Ashes in the Thicket(1998)

足洗邸の住人たち。 OAD(ja)

Ineffable(pt)

Before time, before the world, there were only two—one made of fire, the other of ice. Lost in the void, they were never meant to meet, until the wind, in its fury, brought them together for an instant. In the clash of light and shadow, an impossible love was born—one as burning as it was destructive. But the universe does not forgive those who defy its order, condemning them to spin forever, always close, never together. Yet, in rare moments, when fate falls asleep, Sun and Moon touch—and the sky, in reverence, darkens to watch.

Solar Beats(fr)

Walking towards the fire. In a ceaseless stream of light, people, landscapes and objects lead us to mysterious regions. French filmmaker Patrick Bokanowski’s work is hard to classify - and all the richer for it. Together with his wife Michèle, whose musique concrète compositions form the basis of the sound design, Bokanowski offers a prolonged, dense and visually visceral experience of the kind that is rare in cinema today. Difficult to define and locate, its strangeness is quite unique.

Hasan Everywhere(en)

Hasan Everywhere is an animation which broaches the subtlety of a relationship between a man and a woman who bear the passports of enemies, to sympathetically deal with the subjects of death, grief, lost opportunity; but mostly it seeks to demonstrate the possibility of friendship triumphing over the deepest of rifts between two people. In that regard it is most unusual among the standard fare of animated shorts.
