Akeji, the Breath of the Mountain
New product!In Japan's Himuro Valley, Akeji and Asako seem to have lived forever in a hermitage, surrounded by animals and the spirits of nature. Season after season, Asako gathers plants to transform into pigments, while Akeji prays and devotes himself to painting. The cycle of nature appears unchanging. Yet time crackles, and reality eventually catches up with them...
Born in 1969 in Borneo lowland rain forests, Nénette has just turned 40. It’s extremely rare for an orangutan to reach that age! Residing at the menagerie of the Jardin des Plantes in Paris since 1972, she’s been there longer than any member of the staff. An undisputed star of the place, she sees hundreds of visitors pass by her cage each day. Naturally, everyone has their own comments to make...
A Year Along the Abandoned Road
New product!The film is a portrait of a deserted fisherman’s village in Northern Norway, shot on analog 65/70mm film with a specially developed "nature animation" technique. In one continuous shot, we "fly" along the remains of an internal village road, while at the same time a whole year passes by at 50 000 times normal speed. Most of the year, the village of Børfjord lies empty with virgin snow between c...
A magical journey along the remains of a narrow-gauge railway in southeastern Norway. Using a specially developed animation technique and filmed on large-format film, the movie takes us swiftly along the tracks of the _Tertitten_, which used to be a sideline to the main railway between Oslo and Stockholm.
Co-founder of the Institute of Contemporary Arts, Herbert Read (1893-1968) was an influential art critic, poet and committed anarchist. In his 1943 essay, _To Hell with Culture_, Read laid out his ideas for a civilisation based on cooperation in which culture would no longer be a commodity, separated from society, but an integral part of everyday life. In this film, director Huw Wahl engages in...
Shot on location at the Low Four studio in Manchester, this film features poet Stephen Watts reciting his poem _I AM A FILM_, a coda to _The Liberated Film Club_ by Stanley Schtinter. Accompanied by the filmmaker who films him in a way that merges his presence with the recitation, the process unfolds through the use of analog material, close-ups of his face and expressions, and the grain of hi...
Part observation, part performance, and a collaboration between father and son, _Everything Lives_ looks at how Ken experiences time in the barns where he works; the time he spends playing, the time unique to painting or the time it takes to build a whole life. This short 16mm film is an intimate series of surfaces, sounds and events that together form their subject: the artist as father.
In 2017, author Elzéa Foule Aventurin engaged in a series of interviews with her granddaughter. Together, they retrace, not without mischief, a family history sailing from one end of the Black Atlantic to the other. A story of silence, pride and revolt.
