0.0Filmed over a period of 3 years, this video work is a meditation on the borderline of the river Tejo, between Marvila and Barreiro. A psychogeographic piece that seeks out a feeling of doubt, inertia, and waiting. "Two sides, along the boundary line All the weight of the water above Metal arms extended to the heavens As if the sky was tilting to meet them And those giants again; Four by four . . . . all in a line, up against the tide."

9.0A New York film and at the same time the study of a young man suffering from an obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The Berlin filmmaker Oliver Sechting (37) and his co-director Max Taubert (23) travel to New York with the idea of documenting the art scene there. However, the project is quickly overshadowed by Oliver's OCD, and the two directors fall prey to a conflict that becomes the central theme of their film. Encounters with such artists as film directors Tom Tykwer (Cloud Atlas), Ira Sachs (Keep the Lights On), and Jonathan Caouette (Tarnation) or the transmedia artist Phoebe Legere seem more and more to resemble therapy sessions. At last, Andy Warhol-Superstar Ultra Violet succeeds in opening a new door for Oliver.

The beauty of the seasons is interspersed with a look at the earth as a planet, the sun as a star, and the human quest to understand the relationship between the two.
