YELLOW MELLOW

Nicolas Provost
”Thought I have a broken heart... I’m too busy to be heartbroken. There’s a lot of things for me to be done.. but I have a broken heart”. A lion with a broken heart wanders in a public park....

VIOLIN FASE

Eric Pauwels - Eric Pauwels - Eric Pauwels
A solo in two movements; dance and camera. Eric Pauwels twirls the camera around the body of Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker. What we see is not the geometrical and minimalist choreographic structure, but a possessed woman, bathing in sweat, exploring the boundaries of physical exhaustion. A solo in two movements: the dance and the camera. Four uninterrupted takes...

STATIC SOUND

Edith Dekyndt
An unexpected soundtrack – and glimpses of sparkles – coming from the static electricity of a thick, woollen blanket that is being shaken by the artist....

A L'OMBRE DE L'HYPERBOLOÏDE

Lucile Desamory
In several respects the films of Lucile Desamory savour of the work by Stan Vanderbeek, who extracted a style of his very own from an amalgam of film, drawings and stopaction animation – and it’s no coincidence that this style became a source of inspiration for the absurd animations by Terry Gilliam...

THE BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY PROJECT

Tzu Nyen Ho
The script for the film, which takes place in a room at Singapore’s Supreme Court, is entirely based on the lyrics of Queen’s song Bohemian Rhapsody. A boy is on trial, and is broken-hearted at the sight of his ‘mama’ crying...

AU QUART DE TOUR

Antonin De Bemels
In ’Au quart de tour’ a character moves through a black image. Because of the musical editing in De Bemels’s typical stroboscope-like and fragmentary style it seems as if the character moves about hectically, though in reality he hardly moves foreward at all....

THE FLAG LEFT ON THE MOON IS MAYBE THE MOST EXPENSIVE PIECE OF FABRIC IN THE UNIVERSE

Edith Dekyndt
The flag of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is filmed at dusk. Gradually the dark flag seen against a lighter sky becomes lighter against a darkened sky....

SNNORRREBOT

Jan Vromman
A girl and a man are staying in the house. Another man, in some kind of hotel, looks out over the landscape with binoculars. A blind man arrives. They all play music. We visit a local wedding, and again there is music, bagpipes even. The music gives this video its structure, along with the gestures, movements, objects and many, many musical instruments...

VIDÉO À LA CHAÎNE I

Joëlle de La Casinière - Michel Bonnemaison
Some twenty video artists from the French school (among others Robert Cahen, Didier Bay, J.C. Bouvet, Yves le Marrec) are briefly portrayed in turns; they produce slogan-like comments on the medium of video art....

THE HIDDEN FORTRESS

Peter Finnemore
Does Finnemore wink at Kurosawa's feature film? Or does he make fun of the art of miming? Or is he really trying to breach The Hidden Fortress? Anyway, his attempt is a success!...
