Paysages consommés | Yannis Belatach | 2023 | France | 06’09
The transformation of natural landscapes, linked to the Anthropocene, raises questions for me about the connection between physical and virtual environments. My project explores this intersection through a video installation created from photography, depicting a quarry where minerals, plants, and machines blend into a digital vision.
PACIFIC VEIN | Ulu Braun | 2024 | Germany | 12’
Pacific Vein takes us through a painterly US-Panorama. Assange stands between fake columns, hippies and energy drinks and ponders the digitalization of our world. Media scenes merge hypnotically with documentary footage. The empire is diligent (self-optimization) and nervous (weapons), and the American Dream glitched into a ghostly autosuggestion. Where is the enemy and who has the image rights?
Torii | Martin Gerigk | 2024 | Germany, Japan | 12’30
Torii 鳥居 is a short film about the traditional Shinto gates of the same name in Japan. The film uses these gates which symbolically mark the transition from the mundane to the sacred as representatives of a personal spiritual journey through five levels of consciousness.
Les Microbes | Matze Görig | 2024 | Germany | 17’42
Les microbes is based on the stories of some of the crew members that were told during the filmmaking process and reflects on their situation in an experimental way. They had to flee their homes due to poverty, war and prosecution. And now after their long journey they have to persevere and wait. Wait while the world is turning madly.
