Of Some Animals and their Movements in their Respective Habitats6mn b/w stéréo 2007 Spainby Toni CrabbThe film studies the movements of different animals in the spaces they inhabit – normally spaces shared with humans – in order to question how constructed habitat sets up, or is itself configured by, our relationships with others. A range of different habitats is exhibited, going from the cat in a domestic environment, to a caged zoo animal, to city pigeons.self-productionself-distributionclip Back to the Humanity4mn b/w stéréo 2007 Finlandby Seppo Renvall"Back to the Humanity" is a video about industrialisation, the all-mighty power of the machines and the destructivity which can't be separated from them. We see car crashes, bullets shots etc. in extremely slow motion, with Zape Leppänens music, based on the sounds of steam engines. Images are originally shot by the inventor Harri Vanhala with the special camera that can shoot 10 000 frames/sec.self-productiondistribution : Fixc Coopclip La invasión10mn b/w stéréo 2008 Spainby Gonzalo De Pedro AmatriaThey are coming.self-productionself-distributionclip eau libre2mn46 color & b/w stéréo 2009 USAby Dan NadanerIn search of the Real, at the moment of greatest exertion. The half-heard sounds, the flashes of memory. Not knowing whether you are going forward or back. The momentary sense of being in a flow that connect many times and places.self-productionself-distributionclip The irrationality of the square root of two4mn23 color stéréo 2008 Brazilby Henrique RoscoeA symphony in four movements: meeting, dating, arguing and leaving.self-productionself-distributionclip Yellow Fever6mn color stéréo 2008 Canadaby Frédérick MaheuxCaustic audiovisual bombing against the erotic flesh of exotic degradation. Frontal collision between Japanese pornography and European medical imagination. The ecstasy of colonization and the military torture garden. self-productionself-distributionclip The Age Of Enlightenment2mn20 color stéréo 2008 Franceby Samuel BesterGetting focused.self-productionself-distributionclip Neige3mn16 color stéréo 2007 Franceby Agnès QuilletI had this video material called white noise. The music by Alfred Schittke gave me a story. The film was born.self-productionself-distributionclip Seven kilometers from here7mn45 color stéréo 2008 Argentinaby Nicolás Testoni & Marcelo Díaz & Ricardo De Armas"Seven kilometres from here" is an experimental portrait of Ingeniero White, a coastal town in the south of Argentina. In the last decades, this port has changed dramatically since a large petrochemical complex was built there. In this work we try to establish a connection between old domestic films, and industrial sounds recently recorded. Silent Super 8 movies, on one hand; digital hi-fi capture of engines roar and workers wishpers, on the other; and between them, the chance to process the audiovisual archive for a future memory.self-productionself-distributionclip Nature Morte -Still Life4mn30 b/w stéréo 2007 Finlandby Juha Van IngenThe silent actors of a natural history museum turn into a fluid and semi abstract flow of shapes and patterns. The preserved beasts are brought to life by the camera movements to perform an ambient dreamlike dance. The sound track comes from a world beyond the museum doors. The looped sentimental sound of a Bollywood B-film star creates a link to the modern world where emotions and moments are preserved on to film and hard disks.self-productiondistribution : Fixc Coopclip Sleeping Flowers1mn color stéréo 2008 Franceby Yoko FukushimaKaleidoscope consisted by waste elements of our body forms intimately poetic motives, in evolving in the zone of visibility bounded by a light circle, as a symbol of the perpetual cycle of life. Feigning the phantasmagorical and spangled image like a dream, glorifying the rubbishes of our organic body.self-productionself-distributionclip Impatience2mn20 color stéréo 2008 Franceby Christophe Guérin"I just ordered a new dress from London… Ihope you don’t mind."self-productionself-distributionclip The Motions of Bodies4mn color & b/w stéréo 2009 USAby Ann SteuernagelA found footage film inspired by Galileo’s experiments with gravity.self-productionself-distributionclip
