eeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeee(fr)

To free their poetic minds, Guillaume Marin and Ariane Caron-Lacoste have created, through an audio testimony, a video poem where verses on the screen act as counterpoints, initiations, and endings. The rich visuals answer the speech to constitute its body.

The Uptown(en)

A vacant theater still has “screenings” of its own: apparitions that come to life on a curved screen without anyone to see them, creating spectacular scenes without any projectors at all.

STRATA INCOGNITA(es)

Lux Æterna: The Art of Filmmaking(en)

An experimental shortfilm in line with "Lux Æterna", showcasing the footage from Cecil B. DeMille's "King of the Kings".

Rhythm(ja)

A comfortable rhythm composed of light and shadow. Director Ogino-style absolute movie which freely manipulates geometric figures.

The Clock's Cruel Necessity(he)

Sometimes it seems that the past is more present than the present itself. The film unfolds the story of a couple forced to break apart, mixing video and still images. Will the hero put the past behind him or cling to the unreachable past?

The End(et)

It is said that if a man is fading away, he sees his life running quickly in front of his eyes. What does a hundred-year old film strip see before it gives way to digital vehicles? Does it see broken frames, scratched film stock or something else? This is a film about time and its ephemeral nature.

Three Walls and a Window(en)

A nuclear family sits in front of the television. The phone rings.

An Uncountable Number of Threads(en)

Travel films have an established format with their own conventions, history and baggage. It is a medium that has all too often sought to control, define and dictate perceptions of ”other” places. Comprised of footage shot while travelling on group excursions across Russia in 2019, An Uncountable Number of Threads is an attempt to draw out the ethical restrictions of a travelogue, while questioning how (and why) to make one. At times there is an awkward tourist-gaze, aware of its outsider position. But as a self-reflexive work that considers its own creation, it ultimately unravels, as the artist rationalises themselves out of a particular way of working, inviting the viewer into their uncertainty.

The Psychedelic Experience(en)

Experimental movie, where a man comes home and experiences LSD. His kaleidoscopic visions follow, with readings inspired by the Tibethan Book of the Dead.
