PASSAGE by Simon Feat

"When the sun goes down, terrestrial activity slows down, cools off, and falls asleep. The stars appear in the deep black sky and the short cycles of terrestrial life give way to cosmic eternities. That is the moment chosen by a tiny soul to leave the Earth."

Le temps de l’arbre (The hours of tree) by Jeong Dahee

Animation / 2012 / 8min 20sec / Color / 2D painting, Live action / 1.77:1 / No dialogue / Stereo

"I imagined that floating without a sticking place humans want to root like trees, while trees stretch their branches and wave their leaves longing for freedom. As trees undergo a change of hours and seasons
in one place, this film is a form of observing the change by a camera in one place.

"LOVE is a short film describing affection in 3 different chapters, through an impact on a distant solar system."

land without evil by Kati Egel

"Throughout history people have always been searching for a perfect place. This shortfilm, based on Guaraní mythology (Tierra sin mal), offers another point of view on paradise: what if the real paradise is inside us and lies in the harmony and unity of everything alive?"

Euphoria/Alegría
by Kati Egely

Music: Chancha via Circuito - bienaventuranza, Wonderful Recordings 2013

"The subject of my work is the old paradox between man and nature. People had long ago cut themselves off of their natural environment and have suffered since from this division, the lack of the essential feeling of unity and belonging. .... "

at least for a while anyway
by Daniel Crooks

"A collaboration between Nat Cursio and Daniel Crooks, at least for a while anyway locates Don Asker, a treasure of Australian dance practice, amongst his ‘other’ life as a farmer. In this imaginatively rendered portrait, Asker’s body is prised open to celebrate the depth of corporeal knowledge encapsulated within one extraordinary human being. Figure and ground coalesce in a work which meditates upon continuity, place and the solubility of identity."
