Sinopsis
A person spends most of their life mourning the things they have lost, unable to move on. They frequent a silent but helpful medium and embark on a spiritual journey where they linger among their past lives.
Siete chicas de instituto ven sus vacaciones chafadas cuando su profesor (Kiyohiko Ozaki) tiene que cancelar el viaje que tenía planeado realizar con ellas. Las cosas marchan incluso algo peor para Oshare (Kimiko Ikegami), una de las chicas, ya que recientemente su padre le ha presentado su nueva madastra (Haruko Wanibuchi), lo que no le ha hecho demasiada gracia. Mirando un álbum de fotos, Oshare se encuentra con la foto de boda de su madre a quien se la ve acompañada de su hermana (Yoko Minamida) quien nunca llegó a casarse ya que su prometido murió en la guerra. Oshare se pone en contacto con su tía y ésta la invita a ella y a sus amigas a pasar las vacaciones en su mansión en el campo. Cuando el grupo de chicas se presentan en la mansión, allí las recibe la tía de Oshare en sillas de ruedas y medio ciega. Muy pronto las chicas descubren que la mansión tiene vida propia.
A musical horror story about two young women who are stalked through a shopping mall by a cannibal. He follows them home, and here the victims become the aggressors.
Seemingly at random, the wings and other bits of moths and insects move rapidly across the screen. Most are brown or sepia; up close, we can see patterns within wings, similar to the veins in a leaf. Sometimes the images look like paper cutouts, like Matisse. Green objects occasionally appear. Most wings are translucent. The technique makes them appear to be stuck directly to the film.
A psychadelic mental breakdown occurs. The lights are bright, the colours vivid, the images blurred, the mind absent.
Un hombre se casa con una mujer, y ésta le es infiel. El hombre, por venganza, la asesina, siendo condenado a muerte... Aclamada película checa por su innovador sistema narrativo: todo el film está rodado al revés, comenzando por final y terminando con el principio, e incluso los diálogos están pronunciados a la inversa.
In Manhattan's Central Park, a film crew directed by William Greaves is shooting a screen test with various pairs of actors. It's a confrontation between a couple: he demands to know what's wrong, she challenges his sexual orientation. Cameras shoot the exchange, and another camera records Greaves and his crew. Sometimes we watch the crew discussing this scene, its language, and the process of making a movie. Is there such a thing as natural language? Are all things related to sex? The camera records distractions - a woman rides horseback past them; a garrulous homeless vet who sleeps in the park chats them up. What's the nature of making a movie?
A creation myth realized in light, patterns, images superimposed, rapid cutting, and silence. A black screen, then streaks of light, then an explosion of color and squiggles and happenstance. Next, images of small circles emerge then of the Sun. Images of our Earth appear, woods, a part of a body, a nude woman perhaps giving birth. Imagery evokes movement across time. Part of the Dog Star Man series of experimental films.
Archive footage from 2006 - 2010 of a young girl growing up during the ages of four to eight. Only fragments of what is remembered exists. Words from a transgender man float to the surface as fleeting memories go on.
Experimental film consisting of a single static shot of the Empire State Building from early evening until nearly 3 am the next day.
After a catastrophic global war, a young filmmaker awakens in the carnage and seeks refuge in the only other survivor: an eccentric, ideologically opposed figure of the United States military. Together, they brave the toxic landscape in search of safety... and answers.
Consistent stylistic-thematic structures link and merge throughout the bewildering event chain. The distinction between organic forms and human artifacts is blurred by the visual style which is enigmatic without being ambiguous.
A person spends most of their life mourning the things they have lost, unable to move on. They frequent a silent but helpful medium and embark on a spiritual journey where they linger among their past lives.
A journey to an unknown star, a children's theatre play, an untalented writer and the fear of becoming the worst version of oneself. A mixture of live-action footage and animated scenes. A stream of (un)conscious stereotypes.
Single frame exposures of words.
A young woman is fed up with the usual consumer's television and begins to make her own television, or more correctly, closevision. She is now a reporter who wanders around Berlin with her camera and 'telecasting apparatus' on her back. Her livingroom has been transformed into a studio and here the different programs are assembled and aired: statements, interviews, realistic and phantastic programs.
PUTREFIXION: A Video of Nina Temich is the first feature to be entirely filmed on a 360 camera. Director David Torres utilizes the disorienting nature of a 360 lens to transform Mexico City, accentuate the ritual of dance, and open a new chapter of in-world-camera narratives. As Nina, model and dancer Dalia Xiuhcoatl controls the space and movement of the camera, giving this portrait of a young woman's brush with the supernatural a mesmerizing feminine energy.
A human-like Creature, emerging from the ancient depths of the Norwegian forest, ventures towards suburbia. The local inhabitants react in different ways to its unannounced presence.
La trama se centrará en un director de cine obsesivo durante la década de los 70. Se conoce que habrá metacine y que la fotografía tendrá un toque experimental mezclando el blanco y negro con el color dentro de un mismo fotograma. Song Kang-ho e Im Soo-jung interpretarán personajes fuera de la película, y Jeon Yeo-been interpretará personajes en la película.
A short film by Bryce Hodgson.
Animator Ryan Larkin does a visual improvisation to music performed by a popular group presented as sidewalk entertainers. His take-off point is the music, but his own beat is more boisterous than that of the musicians. The illustrations range from convoluted abstractions to caricatures of familiar rituals. Without words.
