Poetika Anima is a non-narrative animated film based on a lyrical poem created by the synthesis of director’s diary notes.

  • 8 min.

A moody portrayal of the moment we stop loving others and fall in love with our fantasies. If we cannot understand each other, maybe our avatars can find a common language? But whatever lies below the surface should stay that way. We are fine. Our lives are milk and honey.

Unsafe Land

Unsafe Land

  • Marcell Szénási
  • Hungary, 2017
  • 9 min.

A boy is leaving home, going through the city and becoming a part of the annoying atmosphere what is all around the street and the people. Nonsense death cases and pointless situations come in his way, they can be surprising for the spectator but not for the kid because he easily gets over these general happenings, and goes on. The film recalls an impression, and all the acts are trying to force this effect. Everything happens inconsistently like in a dream while we are going away from reality.
