Drumming Beat of the Stars (2012)

오샤레는 오늘도 친구들과 함께 여름방학 계획을 짜느라 여념이 없다. 방과 후 집으로 돌아온 그녀를 맞이하는 아빠, 이탈리아에서 돌아온 아빠가 반갑지만 아빠 옆에는 곧 새 엄마가 될 낯선 여자가 서 있다. 충격에 휩싸인 오샤레는 문득 생각난 시골 이모댁에 편지 한 통을 보낸다. 여름방학이 오고 오샤레는 7명의 친구들과 함께 시골 이모 집을 방문하기로 한다. 정겨운 시골의 분위기와 따뜻하게 맞아주는 이모는 도시밖에 몰랐던 오샤레와 친구들에게 특별한 방학을 선사해 줄 듯 하다. 하지만 뜻 밖의 사건들이 그들을 기다리고 있다. 집 안의 물건들이 그들을 위협하기 시작하고 친구들이 하나 둘씩 사라져 간다. 위협의 정체는 바로 이모. 사랑하는 사람을 전쟁으로 잃은 채 혼자 살다가 수년 전에 죽은 이모는 자신의 원한을 풀고자 젊은 처녀들을 잡아먹기 시작한다.

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.

A dark comedy about a murder and its consequences presented in a backwards manner, where death is actually a rebirth. The film starts with an "execution" of the main protagonist and goes back to explore his previous actions and motivations.

In the solitude of night, the veil of reality slips away to reveal our deepest fears.

A children's film about the largest mass suicide of the 20th century reconstructs the 1978 event. The Reverend Jim Jones forced nearly a thousand followers of his People's Temple sect to drink poison in the settlement of Jonestown, Guyana, South America. A third of them were children. Jan Bušta gives sadists, voyeurs, and necrophiliacs one minute to leave the cinema. His self-reflective documentary, which is the result of ten years of time-lapse filming, does not depict dramatic scenes. To the sound of an audio recording from that fateful day, we see a collage of child ghosts preaching about escaping the corruption of the world.

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?

카메라없이 처음으로 만들어진 작품. 실제로 필름 위에 나방의 날개, 꽃잎 조각, 풀 등을 콜라주 형태로 붙여놓고 일련의 프린트 과정을 거친 작품으로 널리 알려져 있다. 이미 죽어버린 생명체가 작가의 손길을 거쳐 스크린 위에 다시 투영될 때의 빛의 숨결을 받아 새로운 생명으로 환생한다는 역설적인 메시지를 지니고 있다. 바로 빛의 깜박거림으로 인하여 영사기를 통해 보여지는 나방의 날개는 마치 살아서 움직이는 것같은 환상을 관객들에게 제공한다.

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.

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.

Experimental film consisting of a single static shot of the Empire State Building from early evening until nearly 3 am the next day.

Tar pits form as petroleum seeps to the surface through fissures in the Earth’s crust, leaving viscous asphalt pools. To make Tar Pits Film, Jennifer West threw a strip of film into the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles, still-bubbling asphalt pools which have seeped from the ground for tens of thousands of years. The film was then ridden over hot asphalt by a motorcycle and drenched in other substances including thick mayonnaise and body lotion.

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.

An experimental short film by Walerian Borowczyk and Jan Lenica.

“I've never seen light that looks or feels so dark; forward moving possibility united with so much cosmic terror.”—Marilyn Brakhage

Collected as part of the Fluxfilm Anthology (a multi-reel compendium of 37 short films assembled by Fluxus founder and central operator George Maciunas), One captures the lifespan of a single match recorded at 2,000 frames per second using a 16mm high-speed camera. The frame rate is then decelerated to the standard 24fps for presentation. The film emphasizes each gesture, sway and flare of flame as the small pinewood carrier ignites across the landscape of the filmstrip and screen, signalling the drama and poetics of this ”minor” event before the fire is extinguished. One also stands as an unassuming beacon, immortalizing on film the essence of some of Ono’s early concerns as an artist. At the slightest touch of fire, they burst into flame. Strike everywhere. Strike often.

From cradle to grave. A travelogue in the vein of the early super 8 films by Derek Jarman and Mark Jenkin, and the rambling grimoires of Ithell Colquhoun, retracing the primal journey of the early Holocene mystics of the Guernsey bailiwick.

Through the passage of the hours, water evaporates at the same time as signals catch a sight of their previous state. Within this outflowing recording, every light reading is a dedication to a single wandering soul.

A live action footage of a smiling, bespectacled (presumably) Western tourist set against the familiar cadence of an accelerating train revving up as it leaves the station sets the mesmerizing tone for the film's abstract panoramic survey of an Ozu-esque Japanese landscape of electrical power lines, passing trains, railroad tracks, and the gentle slope of obliquely peaked, uniform rooflines as Breer distills the essential geometry of Mount Fuji into a collage of acute angles and converging (and bifurcating) lines .
