sadescription Postcard from Harbin
6mn   color   sil   2008   USA
by Neil Needleman
Scenes, surfaces, movement, light, and pulsations captured on video in Harbin, China. A dense, slowly morphing translucent curtain of visual counterpoint. Images dissolve on, live their brief life on the screen, and imperceptibly dissolve off, only to be replaced a new layer of imagery and sensations.

sadescription Au fur que tu perdras la vue
9mn20   color   stéréo   2008   France
by Philippe Rouy
A split screen : a staircase landing seen from an eyepiece and rabbit corpses going adrift. Between the two images, a blind spot.

sadescription Georgic for a Forgotten Planet
13mn   color   mono   2009   USA
by Lynne Sachs
I began reading Virgil's "Georgics", a 1st Century epic agricultural poem, and knew immediately that I needed to create a visual equivalent about my own relationship to the place where I live, New York City. The film is culled from material I collected at Coney Island, the Lower East Side, Socrates Sculpture Garden in Queens, a Brooklyn community garden and a place on Staten Island that is so dark you can see the three moons of Jupiter. It is a homage to a place many people affectionately and mysteriously call the big apple.

sadescription travelers
2mn33   color & b/w   stéréo   2009   USA
by Dan Nadaner
To be in a place, but to be always in motion, to be passing by, to be drifting even in the stationary moment of sleep. The film explores the duality of presence and absence, feeling at home and feeling distant.

sadescription Image de la plaine
2mn   b/w   stéréo   2009   Italy
by Michele Santini
Few times a week we used to go to visit my grandparents in an other village five kilometers south from where we lived. My grandparents were nice people, old farmers very friendly and hilarious. They were my mother's father and mother and even if she used to say that they did not treat her good when she was a kid I had nothing against them. They lived in an old house in the countryside with lots of animals. I remember that single day because while my mother was chatting with her mother and my grandfather was out, I sneaked into my uncle's room and by chance I found under his bed a porn magazine.

sadescription Dust in the River
8mn55   color   stéréo   2008   Taiwan
by Yu Chang Yu
Living in the border area of urban, everyone is like the dust of marsh. We flow together with stagnated water and become the muddy stream. My sentiment, my mood, my anxious and any fluid from my body inside all also flow into the space and time of the muddy stream, can’t stop stirring unceasingly...
