Sinopsis
Andy Warhol's experimental reconstruction of the assassination of the President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, which serves as his critical commentary on the way the media presented the tragic event.
El fiscal de Nueva Orleans, Jim Garrison, reabrió el caso del asesinato del presidente de los Estados Unidos John F. Kennedy y presentó cargos contra algunas personas. Después de entrevistar a numerosos testigos de Dallas y a personas relacionadas con los hechos, mantuvo la tesis de que el magnicidio fue fruto de una conspiración en la que podrían haber intervenido el FBI, la CIA y el propio vicepresidente Lindon B. Johnson.
Película sobre la exprimera dama estadounidense Jacqueline Kennedy, centrada en los días inmediatamente posteriores al asesinato de JFK, en Dallas, el 22 de noviembre del año 1963.
En un país regido por una corrupta democracia, donde el gobierno utiliza a la Policía y al Ejército para erradicar cualquier amenaza izquierdista, un diputado de la oposición es asesinado en plena calle cuando acababa de presidir un mitin de carácter pacifista. De la investigación del caso se encarga un joven magistrado consciente de que se trata de un crimen político cometido por dos sicarios a sueldo. Al mismo tiempo, un ambicioso periodista se servirá de métodos poco ortodoxos para acumular pruebas que inculpen a varios militantes de un partido de extrema derecha, los cuales, a su vez, atribuyen la responsabilidad del atentado a altos cargos de la policía y del ejército.
Mockumentary experimental film, which shows one day in the life of a young man. The action takes place on the Day of Soviet Cosmonautics, April 12, one of the last years of the USSR. Outside the window, it is gradually getting warmer, the onset of spring is felt, promising hope for the possibility of changes in the country. The hero of the film is fond of space. The young man, who idolizes Gagarin, is engaged in reconstruction, making the uniform in which the cosmonaut walked in the prime of his glory. Our hero is also a film enthusiast. He makes films with stories of space flights and shows them to his friends. The film is stylized as amateur films of the 1980s and was shot on a 16-mm color film made by the company" Svema", made in the Soviet Union. The quality of this film allows the viewer to fully immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the time of the film, which is dedicated to Soviet cosmonautics and Edward D. Wood Jr.

A young man and his dog encounter a sinister force while on a walk through the woods.
A visual representation, in four parts, of one man's internalization of "The Divine Comedy." Hell is a series of multicolored brush strokes against a white background; the speed of the changing images varies. "Hell Spit Flexion," or springing out of Hell, is on smaller film stock, taking the center of the frame. Montages of color move rapidly with a star and the edge of a lighted moon briefly visible. Purgation is back to full frame; blurs of color occasionally slow down then freeze. From time to time, an image, such as a window or a face, is distinguishable for a moment. In "existence is song," colors swirl then flash in and out of view. Behind the vivid colors are momentary glimpses of volcanic activity.
An experimental film comprised of Stanley Kubrick's THE SHINING played forwards and backwards at the same time on the same screen, creating bizarre juxtapositions and startling synchronicities
This hand-painted work is easily the most minutely detailed ever given to me to do, for it traces (as best I'm able) the hypnagogic after-effect of psychological cathexis as designed by Freud in his first (and unfinished) book on the subject - "Toward a Scientific Psychology." (SB)

This short film made by László Moholy-Nagy is based on the shadow patterns created by his Light-Space Modulator, an early kinetic sculpture consisting of a variety of curved objects in a carefully choreographed cycle of movements. Created in 1930, the film was originally planned as the sixth and final part of a much longer work depicting the new space-time.
A tilted figure, consisting largely of right angles at the beginning, grows by accretion, with the addition of short straight lines and curves which sprout from the existing design. The figure vanishes and the process begins again with a new pattern, each cycle lasting one or two seconds. The complete figures are drawn in a vaguely Art Deco style and could be said to resemble any number of things, an ear, a harp, panpipes, a grand piano with trombones, and so on, only highly stylized. The tone is playful and hypnotic.
A priest arrives in a village and give advice and comfort to different people. He meets a wheelchair-bound former representative of the Communist party, a woman who is dying of tuberculosis and an astronomer who sings in a punk band.
Born in Los Angeles but a New Yorker by choice, Barbara Hammer is a whole genre unto herself. Her pioneering 1974 short film Dyketactics, a four-minute, hippie wonder consisting of frolicking naked women in the countryside, broke new ground for its exploration of lesbian identity, desire and aesthetic.
