This second volume assembles eight films and videos by artists presented during the 6th Different Cinema Festival of Paris.
This is a rare collection that mixes both video and film based works as an antidote to the worn out arguments over the merits of different formats. The films presented here straddle the territories of experimental film and video art. These works refuse to be categorized through traditional distribution channels. Though each film uses different techniques and materials, they all share a common desire and willingness to explore new ways of making art with moving images.
The compilation is oriented around three different approaches : feminitiy, investigation and the search for identity, three themes that are from from being definitive or exclusive. Artémis (Valérie Morignat), Flamen’co (Olivier Fouchard) and Lily in the Glass (Shiho Kano) describe three different feminin worlds. Da qui, sopra il mare (Mauro Santini) and Déperdition lointaine (Dominik Lange) are each, in their own way, following a path of investigation, whether it be regarding family or topography. The following films cover the topic of searching for one’s identity : Perhaps/We (Solomon Nagler), K (Désert) (Frédérique Devaux) and F.I.R.T. 119 (Ruben Guzman), three works about travel and returning to the source.
