elements of nothing | makino takashi | japan, 2007 | 19'

for this film, makino allowed himself to be inspired by the earth. in a never-ending stream of images, we recognize elements from the forest that he then reduces to an abstraction. the film came about as a classical composition in which the picture and the musical contribution of jim o'rourke link up seamlessly and lead the mood in turn. a sense of freedom is what predominates.

wishing well | sylvia schedelbauer | germany, 2018 | 13'

gushing colors. a time disjointed, yet synchronous. a transcendent turn, a quest for agency, a reunion with currents of the forest. (sylvia schedelbauer)

vertigo rush | johann lurf | germany, 2007 | 19'

a simple idea: find a beautiful sun-dappled verdant forest scene, then dolly zoom in and out slowly, then at incrementally increasing speed, until the image mutates into a merciless visceral assault that interrogates the very nature of human perception. (leeds film festival)
