The inescapable desire of Root
Mark Chua, Li Shuen Lam,
When hair begins to sprout wildly all over a man’s body, his struggle becomes a resistance against subjugation in which the human anguish is palpable. Combining overlaid 16mm and Super 8 film loops, this manic new short by Singaporean duo Mark Chua and Lam Li Shuen is an exploration of the relationship between the body and the city in an ever violent society.
Don’t Know What
Thomas Renolder
A man gazes into the camera, breaths, speaks, and blinks. In playfully formal austerity, Thomas Renoldner explores the borders of the cinematic genre. Real film becomes stop-motion, language a hammering noise staccato. The film draws comical and intellectual potential from the transformation of organic movements and sounds into mechanical ones, from the dissolution of the world into abstraction and rhythm.
Hotel Kalura
Sophie Koko Gate
A woman walks into a hotel bar on the romantic island of Sicily, waiting to be lit.
Chase
Paraic McGloughlin
Shot in Ireland and Poland – a journey that explores ideas of decision, choice, consequence, circumstance and time among other things, a personal perception on how we try to find whatever it is we are searching for.The film looks at objects, people, and places which share common properties, our connection with one another and our environments in the very similar yet very different paths we share.
Claudios Song
Andreas Nilsson
A young man faces the wrath of a family of criminals that target people who are famous on the internet and extort money from them. When their scheme fails, the plan to kill him takes an unexpected turn.
Gods of the Supermarket
Alberto Gonzales Morales
In times of body positive movements this film pays tribute to the mainstream representation of the male body which the director has a love-hate relationship with. Through a series of gleaned images from the internet and elsewhere (“net found footage”), our cultural obsession with unrealistic beauty standards is put into question.
