Augur
A harsh winter freezes the surface of a river, close to a house where two cousins live. Immersed in the cold wind that rises that day, the rudeness of their relationship grows, reaching its limit.
Blue Hands
In an abstract journey about grief and denial a woman tries to escape the ghosts of her past, but they catch up to her on a night-bus to Nowhere.
Engine of Progress
A trippy animated video for Russian rap-star Oxxxymiron featuring Ka-tet.
The song about perfectionism in art and life. Ones are controlling the roll of the Engine of Progress, others are just its passengers.
F I N K E L : “w / o”
A subway train through the confused mind of someone who just can't let go.
Mamoon
Told entirely using projected animation onto polystyrene film sets, Mamoon follows the story of a mother and her infant child who are forced to leave their home when mysterious, dark shadows envelop the light in which they exist. As her own light begins to fade, she is forced to use a strange red light to save her child.
Marfa
A town on the borderlands of Texas. A place out of time. A desert where strange lights dance in the night sky. A mecca for lovers of minimalist art. A landscape of lost horses, freaks and food trucks. And then there’s the giant lemon.
Night Walks
Tonight, Anna and her dad have decided to walk home through the forest. Anna
takes a torch and dad lights it up for her. The silent forest is as enchanting, as it is
scary and the bright flame as protective as it is blinding.
RIPPLE
A winter afternoon at the swimming pool...
Wildebeest
Going on a safari is the absolute dream holiday for middle-aged couple Linda and Troyer. Sadly enough, their wildlife experience turns into a nightmare when they get left behind. Through mixed media (combining live-action and animation), Wildebeest tells a surprisingly touching story of a couple in crisis - albeit with tons of effective gags.
