Poster for The Dream #9-2380 (IK-6)

2022 · ★ 7.0 (1)

The film from a correctional colony explores the theme of self-awareness of a person in captivity. The director shows the prison from an unexpected angle. This is a hypnotizing, oneiric vision. There is no moralizing here. The author is interested in a person and the most precious thing he has - his dreams and his reality. The film contains documentary footage from a correctional colony (a plastic recycling workshop and a residential block), mounted with a monologue of a prisoner in order to understand what is happening with human reality on the other side of the fence.

The words appear ghostly. Sentences form and take on a life of their own. The text changes, reformulating itself like a living consciousness. Some words are highlighted in a pictorial play of vibrant visual degradation.

Ur is a film about the disappear­ance of Europe’s last primeval forest. The future of this natural environment is under pressure, because of conflicting political interests. Ur shows how political decision­ making influences the formation of landscapes. The film gives a voice to the people who have been involved in the disappearance and the future of this forest, from the Polish government to lawyers of Client Earth as well as the European Commission. Ultimately, it brings into view what the death of a living organism means.

Poster for Los cuatro vientos

2021 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Almost every inhabitant of Fondo Negro has relatives abroad. Since the 1980s, job migration, meaning wages shared with the residents from afar, has been one of the most important sources of income in this region in the southwest of the Dominican Republic. Young women in particular go to Europe or the U.S. to support their families by unskilled labour. In her enchantingly beautiful film, director Anna-Sophia Richard shows how this affects the ones who stay behind.

Poster for breathing exercises

2021 · ★ 0.0 (0)

A past therapist had taught me that counting to four when inhaling and then six when exhaling was the most effective bioregulatory method for anxiety. From March to August 2020, I picked the camera while repeating these exercises, filming during the inhales. First a coping attempt by trying to record calmness amidst the global crisis, halfway through this reel turns into a journal of how the same breathing exercises became a recuperative practice after sudden illness and hospitalisation.
