Краткое содержание

In Slot in Memory, a 2013 short from Syrian filmmaker Khaled Abdulwahed, images of war are only visible through a tiny crack in an otherwise dark frame. Abdulwahed cuts between this crack and simple footage of children from Lebanon’s Sabra and Shatila refugee camps playing happily on a swing. Abdulwahed has said he had initially set out to tell a more direct account of war and trauma, but because he was physically unable to reach warzones inside Syria, he felt he couldn’t do such a project justice. Instead, filming the kids, he discovered the swing they were playing on had a crack in it, which inspired him to make the visual connection with the obscured war footage.

How to Be a Candid Woman
To produce speech, a set of mechanisms must be brought together. What is the normal articulation for speech? How to produce the sounds that make it up in the correct way? A physiological analysis of the aspects of speech shows us how: the jaw must move in a certain way; the air must be expelled from the lungs in another. Based on the concepts stated in the film "Normal Speech Articulation" (1965), produced by the University of Iowa (USA), we intend to reflect on the way women have been represented, and consequently educated, over the years, both in film and in the media. Largely composed of archival footage, this film intends to make evident, through a montage inspired by Structuralist movements, the violence of this education.

Мечты о прошломъ
Фильм о мире, любви и войне. Посвящается 100-летию окончания Гражданской войны в России. Действие фильма происходит в конце лета 1917 года, когда Россия и весь мир находились на перепутье двух эпох. Никто из людей даже представить себе не мог, насколько сильно изменится его жизнь в самом ближайшем будущем. Странным образом атмосфера фильма перекликается с нашей нынешней реальностью и с тем, что происходит сегодня в России. По форме визуализации фильм относится к экспериментальному псевдодокументальному кинематографу. Чтобы придать большую достоверность происходящему на экране, съемка велась на черно-белые негативы 16 и 35 мм, использовались камеры с ручным управлением, а материал проявлялся в ручных спиральных емкостях. Документальная хроника армии Колчака 1919 года и Белой армии на Дальнем Востоке 1922 года встроена в финал фильма.
