Moods of the Sea
A recently unearthed experimental documentary of the crashing sea set to Mendelssohn's "Fingal's Cave." An example of the filmmakers' "new cinema" theory which held that film should be more like music than literature. This film is based solely on its arrangement of images.
Box
"I stuck landscape photographs on the faces of a cube and shot them frame-by-frame. It looks like the box is forever revolving, but in truth it only revolves 90 degrees. The trick to this sensation is fundamentally the same as the one used in SPACY. I was aiming at disturbing our awareness of space in the movement from the three-dimensional to a plane and back again." Takashi Ito
Убийство в «Восточном экспрессе»
Трансевропейский экспресс «Стамбул-Кале» попадает в снежный плен, и в то же время в одном из купе обнаружен убитый пассажир. Но детектив Эркюль Пуаро оказывается рядом и прямо на месте начинает расследование.
The Green Ray
A static and silent shot of a sunset off the western coast of Madagascar. Tacita Dean filmed the ‘green ray’, a legendary natural phenomenon that takes place when, in specific atmospheric circumstances, the last ray of sun passes over the horizon and becomes green.
The Blue Light
A young woman, Junta, lives apart from her village and, for her solitude and strangeness, is considered to be a witch; when she comes to the village for one reason or another, the townsfolk chase her away. They feel that she may in some way be responsible for the deaths of several young men of the village, who have felt compelled, one by one, to climb the local mountain - and fall to their deaths - on nights when the moon is full.
Quartet Number One
Quartet Number One (1991) 8 min.
Zone
This is a film about a man without a face. His arms and legs, bound with ropes, the disabled man is still without even a shudder in a white room. A series of unusual scenes in this room expresses what lies between memories, nightmares, and violent images.
Нечто
Антарктическая экспедиция обнаруживает вмёрзший тысячи лет назад глубоко в лёд инопланетный космический корабль. Из него извлекают тело замёрзшего инопланетянина. Но когда тот оттаивает, выясняется, что этот организм неуязвим для всех видов земного оружия и обладает немыслимой силой. Инопланетянин крайне опасен, легко ориентируется в лабиринтах коридоров станции, выбирая наилучшие маршруты, при этом нападает только на одиноких людей.
Wal(l)zen
A piano player is able to perform a Chopin piece backwards and Galeta will film it backwards and forwards creating four different variations of a movement bound to time.
The Thirteenth Guest
Thirteen years after a dinner party in which the thirteenth guest failed to arrive, the remaining guests are being murdered one by one, and their bodies being placed at the same dinner table in the appropriate seats they occupied thirteen years prior.
Word and Deed
Nazi propaganda film contrasting Germany in the days of the Weimar Republic with contemporary Germany under Adolf Hitler.
Devil's Circuit
A film in which the one 60-story skyscraper that soars in the spaces between roofs spins with incredible speed. I centered the circumference with its 400 or 500 meter radius on the skyscraper and divided it into 48 sections, then took photographs from those spots and shot the photographs frame by frame.
Rhytmical Lines
A short experimental film dedicated to Polish artist Wacław Szpakowski (1883–1973).
Ancient of Days
Ancient of Days is a remarkable series of "canons and fugues for video" that comprises Viola's most sophisticated structural and metaphorical explorations of time. Mathematical notations of precise time-code editing were applied to construct illustrations of temporal symmetry, duality and transposition — time-based equivalents of musical compositional principles such as counterpoint and serialism. Astonishing temporal interventions — a 180-degree pan gazing downward on a New York City street that progresses from day to night, an image of Mount Rainier in which the foreground and background unfold in different time planes — unfold as symbolic transformations of natural and urban landscapes.
Drill
"The filming of the entrance to the company dormitory in which the film-maker was living. Centering the film on one pillar, he warps the spaces to the left and right and creates an unstable space similar to painting that employs anamorphosis. Made as were SPACY and BOX with a large number of photographs, the film ends with a violent movement, but is poetic for this." - Takashi Nakajima
Two Times in One Space
One film projected two times with a difference of a couple of seconds.
Sfaira 1985 -1895
A short experimental film; "An hommage to silent movies".
Chott el-Djerid (A Portrait in Light and Heat)
A documentary short in Chott el-Djerid.
Banner of Youth
A short film advertising the newspaper Sztandar Młodych (The Banner of Youth), noteworthy for its abstract elements painted directly onto film stock. An attempt at showing the complexity of the world in a capsule, the film reflects the new policy of the openness to the West during the Thaw of the late 1950s in Poland.
