Animation and Dance Retrospective
Zajtrk na travi / Eine murul / Breakfast on the grass
It takes 99% of work and 1% talent to create a masterpiece.
Addicted
A person / a personality / a creature. Are there „real“ answers or do we only project them into our head? Are we lonesome individuals in need of protection, or multiple creatures driven by egoism? Rorschach sends his regards, and Madame Humtata provides the Soundtrack.
Pajkov ples / La danza del piccolo ragno / Dance of the Little Spider
The Dance of the Taranta is part of an ancient ritual of southern Italy, particularly Apulia. The belief is that only that ritual of music and dance will heal the victims of the Taranta spider’s bite.
Sovine radosti in muhe / Eulenlust & Laune / An Owl's Zest & Quirks
Having just met, a young woman and her local companion take a car trip in Georgia. There is laughter, dancing, and drinking. But without warning, the casual atmosphere constantly switches with a tense scenario: An anthropomorphous owl appears to cling to the protagonist like a shadow, a second person, and engage in a subliminal conflict with her companion.
Obrazi s poti / Portraits de voyages / Faces from places: Senegal – Sabar
In Dakar, two drums can create a lively atmosphere. That is when we start dancing sabar, a way of curing the body as well as the mind.
Spin
When conflict becomes a spectacle, the lines between destruction and entertainment get blurred…
Memento Mori
In a mourning ceremony the photographer takes a picture of a little girl. With the face contrite assistants leave the room, leaving it surrounded by flowers. Little by little we approach the girl and recoup her memories and the universe of death.
Balet / Le Ballet / The Ballet
The film follows the story and the unfolding of a ballet at the Opéra Garnier, from the musical overture to when the curtain comes down. It is full of anecdotes and images: the dancers, the audience, the orchestra, the technicians backstage, the scenography: everything that makes up a show at the Opera, and not only what is happening onstage.
Us
In an empty, timeless setting, funny little figures wander around with no apparent purpose... until a stone falls from the sky. What they do with it reveals the true nature of these odd creatures.
Dip N' Dance
A middle-class man in his forties who loves his domotics to obey every word, will figure out in a musical way, that things you own end up owning you
Trnati tango / Tumbleweed Tango
A balloon dog is lost in a world of danger. One wrong step and his dancing days are done. Only love, and tango, can possibly save him.
Sonata
In an imaginary musical world, a young woman seeks escape, loses herself and tests her own limits. Gradually she must open up in order to reinvent herself.
