Краткое содержание
Borrowing its title from a treatise by Aristotle, the latest film by Makino Takashi is an abstract work that finds its drive in the clash between light and darkness. Entirely composed of superimposed images of Tokyo’s landscape and water sites, the film takes its rhythm from the cycles of repetition that are the pillars of life and civilisation. As light emerges from the chaos, Jim O’Rourke’s ambient drone sets the tone for what is to come.
Киноэссе популярной в шестидесятые американской рок-группы The Monkees на такие «жизненно важные» темы, как отношения с девушками, коммерциализация музыки, кинопроизводство и Вьетнам.
У 24-летней Ёсики нет бойфренда, зато есть работа в хорошей компании. Но Ёсика - не такая, как все девушки. По ночам она ищет аммониты и всё ещё остро переживает, вспоминая о первой школьной любви, парне по имени Ити. Привычный мирок девушки переворачивается с ног на голову, когда коллега Ни признаётся ей в своих чувствах.
Леао, рабочий-гастарбайтер на лиссабонской стройке, падает в обморок, а обморок оборачивается двухмесячной комой. Мариана, молодая медсестра, ухаживает за пациентом и отправляется сопровождать его в возвращении на родину, на Кабо Верде, где нет нужных медикаментов, но наверняка есть родственники Леао. Мариана пытается раскрыть прошлое неподвижного пациента, оно становится ясным, то вновь запутывается, и заставляет ее каждый день смотреть на жизнь под новым углом. Пробуждение главного героя открывает новый виток спирали.
After the pandemic isolated him from his normal life and friends, a boy must deal with the unbearable dullness of a new life at home, the hurtful and escapist trappings of nostalgia, and distorted perceptions of life and his family through seeking the colors that defined the best years of his youth. A zero-budget experimental short film that expresses universal feelings of loss, paranoia, and hope the world experienced during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic through some abstract scenarios and sounds.
Cut up animation and collage technique by Harry Smith synchronized to the jazz of Thelonious Monk's Mysterioso.
Man's rebellion against the world of the digits.
Sunday afternoon. Images of last summer. A view of the sunset from a hill. Some flashes.
This film, photographed in London, is an exploration into the depths of unconscious reactions.
Astract stop-motion short film using "lightning doodles" by Tochka.
We watch white shapes dancing on black background, which changes when the white shape fills up the screen completely, and black lines and figures bounce around on the now white background.
The story of Adam and Eve with jazzy music. Short experimental animation without words.
The Goal Is To Live is an infinitely-looping assemblage constructed out of repurposed content from the popular show How It’s Made, which chronicles the factories that create everyday objects. The film takes Dina Kelberman’s practice of accumulation and recontextualization into a large-scale time-based work for the first time. Reorganizing short clips into a long Rube-Goldberg-like narrative, and featuring a hypnotic minimalist soundtrack by Rod Hamilton and Tiffany Seal, the film portrays a mesmerizing and surreal process in which materials are transformed in myriad ways.
A colourful "fountain performance".
A tale about a kid, a samurai mime, and a stripper who all try to defeat a warlord and an evil clown who have successfully turned a countryside into a never ending nightmare filled with horrible monsters.
A trip towards abstraction, as an hypothesis on how mountains might have been formed.
A space occupies it, awaiting to be unlocked by a freeing action or notion. What lies ahead is its determination.
Confined to an endlessly burning waiting room, a dying sedentary woman experiences herself blurring in and out of her body. In her last remaining fragments she tries to make amends with her spirit before her remaining fragments either decay or create.
Rainer Kohlberger’s abstract film was created entirely without a camera. Through digital algorithms, he precisely arranged a rhythm of light and shadow that pulsates off the screen into our physical space with blinding intensity. The presence of light is almost felt as we are sucked into the image to become its ghostly accomplice. As we leave the theatre, the optical vibrations continue to haunt us.
