Poster for Archipelago of Earthen Bones — To Bunya

2024 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Forming part of a film constellation that stretches from Chile across the Pacific, in which Malena Szlam trains her camera on far-flung volcanic landscapes — by turns barren and verdant — the dazzling in-camera multiple exposures of Archipelago of Earthen Bones — To Bunya evoke the layered histories of the titular Bunya Mountains in eastern Australia’s Beerwah region, further deepened by sonified atmospheres from artist Lawrence English.

Poster for The Season of Mists

2008 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Seven years ago, Marina left Moscow with her daughter, where she dreamed of writing books, to a small English village. Everything, it would seem, she has now: a loving husband, family, lovely neighbors, new friends, work, hobbies... However, it does not work out as desired. There is no sense of a fulfilled life, there is no love, there is no agreement with yourself. And then Marina's friend appears, a bright, energetic, successful writer... Marina is in a state of confusion: maybe she could work, write in Russian, which no one needs here? Maybe it's not too late to start all over again?

Poster for Magma (C)

2014 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Drops of fire that create a universe of magmatic asteroids. Liquid and gravitational reality. Cosmic energy. Atomized Rhythm. Neurons of a liberated unconscious. Elimination of the idea of "soul" as "everything", reducing it to the condition of units of energy in perpetual process, elementary particles, without duration, that arise in perfect dependence. The "I" as a stream of units of force in ceaseless becoming that procures the illusion of an entity. Karmic chain. The idea that eternity resides in the transitory, the eternal belongs to it instantly. Eternity not as infinite duration but as absence of temporality. Universe of a mobile, procedural, relational and interactive nature of everything that exists. Here the "object" is conceived as something that is constituted, completed, lost and recovered with the vibrating rhythm of a universe in constant production.

2012 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Food and eating habits are deeply ingrained in the spiritual understanding of the human body and mind. For instance, in Hindu traditions, food is referred to as ‘Brahaman’, or God.
