Traces of Garden
Writer
A poetic connection between colors, forms, and movement. Images that feature water, trees, landscapes, and a love scene where everything transforms and repeats itself, and no picture is identical to another one.

Dragonflies with Birds and Snake
Director
TROLLSLÄNDOR MED FÅGLAR OCH ORM is documentation and a meditation, a pure visual space of vibrant images and a travel in a world we never have a chance to come in to. The title says it all; the work is an imaginative world of insects consisting of images, combined with birds, as there are toads and snakes to see. The theme is the eternal cycle of life, birth, sex and death. The structure of the film images is constant change. TROLLSLÄNDOR MED FÅGLAR OCH ORM is a composition of images and contains of many frames of 16 mm film. Some images are self-recorded, others are taken from scientific film material and combining the images like in a collage, TROLLSLÄNDOR MED FÅGLAR OCH ORM examines the mysterial grey zone of image and imagination. The film has no text, no sound it is only visual!

Birds by the Sea (Prayer)
Director
For quite some time i have been fascinated by the spectacular beauty of the 13th Century Roman Liturgy for Easter. AUgustin's (Philosopher and church teacher who lived during the transition from the Antique to the Middle Ages) words about the art of the Sequence, which at the time were refered to by the singers as a work of music, inspired me to undertake the attempt to produce a film, one which essentially reflects what Augusrin heard. Indeed what did je hear? A form of communiction which didn't ne cessitate the spoken word, but one in which one spirit to another was revealed. I have presented here a Visual Sequence to the musical sequence.
Children of the Decree
Editor
Procreation is the social duty of all fertile women, was the political thinking during the 1960s and 1970s in Romania. In 1966, Ceaucescu issued Decree 770, in which he forbade abortion for all women unless they were over forty or were already taking care of four children. All forms of contraception were totally banned. The New Romanian Man was born. By 1969, the country had a million babies more than the previous average. Romanian society was rapidly changing. By using very interesting archival footage and excerpts from old fiction films and by interviewing famous personalities from that time – gynecologists or mothers who were part of the new society - the director revives this period of tremendous oppression of personal freedom. Many deaths were caused by the mere fact that women, including wives of secret Romanian agents, famous TV presenters, and actresses, had to undergo illegal abortions. Many women were jailed for having them.
Sea
Director
This film poem about the sea is a visual invitation to an imaginary journey through the landscape of waves along the Atlantic coast. Or as Herman Melville writes: "Let a distracted person sink into deep dreams... And, invariably they will lead you to water... Yes, everyone knows that meditation and water are closely connected!" The sources of inspiration for our film flow of film pictures were the "soul images" described by Melville in MOBY DICK and the rhythmic and powerful music of composer Misato Mochizuki.
