The Sky Trembles and the Earth Is Afraid and the Two Eyes Are Not Brothers
Shooting against the staggering beauty of the Moroccan landscape, from the rugged terrain of the Atlas Mountains to the stark and surreal emptiness of the desert, with its encroaching sands and abandoned film sets, a director abandons his own film set and descends into a hallucinatory, perilous adventure of cruelty, madness and malevolence. A Paul Bowles story combined with observational footage forms a multi-layered excavation into the illusion of cinema itself.
Повинность
Военная повинность — бытийная данность, относящаяся ко всем: мужчинам или женщинам, служившим или избежавшим службы в Армии. Что такое подчинение, несвобода, зависимость от обстоятельств, замкнутость и однообразие повседневного быта, подавляющего желания и мечты, — это ведь знают не только люди, запертые в пространстве пограничного корабля, идущего в море. Это знают все. Реальные люди, военные моряки, в реальных обстоятельствах повседневной службы, документально зафиксированных камерой, волею режиссера превращены в персонажей художественного повествования, где есть и главный герой: рассказчик, Командир Корабля.
Ah, Liberty!
A family's place in the wilderness, outside of time; free-range animals and children, junk and nature, all within the most sublime landscape. The work aims at an idea of freedom, which is reflected in the hand-processed Scope format, but is undercut with a sense of foreboding. There's no particular story; beginning, middle or end, just fragments of lives lived, rituals performed.

Men of the City
In Men of the City, Isaacs takes a more stylised approach to the lives of workers in the City of London during the recent financial meltdown, balancing sensitive portraits of diverse individuals striving to retain their dignity and humanity in the midst of the crisis.

Water and Power
Pat O'Neill, one of the most interesting filmmakers in America today, offers a dazzling reflection on the conflict between nature and man in Los Angeles, or the desertification of the city's surroundings due to its enormous water consumption. More interestingly, it is also a film in the age-old tradition of city symphonies: a film about LA's foundation myths and the dreams it embodies, about its history and (grim) future, its topography and ethnography. O'Neill uses footage from several classic films to recreate the several layers of meaning emanating from the city, juxtaposing images and fantasies and hardly ever allowing one picture to go untouched. George Lockwood's swarming soundtrack is likewise composed of conflicting languages, an elaborate work of plunderphonics in which snippets of sound stolen from movies collide with electronic soundscapes, contemporary chamber music, improv, and what not.
