BREATHE!

Matthias Kreter & Max Breuer/9:10/Germany/Fantasy/2018

Whiskey, cigars and rich food paired with playing cards. The obvious frame of a stylish and comfortably get-together. However in this case the attendees do not play for fun and their standing but for their own life.

consumer landscape

Rudolfas Levulis & Paulisus Mazuras/3:45/Lithuania/Experimental/2018

A camera travels through natural and artificial landscapes to help us chew and digest our materials (and their leftovers) needed for production of media and energy. The waste that slowly floats in the air. Piles of garbage, toxic chemicals and oils bursts from the grounds marking the success of consumerist culture.

Geno

Dato Kiknavelidze/12:47/Georgia/Animation/2017

Toad Geno and his neighbors are forced to seek a new habitat because a construction site invades the pond where they live. Geno cares only for himself. But then he realizes that they’ll only survive if they all help each other.

Fourth Wall

Dimitris Gkotsis /9:37/Greece/Documentary/2018

“Fourth Wall” is the side of the society that remains invisible, but similar throughout the globe. The only significant difference is people’s characteristics. A world that is reproducing it self in order to produce, surviving rather instinctively. The film is based on the notes of a ten-month trek.
