With a look of love, Rivers returns with a mineral-encrusted portrait of Servex Ltd, an eight-decades-old factory, fallen out of time and space. A chill falls with only easy listening music, pin-ups and tea breaks to keep us warm in this crystalline cavern.

-
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.
