10.0The film was produced applying mixed techniques on Super 8 film support.
5.0A short film advertising the newspaper Sztandar Młodych (The Banner of Youth), noteworthy for its abstract elements painted directly onto film stock. An attempt at showing the complexity of the world in a capsule, the film reflects the new policy of the openness to the West during the Thaw of the late 1950s in Poland.
7.5Three memories that become one. An attempt to merge heterogeneous materials: a film sequence shot in Rome, a photo from the 1930s, a noisy soundtrack. Fragmented lines, exploding bass frequencies and flickering.
5.0Hand painted directly onto film stock by Margaret Tait, this film features animated dancing figures, accompanied by authentic calypso music.
0.0A boom operator attempts to record the noise mushrooms make in this semi-experimental animation inspired by the world of sounds.
3.8An anthology of one-minute films created by 51 international filmmakers on the theme of the death of cinema. Intended as an ode to 35mm, the film was screened one time only on a purpose-built 20x12 meter public cinema screen in the Port of Tallinn, Estonia, on 22 December 2011. A special projector was constructed for the event which allowed the actual filmstrip to be burnt at the same time as the film was shown.
0.0Someone falls off the scene and a tree is upside down. In the search for the roots, people are torn from their usual order, while in the dark connections are made.

0.0Creeping from the halls of the maze brain, corruption and terror is woven by devils born from the denied errors of mankind.
5.7Seemingly at random, the wings and other bits of moths and insects move rapidly across the screen. Most are brown or sepia; up close, we can see patterns within wings, similar to the veins in a leaf. Sometimes the images look like paper cutouts, like Matisse. Green objects occasionally appear. Most wings are translucent. The technique makes them appear to be stuck directly to the film.
Toccafondo made some 1200 drawings of the silent movie star Buster Keaton and subjected them to his process of transformation. His hero collapses, climbs and parades on an ever changing canvas that is set to exhilarating violin music.
0.0A space occupies it, awaiting to be unlocked by a freeing action or notion. What lies ahead is its determination.
0.0A guy named Peter learns several facts about plastic's impact on the environment.
