TRAUM
Dir: Heinrich von Kleist | UK, 2013 | 17mins
Traum is a high-intensity hallucinogenic mash-up of YouTube found-footage, underpinned by a pulsing electronic drone. The film aims for maximum apocalyptic intensity in sound and vision. Contemporary existence is portrayed as a chaotic maelstrom of beauty and horror from which there is no escape.
TEMPESTARII
Dir: Gast Bouschet & Nadine Hilbert | Luxembourg/Iceland, 2013 |38mins
Dawn spreads its luminous rays across the coast of Iceland, to reveal a sorcerer standing between wine-dark sea and mountainous black rock. He is tempestarii, a figure of medieval lore, undertaking a primitive rite manifested to conjure a storm. The tides of the deep ocean breathe heavily rising and falling across the cinema screen with amplifying power, as the weather-maker beats a mysterious sack against the monolithic cliffs with powerful repetition. As a magical tool, this sack contains forceful winds pulled from each corner of world. As an analogy, it is aligned with the revolutionary transformations of nature by water, air, solar radiation, and geological shifts and filled with the vast potential of man’s will in alliance with Nature. As an omen, the tempestarii signals profound change on both physical and metaphysical realms.
THE REALIST
Dir: Scott Stark | USA, 2013 | 40mins
The Realist is an experimental and highly abstracted melodrama, a "doomed love story" storyboarded with flickering still photographs, peopled with department store mannequins, and located in the visually heightened universe of clothing displays, fashion islands and storefront windows.
