IFFR 2012
Film is made from material, just like the rest of the world for that matter. The filmmaker is Lord and Master over this material. For as long as it lasts.
In this combined programme
-
Arrastre
A beautifully choreographed animation film with a title denoting both a drag in dance terminology and a crude apparatus used for pulverizing ore. -
Jardin du sel
Enchanting golden glow across the salt fields with the sun low on the horizon. Carefully shot 16mm film by influential French experimental filmmaker. -
Alone with the Moon
This is a wonderfully illusive slowmo animation film: a night vision from the depths of a well, the darkness pregnant with bugs and stars. -
Tape Generations
A simple, brilliantly executed idea gives this performance by countless rolls of sellotape the flair of a Busby Berkeley choreography. -
Sack Barrow
A new 16mm, time-abolishing, alchemical, factory floor film from Tiger Award for Shorts winner, Ben Rivers.
