ones. Certain mayors (who carry out civil marriages), in right-wing city councils (e. 

g. in Valladolid), tried to refuse to follow through with the act, but gay Mayor Francisco Maroto stepped forward and said: I do. Besides his militant stance, he saw an opportunity to enrich the 

population in his small town of Campillo de Ranas (Guadalajara). Residents have been emigrating en masse in recent years, but now the town is back on the map. Marotoʼs nuptial strategy of 

development has bucked the trend of rural depopulation by promoting the village as a venue for weddings, particularly gay weddings. Many gay couples come to the quaint pastoral village to get 

married and Maroto has become something of a local hero. This documentary shows how easy it can be to adapt to change and lets the audience enter the town like a fly on the wall to watch how life 

goes on in a community where everyone is welcome.

Pituba: an elite neighbourhood in Salvador de Bahía, Brazil. Along the seafront of the city, before reaching the famous Itapuá beach, the Clube Português premises draw our attention. 

Itʼs a sport complex with its main building surrounded by swimming pools, tennis courts, a football pitch and other facilities. The condition of the premises is pitiful: boards and canvas spread all over, 

the grass coming out in between the tiles, the dirty water of the pools, and all you can see has been reused according to its current dwellersʼ needs: 85 families that belong to the Salvador homeless 

movement (MSTS). 

Walking around what used to be a luxury club for white people, we become aware of the origin and reasons of that movement and their living-together rules. In the former party and celebration halls, 

Dadinha and Shirley, inseparable neighbours, have their own cosy place. Rosa, however, prefers the terrace intimacy for her and her children, although it can be wet in the rainy season… Even the

A travel to the northern Portuguese and Galician frontiers carries us to our recent past, the local smuggling and clandestine migration were regular practices on these lands thanks to the proximity of 

the neighbour country. 

In times of repression, with both countries under dictatorial regimes, a big number of portuguese people migrated to France crossing the two frontiers illegally. The women stayed taking care of the 

lands and their childrenʼs education. 

The local smuggling was another way to scape from misery, that is why hundreds of women crossed everyday the frontier in order to buy and sell basic need items, due to the difference of price. This 

commercial exchange between both people bordering the river Minho created a big friendship and a shared story.

hundreds of citizens, as well as the coexistence environment for a small neighbourhood. 

It is one of those bizarre urban spaces where we can see a duality due to its transformation in a valuable area, motionless while it waits for the imminent arrival of modernity.

ANTONI PINENT; antonipinent@gmail.com 

FILM QUARTET / POLYFRAME is conceived as a small cinematographic bomb attempting to question the established definition of frame as the minimum unit of (cinematographic) time by 

dynamiting it in four fragments. 

We propose the destruction (understood as deconstruction) of both Peter Kubelkaʼs traditional metrical theory and the space that resides within the gap between frames as ports of entry into a new 

cinematographic chapter –still in process of evolution-. Such tentative promotes the extinction of (cinematographic) dinosaurs in order to provide the new generations with a new space for their 

actions and freedom in terms of the load such dinosaurs raise by means of their dazzling names.

PROFANATIONS 

Profanations is a three channel video work consisting of appropriation and reconstruction of images and sequences from films by Jules Marey, Pudovkin, Kirsanoff, Eisenstein, Romero, Halpern, 

Kulechov ... from which a series of micro-stories have been created. These stories have been organized according to Campanas De Luz ( Light Bells ), a music composition by Riera Robuste. 

Profanations emerges from an interest in exploring relationships between sound and image with narratives and abstraction, playing with the [dis]articulation found in film narratives 

creating a rupture within narrative and representation.

CARMEN VIVEROS; Máster en Documental Creativo de la Universitat

info@documentalcreativo.edu.es; http://www.documentalcreativo.edu. 

Bombardeo is a visual meditation that explores the concept of war and the contemporary ways to register it. The film takes place in a bombarded town. Nowadays, the ruins are mute witnesses of 

cruelty. 

A second bombing occurs when the surveillance cameras record in real time the events that happen in this ghost town. 

The images are captured from the past and forwarded towards the present. The events take a non-temporal dimension. This transformed portrait sounds familiar to us, like a premonition of a 

desolated future. Indeed we may sometimes feel like in a state of silent war, where suspicion and surveillance prevail. The untiring melody of war is repeated automatically while electronic eyes keep 

on observing us.

Brittany is handsome. Brittany is indolent. Brittany gives himself up to the looks of others and yet he always seems unapproachable. Taking refuge for a few days in a small town in Brittany, he could 

be the traveler of ancient fairy tales for whom the mermaids sing from afar. 

Or is Brittany himself the mermaid? 

The result of a close collaboration between film director Yann Olivier Wicht and writer Claude-Inga Barbey, Brittany is a hymn to impossible love and unfulfilled desire. It is a poetic work of rare 

aesthetic density.

Six persons are naked in an abandonned building. Each one of them holds in their hands a camera, or an alternative way of filming others. During the whole set, the persons chase each other in 

order to escape being filmed or to film other persons. Moreover, four static cameras film the whole scene. Each person is wearing a black skimask. 

Why are we pushed torwards power on images? What is the screen hiding? A subconscious urge, a fake reality? Are these persons human? Havenʼt they been sorted,selected, disguised and 

numbered in order to deliver us this result? Where is all this ridiculous game of lust and power going to? 6 billion people running like chickens without heads dressed like mardis gras that want it now! 

Identity! Anonymity! Reality appears and dissapears with just a click.

Sebastian and Johannes are very proficient as graffiti artists. The two of them have been painting for years and both are active taggers. In addition to this mutual passion, however, they are bound by 

a deep love for each other. No one in their neighbourhood is aware of this, and certainly no one from their scene. When Tika arrives, Sebastian feels more than just a mere attraction to her and 

succumbs to the temptation to express at long last a form of togetherness openly. Feeling betrayed, Johannes leaves, which forces Sebastian to recognise whom he really loves, and he tries 

everything to get Johannes back. The film tells of the difficult balancing act of two young men trying to live their love without betraying what is closest to their heart: painting.

Anchored by an excerpt from the 6th century BC text, the Daodejing (Tao Te Ching), Dogs of Straw is both a portrayal of Taiwan's 2008 presidential election and a meditation on democracy, 

manipulation, and nationalism. 

In Taiwan's fledgling democracy, it is only during a presidential election when the "people exists" as a formless abstract multitude removed from concrete social structures.

With the absence of the gazer's face in Psycho, what would the objects being gazed at turn out to be? Here the pre-arranged plot and climax are nullified, and the boundaries of signs are effaced. 

The endless road does not provide trips of escape, so the bodies that mesh erotically send off no pleasure. The attempt is to deconstruct the fate that the genre movie like Psycho bespeaks, and 

gestures toward another poetic prose.

This is the utilization of snap shots I took during my many trips and day to day life together with the reuse of sound tracks from ʻOn the Roadʼ, my university graduation works. The audios in ʻOn the 

Roadʼ is used as an independent source material being manipulated anew. These audio pieces intermixed with the producerʼs own near-murmuring monologue, trying to recall a non-existing 

conversation. The production intended to dig into the pass. And when these fragmented memories are reconstruction and presented, just how real can that be.

A slowly moving camera captures the interiors of various houses in a village. They are all deserted except one house with a group of young soldiers. They are digging the up the ground. It is unclear 

whether they are exhuming or burying something. The voices of three young men are heard. They repeat, rehearse, memorise a letter to a man named Boonmee. They tell him about a small 

community called Nabua where the inhabitants have abandoned their homes. The wind blows fiercely through the doors, and the windows, bringing with it a swarm of bugs. As evening approaches, 

the sky turns dark. The bugs scatter and the men are silent.

Although, from outside view he seems like he has lost his complete interest to real life, Mehmet has created his own exciting inner world. His exciting western world full of Wild West challenges and 

duellos, is so far way from normal life. And as except Mehmet no one is included in this world, this is understood neither in business nor in couple relations. Consequently this situation makes Mehmet 

be alone and forces him to get some decisions regarding life. But, this exciting world has its own rules and all the things that he will win and loose should be thought carefully, before making the 

choice. Just in Wild West…

On the day of her husband's funeral, old Alma withdraws from the mourners to her own bedroom and remembers her past. She remembers the time when she was married as a child against her will 

and how she tried to commit suicide by drowning herself simply by holding her breath and going under water. Of course she could not kill herself this way, but she has lived her life holding her breath 

nevertheless. Now, after her husband is gone, she can finally laugh about the absurdity of her childish suicidal attempt back then. Alma has become a strong woman with the authority to change 

things.

Ayla, whose dreams are bigger than herself, leaves the house together with a kid (Leyla) who is aware of nothing, trying to recognize life. They pass through the streets of the city and arrive at a 

playground. This short journey portrays the disappointment of a lost childhood through scenes following one another. For Ayla, the reality of merciless life has substituted toys, cotton candies, and 

other childhood images. Ayla seems to dream about being a little girl again, while Leyla keeps on growing up. The audience cannot help but ask: can Aylaʼs story be written again? Is another life 

possible for this little woman? The film not only gives an answer to these questions, it also shocks its audience with a bitter “surprise”.

When I made a film, several years ago, which critically portrayed immigrants in the United States, it was suggested to me that I had no idea of what the immigrant experience was, not having 

experienced it myself. So, I decided to recreate the journey of my great grandparentsʼ immigration to America one hundred years ago, in reverse. I moved to a small village near the Ukrainian city of 

Uman. This series of films reflects the elasticity of time that I found there, with villagers living much as they did at the time when my family left. 

The films work together and stand alone, each examining different aspects of the continuity across time of village life. Kalendar starts with the concept of language acquisition and illustrates the 

meaning of the months of the year in the Ukrainian calendar with images from the natural world. Clay draws a connection between the relationship of the Trypillian people (ca. 3000 BC) to the clay

herself still single, at an age much older than she'd ever wished. She is touched by the gift of a minor; a child she hopes to have; a life she longs to live. Beyond the physicality of the gesture, lies the

Abiyot is one of several African long distance runners, trying to make a living and career in the US. Once he was a promising member of the Ethiopian national team, but two years ago he left his 

country to start a new life. Weekend after weekend, he he races with fellow African athletes in road races, competing over a few hundred dollars of prize money. 

The film follows Abiyot as he prepares for an important race. Every morning at break of dawn he tirelessly trains in the empty streets of his Bronx neighborhood. With every aspect of his daily routine 

centered on his training, his footsteps not only dictate the rhythm of his life, but also become the pervasive rhythm of the film. In phone calls with his family back home, Abiyot tries to convince them 

and himself, that the running will pay off in the long term...

Part city symphony part visual poem, ʻThe Solitary Life of Cranesʼ explores the invisible life of a city, its patterns and hidden secrets, seen through the eyes of crane drivers working high above its 

streets. 

Within the loose structure of a day, starting with the drivers climbing up at dawn and ending with them coming down after a nightshift, the film observes the city as it awakens with a bustle of activity, 

through the lull of midday and the manic rush in the evening, until it calms down again deep into the night. Throughout the film, the drivers share their thoughts and reflections on London and life in 

general.

COMMENTARY

1. The actor Menis Yousry plays Khalil who is not recognised by his ill mother 

2. My father was not recognised by his dying mother because of her dementia 

3. My mother does not recognise the son she once raised 

The reversal of film and commentary is my solution to making a (more) truthful film. The deconstruction of the filmmaking process reveals the limitations of the film form to convey a comprehensive 

meaning.

Black Rain is sourced from images collected by the twin satellite, solar mission, STEREO. Here we see the HI (Heliospheric Imager) visual data as it tracks interplanetary space for solar wind and 

CME's (coronal mass ejections) heading towards Earth. 

Working with STEREO scientists, Semiconductor collected all the HI image data to date, revealing the journey of the satellites from their initial orientation, to their current tracing of the Earthʼs orbit 

around the Sun. Solar wind, CME's, passing planets and comets orbiting the sun can be seen as background stars and the milky way pass by.

It is through our bodies that we perceive and make sense of the world. The experience of sensations in lost limbs provides two contradictory realities simultaneously: the reality of a living limb and of 

its destruction. These are illusions that may represent an attempt at restoration of the sense of unity and cohesion of the self. The Venus de Milo displays body ideals, as well as deviance. Her 

disability is mute, we don't have a vision of a disassembled body, but the Euclidean ideal of it.

SEEING DEEPER INTO MATTER 

GAD HOLLANDER 

gadhollander@gmail.com 


GAD HOLLANDER; gadhollander@gmail.com 

At the launch of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN in Switzerland, Dr Tara Shears claimed: “We will be able to see deeper into matter than ever before.” Although referring to particle physics, her 

words nevertheless evoke metaphysical issues: how “deep” is matter? how can we “see” beyond its surface? how do we describe or measure what we see? Such questions highlight obvious but 

ancient dichotomies between physics and metaphysics, and this film-poem attempts a response by exploring the messianic idea in train stations and the infinite manners of our waiting. One of several 

narrators confesses: “Waiting is an art. At the moment I am merely passing the time, not waiting. Later, when the time is right, I will wait.” We wait & linger & depart & arrive and then… we wait some 

more. Are we practising the virtue of patience or anticipating a redeemer who seems to be forever held in abeyance, perennially postponed? Through our waiting we become a metaphor for 

ourselves: an individual, a group, a tribe, a people, a humanity. And in that process we raise the flags our favourite abstractions: Hope, The Future, Happiness. But regardless of social categories

street scenes of Cuban construction workers - the latter in reference to Chris Markerʼs film Letter from Siberia (1957).Each place maintains some relationship to notions of utopia, however the 

autonomous soundscape of the film is suggestive of underlying conflicts contained within these visions. The work is a joyous exercise in depiction and allusion.

Welcome Stop is a 25-minute narrative film that explores issues of relationship and boundaries among three disabled characters. It follows Morag along the first steps of her path to self-discovery, as 

she dumps her oppressive boyfriend at a motorway service station and hitches a ride with Gerry, a recovering sex-and-love addict. An unconventional road movie, Welcome Stop radiates a sense of 

freedom and adventure. Attempting bold transformations in their lives, the characters donʼt always succeed gracefully, but at least they try. The journey towards self-discovery and the struggle to selfactualize 

are themes that, in Welcome Stop, cross boundaries of race, disability and sexual orientation.

along the road which leads out of the town of Dumfries where they live, passing through deprived urban neighbourhoods, across beautiful bridges and landmarks and out into the surrounding fields, 

towards the village of Holywood. The sole purpose of their dedicated voyage: to buys some sweets. 

Peter is a lonely boy who is bullied at school for eating healthy food. After a particularly bad day, he decides that enough is enough and steals some money from his mumʼs purse: heʼs going to buy 

some sweets, the kind that everybody else is eating! Peter enlists the help of Graʼm, a boy who normally wouldnʼt be seen dead with someone like him but who is easily drawn by the lure of sugar.

Clamp and Grind is a black comedy about an ordinary man with superhero aspirations, a film for anyone who has ever wanted to be a superhero when they grow up. It is a deliciously shot comic strip 

of a film that taps into the near universal hatred of parking enforcers and presents to the world a man with the bumbling but heartfelt intention to be a force for good in the dark and soulless world of 

parking enforcement. With nods towards themes as diverse as DC comics and Britainʼs Fathers for Justice, “Clamp and Grind” is for anyone who has ever wondered if they could cut it in a cape.

Backroad is also a film that makes the audience think about and appreciate what they have.

Gone Fishing is the touching story of a boy and old man coming to terms with bereavement through their shared love of fishing, and the legend of Goliath, the biggest pike ever caught! 

The story is in part autobiographical because, whilst growing up, director Chris Jones and his friends would often attempt to catch the legendary `Oscar the pikeʼ, a fish that according to local myth 

terrorized the lake at the end of his road, the aptly named Blue Lagoon. This was the inspiration behind the legend of `Goliathʼ, the big fish in this even bigger tale.

Weʼve all had “one of those days” – when nothing seems to go right, when life just seems to be dealing you one poor hand after another. Unfortunately for Howard Whittam, that day is Judgment Day. 

Howard and his wife Jean have lived a very ordinary life. Theyʼve never taken drugs, overtaken on the inside lane, or run naked through a graveyard. An unkind observer might even say they were 

dull. But somewhere deep down, these law abiding English suburbanites believed that one day, divine justice would reward them for their propriety. But when Judgment Day does arrive, itʼs a 

logistical disaster. Too many people, not enough staff. So when Howard finds that due to a clerical error, he has been mistaken for the genocidal maniac Vlad the Impaler, he begins a downward 

spiral into a never ending abyss of paper work and mindless officialdom.One of Those Days is a salutary tale that warns that itʼs better to make the best of the life you have in the here and now 

because you never quite know how things might turn out in the life to come.

Driven by Stravinsky's music from 'The Firebird' - THE LIFE CLASS - is a contemporary narrative which uses dance as a metaphor for life within a sterile corporate world. A series of bizarre 

characters enact a strange collision of different worlds linked by a wolf who inhabits both.

A road movie without a car "Crimson" follows the episodic, existential odyssey of mixed-race skate kid Kyle. An idealist in search of an ideology, we follow him as he journeys through the city 

desperate for human connection. Meditative in tone, with a touch of humour, the film examines issues of cultural isolation, Americanisation and spiritual emptiness.

The film ʻRome by nightʼ depicts a journey over the human body and beyond. Accompanied by an evocative piano suite, a strangely familiar landscape that resembles the universe, unfolds. Having 

been shot entirely on the human body, the film seeks vastness in the closest detail, the infinite in the finite. In its play of scale and perception nothing is what it seems to be – or only that.

1942. The voice of the Fuhrer echoes around the streets of Paris. On a balcony Hitler gives an impassioned speech to the crowd. From a window across the road Franz trains a rifle on the Nazi 

leaderʼs forehead. Acrack of gunfire. 

Through the eyes of Franz, we witness an act which changes the course of history, is this really happening or perhaps the fabric of memory is mixing with the fabric of time itself?

Star Games is a visual narrative of a surreal galactic ballet that explains the origins of stars. The inhabitants of a futuristic metropolis train in their hundreds to contest in the Star Games. Patrolling 

zeppelins select individual gymnasts with a UFO-styled light beam. The gymnasts are pulled up towards the sky to perform a beautifully organic ballet before they dissolve into starlights. 

The filmʼs emotive meaning is that each star symbolizes a past human life. Its message is that human beings are never alone but embedded, just like stars, in a community of others celebrating life 

with each other.

Carlo Roda is from the costal town of La Spezia in northern Italy. Over the past 30 years he has collected thousands of films, from Italian Neo Realist classics to Hollywood horrors. Having once 

trawled shut-down cinemas and rubbish dumps for forgotten gems, his lifeʼs work now sits in a damp, dusty warehouse. This is the story of an incredible film collection and its cynical owner, whose 

world is turned upside down as a group of local film lovers try to rescue, restore and bring these pieces of cinematic history back to their former glory.

PHIL COLLINS; info@shadylaneproductions.co.uk; Sinisa Mitrovic 

Phil Collins' zasto ne govorim srpski (na srpskom) is a short film which investigates the relationship between language and memory in ethnically divided Kosovo. 

Using the communityʼs complicated relationship with the Serbo-Croat language as a reflection on its history and identity, the film collects the testimonies of a number of contributors – from politicians, 

intellectuals and public figures to ʻordinaryʼ people – recounting in Serbian the reasons why they no longer speak the language. Shot in black-and-white 16 mm film and colour digital video, zasto ne 

govorim srpski (na srpskom) weaves at moments unbearably intimate close-ups with an intricately constructed soundtrack in a fragmented and affecting panorama of the countryʼs recent past. 

Punctuated by hesitation and the faltering recall of a discarded language, the contributions range from attempts at historicisation to personal accounts of trauma and loss.

The world collides in Chungking Mansions (Hong Kong). As perhaps the most diversely populated building on earth it is a paradise of multi-culturalism and low-end globalisation, uniquely belonging to 

no one and everyone. For years the building has been notorious both as a refuge for petty criminals and illegal immigrants, and for its unsanitary living conditions. Yet it exists as a perfect example of 

a city as an organic mega-structure, flexible enough to fulfill every need from religion to water supply, while providing an alternative to conventional space, culture and time. What is fascinating here, 

besides all the shortcomings, is that Chungking somehow succeeds, continuously evolving to accommodate the hopes of those that find themselves drawn there. 

My film Chungking Dream takes us into the heart of this Pandora's box, isolating characters and scenes from the myriad of options that exist layer on layer in the building, taking us into their most

"Reconsidering »The New Industrial Parks Near Irvine, California« by Lewis Baltz, 1974" revisits one of the industrial structures Baltz documented from the outside and depicts the interior setting of a 

metal workshop within an 11minutes tracking shot. During exactly this time the 1974 book version is been reconsidered from back to front, each turning page a montage within the continuous 16mm 

black and white footage. The progress within the interview with J.R. Billington, a company owner in this building since 19 years, does not only discuss the socio-economical situation in military 

manufacturing in Orange County in the 1980's and today. He also hints out that the representation of this building is not accurate, the image for whatever reason in all three book editions mirrored. In 

this sense the film investigates for the first time a mistake in the representational character of Baltz landmark “New Topographics” book, re-published in two more editions with the same mistake.

Highway Home is a contemplative, static study of an unlikely landmark in an unlikely place. Normally only glimpsed in passing, Stott Hall Farm, a cottage built in 1737, floats islandlike in the middle of 

the M62 in West Yorkshire, whilst cars and lorries thunder past on both sides. Despite the farm seemingly being a monument to stubbornness, the urban myth being that the farmer refused to leave 

when the motorway was built in the 1970s, the truth of the story is that the east- and westbound carriageways could not meet due to the lie of the land, and the motorway had to be parted around the 

cottage to avoid landslips. http://www.blanchepictures.com/films/highwayhome.htm

EMILY MODE; NA; emode@mac.com 

The word “qualia” refers to the internal and subjective aspects of sense perceptions arising from the stimulation of the senses. Qualia Diaries is a multi-layered conceptual exploration into the psyche 

and the "experiential," a voyage to another place. Referencing Lewis Carrollʼs “Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass,” the film deals with multiple self-realities 

engendered by prescription drugs. Mode provides a compelling portrait of personal trauma, detailing the severe mental and physical confusion that began with a seizure.

Since the end of the Cold War, military spending cuts have closed hundreds of bases across the United States. Many that were not closed were substantially downsized, such as March Air Force 

Base in Riverside County, California. In a careful arrangement of landscapes, characters and texts, COMMON GROUND investigates the way economics have shaped the earth there, tracing its 

marks from the concrete to the ineffable. An inquiry into the way capitalism consumes history, the resulting document questions our relationship with the past, designs on the future, and notions of 

progress in today's world.

In the vast inland wasteland surrounding Los Angeles, at a point where the accelerating expanse of suburban sprawl meets the Mojave Desert, The Garden observes the inner life of a young man as 

he labours anonymously in tract housing developments. With slow and sensuous precision, the evolution of the landscape is played out upon the face of this young worker - a face arrested by 

loneliness and apprehension. In the mundane and in fleeting glimpses of radiant beauty, we witness this man and the world he creates bind together, each half-formed and resting upon the Earth.

original - a naked body in repose is the landscape and backdrop for the antics of a live insect. But there is a slight twist--this body is female-to-male transgendered. Comparable to its inspiration, Fly

Based on a completely improvised performance, "Terrifying Blankness" examines the dilemma of choice. Paralyzed by the fear of making the wrong move, the two protagonists find themselves either 

trapped on the wheel of desire or else trying to escape from the fear of choice entirely by withdrawing into an empty blankness. Lemons, snakes, and swans are among the curious images which play 

a part in this existential drama. Will they finally locate the inner voice which will guide them in their decisions?

An experimental film structured as a kind of specialized playground in which highly representational images are freed from their duties. The images run free in their new lightness, making 

unforeseeable, promiscuous connections with each other and developing an inexplicable, non-parsable plot line that runs along with all the urgency of any good thriller.

enter the world of love. They experience the sweetness of love, and the stillness of love and after time they experience the death of love. With the shattered illusions of love comes a sacrifice and a 

separation. The lovers divide and each experience a symbolic death that frees and transforms them, releasing them from each otherʼs heart strings into the future.

PAREIDOLIA 

MARIA PETSCHNIG 


“The face is (…) an artificial and political construct from which everything considered obvious, everything which is apparently natural must be removed “ 

(Ulrich Raulff). 

In film, the face rather than the body, is usually where an occurring emotion is revealed. At the same time the face also acts as identification—small, distinctive features suffice to identify the subject, 

or wearer. For her new video Maria Petschnig uses these concepts, but only to shuffle and rearrange them. The filmʼs title PAREIDOLIA refers to a psychological phenomenon, which involves a 

vague and random stimulus which is perceived as a meaningful or significant sign. Common examples of pareidolia include images of figures in clouds, subliminal messages on records played in

Spectrology- 16mm, 11 minutes, sound, 2009 

A Film By Kerry Laitala 

In 1646, Kircher published Ars Magna Lucis et Umbrae, on the subject of the display of images on a screen using an apparatus similar to the magic lantern as developed by Christian Huygens. Using 

this apparatus as a tool to enchant, spellbind and spook, Paul de Philipsthal, Robertson and other conjurors dazzled spectators with their unique bag of 18th Century tricks, raising up the spirits of 

recently deceased and reminding the viewer of the “fate that awaits us all”. “Spectrology” calls upon conjurors of the past and their secret repertoire of magical devices to simulate a modern rendition 

of the phantasmagoria. The medium of cinema is harnessed to entice the viewer and ruminate on the mesmerizing presence of various illusions made anew.

Recitation/Reception 

The social conditions of communication are constantly in the process of resignifying their structure and cultural context. This work features images of myself being broadcasted to a baby 

monitor, attempting to penetrate the tele-visual flesh of the screen in order to communicate with the viewer. The processing of the body image is the breakdown of the digital fabric of the video, unable 

to refresh, being stuck in a state in between time and information. As such, the work speaks to the necessity of versioning, the updating of codes and language in order to break from the recursive 

nature of both the digital and psychological loop.

Phrenology investigates the relationship between memory, writing and the perception of space, though writings created by incarcerated women at Bedford Hills Correctional Facility in NY, USA. The 

camera floats through different environments that serve as visual analogies to the writing, sequenced chronologically as they might appear in the life of the writer, accompanied by an experimental 

sound track composed by Paul Geluso. Visual effects by Enrique Maitland underscore the elusive nature of memory that forms the ephemeral basis of the womenʼs identity. 

Initially women in the workshop related only to spaces from their past, then slowly grew to acknowledge their present surroundings and the possibility for future changes of environs. Women reading 

their work include: Rosemary Thompson, Sherain Bryant, Miriam Lopez, Connie Leung, Renee Mckinney and Ashanti Booker.

An isolated environment off the North Fork of Long Island, Great Gull Island, becomes the destination -- both literal and figurative -- for our narrator's seafaring voyage. This is a tone poem, in which

animated 'dust' as it emerges from and descends into a chalky white pool. While the non-narrative short film can viewed as the original "man" being created, there are also references to sciencefiction 

and the head takes on a ghostly ethereal quality...like an alien being from another planet. Influences of David Lynch as well as the repetitious music of minimalist American composers Philip

"The Great Divide" is the story of post-apocalyptic survivors who worship the music from a single vinyl record – their only relic from past civilization. 

In the 2006 Whitney Biennial, Francesco Vezzoli premiered "Trailer for a Remake of Gore Vidalʼs 'Caligula'." There was never meant to be an actual remake of "Caligula"; his intention was to 

challenge viewer expectation of seeing a film with Hollywood production value and actors in a non-mainstream context. I like the endeavor of challenging expectation, especially in the framework of 

cinema standards. I actually watch more trailers than I do feature films. The trailer has long been a genre itself, and as an artist/filmmaker, I am interested in the intersection of popular film and art. 

"The Great Divide" is not a trailer – it is a short film, constructed using the conventions of the trailer form.

ʻMiss Chinatownʼ takes place one night in a fancy hotel suite in New York. Xiao Mei, a beauty pageant contestant from China, is spending the night with Johnny, her sugar daddy. Johnny drinks and 

flirts whilst Xiao Mei practices her stage moves and teases him. The pageant is a week away. He wants one thing – her body. She has one thing on her mind- the upcoming pageant. 

Meanwhile Jay, her young boyfriend turns up uninvited at the hotel lobby. Alarmed, she runs down to get rid of him with an unconvincing lie. She goes back upstairs to Johnny and his inevitable 

desires. Later, as Johnny slumbers and Xiao Mei stares out at the city lights, Jay suddenly turns up at the room forcing a confrontation. 

After a scuffle, in which young Jay receives a bruised head and ego, Johnny devises an ʻarrangementʼ that might satisfy all of their needs. The two young lovers contemplate the perverse and 

unexpected choices they have now got to make.

One man's determination to track down and dispatch with a rare woodpecker wreaking havoc on his house puts him on the warpath. What he discovers in his pursuit is an ecology of sight and sound 

that defies every natural property he's ever trusted in--and an environment far more surreal than he'd bargained for. Sapsucker interweaves bird footage from the University of Cornell's Lab of 

Ornithology with live action footage to forge a delirious vision of ultimate justice, raising questions of the fundamental faith we place in our corporeal senses and the ephemeral laws of nature and 

property possession we cultivate to make them real.

Baltimore's Beach House commissioned the Masses in the fall of 2008 to create the video for the band's gorgeous single, "Used to Be," so a half dozen operatives hired an old-model Pontiac and an 

under-used old Route 66 motel and set about making something mysterious and beautiful. 

The result: director Matt Amato's shattered-monocle drama of the sun, locomotives, a lost motel, a pink blouse, and the music -- a classic sing-song pop tune. Beach House's Victoria Legrand and 

Alex Scally roam the California desert trying to come to terms with ... something. The video not only captured a magical moment, but, even better, created a lasting bond with two remarkable artists.

“ALL NIGHTMARE LONG” is the latest visual experiment from acclaimed rock band METALLICA and directed by ROBERT SCHOBER (aka Roboshobo) for The Revolver Film Co. The piece is a 9minute 

long narrative that uses four decades worth of 'lost' Soviet footage to uncover a conspiracy of epic proportions. A mysterious organism found in the 1930s at Tunguska appears to have healing 

powers that will bring an end to death. But by the opening of The Cold War, the organism's corpse-reviving properties are reinvented as a means of closing the gap between the USSR and a newly 

nuclear- endowed USA: Airborne spore attacks, zombie uprisings, and corpse disposing robots are all bit players in this complicated and epic plot.

Life has been cruel to Sally Grimshaw and she has had enough. Itʼs time to end it all. In a last ditch effort to save herself she calls a suicide hotline and is persuaded to come in and see one of their 

mental health counselors – Mr. Vincent. 

But Mr. Vincent has no intention of talking her out of killing herself. In fact, he runs a service that matches suicidal clients with potential hits. I mean, if youʼre going to kill yourself you might as well 

take out some human scum at the same time. At first she refuses, but life is never going to be kind to Sally and she finally agrees – sheʼs in.

Description: Between 1969 and 1972 NASA astronauts left 12 Hasselblad 500C film bodies on the moon, bringing only the film back with them as a way to cut down on unnecessary excess weight. If 

you believe in that sort of thing. 

Statement: A high-speed camera can be used to replicate the gravity of the moon. Doing so invokes questions concerning the overall role that duplicity plays in media. Low gravity and slow motion 

have in common the fact that they make movement fluid and beautiful.

After three long months of studying and traveling in China, Josh Bradley is excited to be home and canʼt wait to see his girlfriend, Jessica, whom he plans to propose to. 

After Joshʼs brother, Kevin, drops him off at a local State Hostel where Josh will be staying temporarily until he finds something more permanent, Josh has a run in with the Hostelʼs ill-mannered, 

Chinese manager, Wen Tsai. Josh seems to have caught Wen off guard and Wen makes Josh feel a little less than welcome. 

But despite Wen and his irritable attitude, Josh stays in high spirits and hurries to his room so he can call Jessica to make arrangements for them to meet and for him to pop the big questions. 

But things begin to go sour when Jessica answers less enthusiastically than Josh had anticipated and she isnʼt feeling “well” enough to come visit her boyfriend whom she hasnʼt seen in three 

months.

JOHN CAMPBELL; Echo Media; john_echo_media@yahoo.com 

The work of German photographer Alexander Lauterwasser is presented in the context of Cymatics, the study of vibration and its effects on form-making. 

A brief history of Cymatic research is presented starting with the sound-figure experiments of Ernst Chladni in the 18th century and continuing with the research of Hans Jenny in the 1960s. 

Alexander Lauterwasser is shown continuing the research that Chladni and Jenny began with his custom-built equipment that enables him to produce beautiful geometric patterns in substances 

ranging from sand to water. 

The connection of sound to organic patterns in nature and the philosophical implications are also addressed.

Me Broni Ba is a lyrical portrait of hair salons in Kumasi, Ghana. The tangled legacy of European colonialism in Africa is evoked in images of women practicing hair braiding on discarded white baby 

dolls from the West. The film unfolds through a series of vignettes, set against a child's story of migrating from Ghana to the United States. The film uncovers the meaning behind the Akan term of 

endearment, me broni ba, which means “my white baby.”

MOONLIGHT SERENADE 

MARIA ANTELMAN 

antelman_m@yahoo.com 


MARIA ANTELMAN; antelman_m@yahoo.com 

Moonlight Serenade is a semiotic enigma, comprising of found lunar images, taken in the late 60s. Often oblique, yet utilized with the distinct intention of recounting the mysteries of nature (human 

and other), the images convey a sense of odd beauty. As in previous Antelman works, the disjointed narrative is paired with an odd soundtrack that gives resonance to a notion of chaos. In the case 

of Moonlight Serenade, these arid moonscapes are meshed with a stream of random transmissions of shortwave radio recordings. These inane sounds have been allegedly attributed to military 

espionage. Spy theorists have claimed these signal transmissions communicate encrypted information about the enemy. In this context, the viewerʼs initial unease gives way to a sense of imminent 

danger, cultivated largely through the loosening of linguistic barriers.

The elevator of a commercial building is the reduced space where “WHAT GOES UP” takes place. There are a series of characters that get into it, men and women, who pretend to be something they 

are not. Pretending in front of “others” that they donʼt know and with whom they have to share this uncomfortable place where they can even notice each otherʼs breathing. An atmosphere filled with 

silences. Looks that mistakenly cross. Intimacies that are uncovered. Perfumes that reveal emotions and not so pleasant smells that no one takes credit for. “WHAT GOES UP” is a reflection of a 

world where what you are worth is determined by your appearance, causing the weakest people to have distorted images of themselves.
