AT WORD’S END by Julius Stakišaitis 🚪 Unrelated strangers find out that they’ve got something in common. It’s the realisation that words cannot express what is truly going on inside them. Therefore, when words end, the image begins to speak.

GRAVITY by Duc-Thi Bui 🔊 A screenplay that becomes the music video for Gravity by Laima Adelaide, visualized by Marc Engenhart.

It’s all about the story... and the music.

“Instead of defining the image landscape for the audience, the director believes in us, the audience, as the creators of our own images, inspired by the music as much as by the words...” (Jury Statement, MuVi-Award 2023)

LA BALA DE SANDOVAL by Jean-Jacques Martinod 🦆 Isidro meanders through the rainforest while he and his brother recount the times he found himself face to face with death itself. A near-death experience can be a Rorschach test for how much weight we place on coincidence. Two such incidents would make anyone consider the existence of fate.

CROSSING PATHS by Éva Freund 👣 An experimental short film shot during a poetic, associative trek in the Finnish Lapland region. The film explores metaphorical meanings of routes that cross each other by reflecting on the local territorial and ecological issues of “paths” or “ways,” which could also be seen as conflicting components of the self. How could a journey to the North offer a solution? The film’s structure is based on Felix Guattari’s theory of the Three Ecologies, therefore it consists of three parts. The first one refers to subjectivity, the second to social relations and the third one to the environmental layer.

Curated by Oberhausen International Short Film Festival and streaming as part of the program “A Trip Through Europe — Landscape as a Political Space.”
