Colours everywhere! New Zealand artist Len Lye was a pioneer in experimental (and colour) film and combined Cuban dance music with hand-painted abstract designs in one of the first animations to be painted directly onto the film. Here, images become notes, sequences become tunes, colours become moods, the movement of an element becomes the change of pitch. Film becomes visual music. Dance along!
Adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s classical poem of non-sense verse, with dolls whose innocence is soon and grotesquely compromised.
A very special canard à l'orange.
Who is the creature built from people? Why is it wearing a crown and what is it doing with a pastoral in one hand and a sword in the other?
Personal mythology in a dream world, evoking childhood fantasies with humour and irony.
To be a routine traveler. No surprises at the starting point, no surprises at the point of arrival.
Film about class differences and artistic freedom versus state repression, drawing on images from classical art. The film was long held back from circulation.
