Night Program 1

Maison Heinrich Heine -- Cité Universitaire

Friday October 7th-8th -- Midnight




Darkness of the Day

Jay Rosenblatt
United-States
2009 | Digital | 0:26:00


Following the suicide of a friend, Rosenblatt uses archival footage to explore depression and mortality, treating what many consider a clinical subject into a richly resonant, multilayered and meditative one.

Andrey Getov
Bulgaria
2010 | Digital | 0:04:00


The subjective experience of a suitcase floating in the sea. We do not know where it came from, nor how many there are. The trunk appears and disappears many a time, transferred onto a car in front of a large villa in the countryside. A brain teaser for attentive audiences with a sharp eye. Evidently inspired by Rybczy?ski, the young Bulgarian Getov uses music and montage with creative ability and talent. Like it used to be done.

Tusi Tamasese
Samoa, New Zeland
2009 | Digital | 0:16:00


Saili, un homme de petite taille, vit paisiblement sa vie de paysan avec sa femme, Vaaiga et sa belle-fille Litia, à Samoa, Polynésie. Dans le passé, Vaaiga fut bannie de son village et aujourd'hui, elle refuse de retourner au sein de sa famille afin d'en restaurer l'équilibre, comme son frère lui en a fait la demande. Soudain, de manière tragique, la paisible existence de cette famille est menacée par une catastrophe inattendue et de vieilles rancunes familiales. Saili doit alors trouver le courage de parler pour ceux qu'il aime.

Berard Attal
United-States
2009 | Digital | 0:13:20


In A Bike Ride, Nina, a young girl whose parents recently divorced, reconciles the uncertainties of life during bicycle rides with her father. Each day they observe the lives of neighbors and share their thoughts about love, death, separation, and the joy and challenges sudden changes bring to one's existence.

 

 

Boredom

Mauro Folci
Italy
2009 | Digital | 0:03:33


It is the intention of this project to draw a connection between the gestures born of the interaction between the man’s hands and the lion’s paws and the concept of profound boredom as described by Heidegger, who posited an analogy between the stupor of the animal and boredom, an emotional state which the philosopher considered essential for any philosophising to take place.

 

 

The Last Breath

Alina Serebrennikov
Germany
2011 | Digital | 0:15:00

 

This film is based on the passing thoughts of a dying mind. It shows life, not death.

 

 

Night

Albert Bayona
Spain
2011 | Digital | 0:05:15

 

The best things during the night remain uncovered. However, imagination is capable of recreating scenes that reflect reality with previous personal compositions. All of this with out using any abstract intelligible ideas.

 

 

The consolation in the water-mother

Hyo-min Chol
South Korea
2010 | Digital | 0:09:00

 

With a splash, a maiden in a wedding dress is sacrificed to the Sea Dragon King for this underwater ballet.

Juan Millares
Spain
2009 | Digital | 0:13:10


In 1900, Atget photographes Paris in the style of a crime scene. In 1929 Mies Van der Rohe inaugurates in Barcelona the German detached house of the world fair which will become one of the most remarkable buildings of the 20th century. In 1980, a Spanish architect imagines fictions from pages of architecture books. Three real characters and three stories cross the history in an extraordinary and fascinating game of deduction, intrigue and announcement of hidden crimes in the old photos.
