Machos

Superfilm / Super rzecz / Super Film
An animated short based on contemporary mass culture. It is a tribute to American movies, TV series and cartoons created in the second half of the 20th century. The plot takes place in an artist's sketchbook where the clashing realities of doodles, special effects, Hollywood movies, cartoons and corporate logos collide. All this put together leads to an inevitable end, revealing a completely different and much greater reality.
Rumeno / Amarillo / Yellow
The artificial flavour of banana tastes like a fruit that no longer exists. Gros Michel was America’s most popular strand until a virus wiped out the plantations in the 60s. Its obituary describes the lifespan of an individual crop within the context of global food politics; a system in which desire blurs the boundary between the natural and synthetic.
Beyond
A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light can not get out. Also on Earth there are places and situations with strange attraction. Some back off, some step closer to observation.
