In Her Boots by Kathrin Steinbacher

"A bizarre hike through unstable terrain, which visualizes how it feels to be in Hedi’s shoes."

Any Instant Whatever by Michelle Brand

"A man in a room, in a film – it is the becoming of something and simultaneously becoming in itself. Nothing is as solid as we believe.

The film explores our perception of time, bodies and objects, and our inability to comprehend the full motion of things."

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."

Film: Simon Feat
Music: Clément wlaker-Viry, Gabriel Feat

The Redness of Red by Emily DownePlus

"What does it mean to be conscious in a world that is becoming increasingly artificially intelligent? Can machines really see? Based on an interview with a professor in artificial intelligence, this short documentary uses analog techniques to explore the human tendency to anthropomorphise simple drawings, and how we might do the same to machines."

Tomorrow’s On Fire by Oh Yeah Wow

Created in direct response to the Australian Bushfire crisis, Darcy Prendergast's new film #TomorrowsOnFire is a rallying cry for hope, in a country increasingly scarce of it.

Lyrics:
I’m angered, incensed, enraged and fed up.
With you lazy, ignorant fossil fool chumps

You’ve sold out our nation, and served up division
Whilst it’s grief stricken people, scream at deaf politicians

And it’s not just the humans— our animals fry
While you coal hearted arsonists, continue to thrive.

On our future you wager, without heed nor concern
Just misinformation, while our backyards burn

You elected officials hold aloft lumps of coal,
With the pride of an Olympian, who’s just won gold

From up high on ye’ podium, you silence dissenters
What we’ve come to expect, from you bald one percenters

You should be disgraced, and thrown headfirst from office.
Do not pass go, do not stock mining coffers.

Instead you drive narratives, of left vs right,
Whilst you all fear, what the middle just might.

So rally together, love strong and rage stronger
So that life on this planet, can last some time longer.

Tomorrow’s on fire, and the sky it bleeds crimson.
So it’s about time, we made our tax dollars listen.
