Conceptual-structural film by Branko Karabatić exploring media and television.
행위예술가로 유명한 부모님 밑에서 자라온 ‘애니 팽’(니콜 키드먼)과 ‘백스터 팽’(제이슨 베이트먼). 애니와 백스터는 어릴 때부터 각각 ‘아이 A’, ‘아이 B’로 행위예술에 참여하며 자라왔다. 배우가 된 애니, 작가가 된 백스터는 집을 떠나 각자의 삶을 살고 있지만 예술적으로 기괴한 부모님 덕에 누리게 된 독특한 유년시절의 그림자를 쉽게 떨칠 수가 없다. 여배우로서 하향세를 걷고 있는 애니와 첫 작품의 히트 이후 이렇다 할 차기작을 내놓지 못하는 백스터 남매는, 백스터의 병원 입원을 계기로 고향집으로 돌아오게 된다. 아버지인 ‘칼렙 팽’(크리스토퍼 월켄)과 엄마 ‘카미유 팽’(메리앤 프런켓)은 다시 뭉친 가족의 새로운 행위예술을 기획하지만 애니와 백스터는 또다시 아이 A와 아이 B로 돌아가지 않기 위해 부모님과 갈등을 빚는다. 그러던 어느 날, 여행을 떠난 칼렙과 카미유의 실종 사건이 벌어지고, 진짜 실종인지 아니면 또 다른 파격 퍼포먼스인지 알 수 없는 상황 속에서 애니와 백스터는 그렇게도 벗어나고 싶었던 부모님을 필사적으로 찾아야 하는 상황에 빠지게 되는데…
텔레비전 채널 BBC2에서 로고 영상을 의뢰해 제작한 영화. 하지만 BBC로부터 사용을 거절당하고, 이후 세 시퀀스가 지금의 형태를 띠게 되었다.
An opera for television by Robert Ashley. Set in the American Midwest, it is “about” bank robbery, cocktail lounges, geriatric love, adolescent elopement, the changing of the light at sundown, et al. One of the definitive text-sound compositions of the late 20th century, it has been called "the most influential music/theater/literary work of the 1980s".
A blue cat named Buxton is found in the Magic Garden. With help from the Blue voice (played by Fenella Fielding), Buxton enters the ruins of the old treacle factory where he is crowned king after correctly identifying the colours of seven doors (coloured different shades of blue). Buxton throws all the characters of The Magic Roundabout except Dougal into prison and steals Zebedee's magic moustach
A poor otter family risks everything for the chance to win the cash prize of a talent contest for Christmas.
Little Willy McBean joins up with a Mexican monkey named Pablo to travel back in time and stop the evil Prof. von Rotten from changing history.
This short film is part of a mixed media artwork of the same name, which also included postcards of Ader crying, sent to friends of his, with the title of the work as a caption. The film was initially ten minutes long, and included Ader rubbing his eyes to produce the tears, but was cut down to three and a half minutes. This shorter version captures Ader at his most anguished. His face is framed closely. There is no introduction or conclusion, no reason given and no relief from the anguish that is presented.
One of a series of ‘falls’ by Bas Jan Ader that he recorded on film, this work was filmed in West Kapelle, Holland in 1970.
Bas Jan Ader hangs from the branch of a tall tree, until he loses his grip and falls into a river below.
Shot in his garage-studio, the camera records Ader painstakingly hoisting a large brick over his shoulder. His figure is harshly lit by two tangles of light bulbs. He drops the brick, crushing one strand of lights. He again lifts the brick, allowing tension to accrue. The climax inevitable—the brick falls and crushes the second set of lights. Here the film abruptly ends, all illumination extinguished.
Fozzie Bear surprises his mother on Christmas Eve by bringing the entire Muppet gang to her farm to celebrate the holidays. Doc and his dog Sprocket, who had planned a quiet Christmas, end up joining the Muppets in their holiday activities and preparations. The Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock regulars join the festivities, but to Kermit's dismay, the only one missing is Miss Piggy, who has been caught in a snowstorm.
Monty is a young cute rat in a rat world living beneath the streeets of Manhattan. When exterminator Dollart gets a new lethal spray to kill all the rodents, Monty, his friend Isabella and Jean-Paul Canalligator have to travel to magic land to make things right.
The Muppets of Sesame Street and the cast of The Electric Company take over the ABC Nightly News when the newsroom staff takes a lunch break.
Druga linija aka The Other Line is a product of many years of research of neo-avant-garde cultural and art scene in Novi Sad, Serbia (late 60s and 70s), which has been marginalized until today. This artistic movement was directly connected not only with important art centers of the former Yugoslavia, but also with existing flows of world art during its brief and productive activities (7e Biennale de Paris, 19th Berlinale). The cultural and artistic emancipation of that time had implied individual freedom of expression and strong reaction to established boundaries. This avant-garde movement had become threat to communist establishment, the authors' work were sabotaged, the films were sealed off, five artists were taken to trial, two were sent in prison. How is it that the retrograde mechanism of shutting down and removing the most creative and representative progressive impulses of our surrounding is still so current to this day?
Take a stroll down Sesame Street and witness the birth of the most influential children's show in television history. From the iconic furry characters to the classic songs you know by heart, learn how a gang of visionary creators changed the world.
A man and a woman are involved in the production of an animated film. He animates by day, she makes and repairs the accessories at night. Behind the scenes, a woman is waiting for her entrance.
Evil rules the night. It spreads its black hand across the land. No one is safe from its wrath and sooner or later it will devour everyone. One man has made it his purpose to journey into the heart of hell and face the devil himself to take back what is rightfully his. This is the story of Jonathan Harker. This Orlando based team have challenged themselves to create a silent film in HARKER, a puppet short. They have gone to great lengths to re-create the true feeling of a silent movie. Puppets are created with an exceptional visual style, much like the German Expressionists films The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and Nosferatu.
