Surreal environments take center stage in this visual odyssey.

The Meeting(uk)

An alien decides to find out how much humans actually know about extra-terrestrials. The directorial debut of Mykhailo Titov, a master of chimerical animation of the 80s, is based on the story of the Ukrainian science fiction writer Volodymyr Zayets.

The Ogre's Garden(en)

This short piece is somewhat romantic, despite its title. We do see the ogre however. He inverts himself into the action throughout the film. As usual, the action is partly symbolic, partly surreal.

An existential odyssey through the unconscious.

Alice(cs)

A quiet young English girl named Alice finds herself in an alternate version of her own reality after chasing a white rabbit. She becomes surrounded by living inanimate objects and stuffed dead animals, and must find a way out of this nightmare - no matter how twisted or odd that way must be. A memorably bizarre screen version of Lewis Carroll’s novel "Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland".

What Happens In Your Brain If You See a German Word Like...?(de)

A surreal trip into the world of an extremely long german word.

Allegro non troppo(it)

The film is a parody of Disney's Fantasia, though possibly more of a challenge to Fantasia than parody status would imply. In the context of this film, "Allegro non Troppo" means Not So Fast!, an interjection meaning "slow down" or "think before you act" and refers to the film's pessimistic view of Western progress (as opposed to the optimism of Disney's original).

Great is the Mystery of Godliness(de)

When an intergalactic space god shows up in the form of a German potato and turns your teeth into drunken, blathering idiots… it’s time to take the chicken and hit the fire escape. That is… unless you really dig having your domicile over run by dirty pots and pans.
