  • Arabic Numeral Series – Arabic 8

    This series of films, each extraordinarily unique from every other (except “0 + 10” going together) is inspired and governed by strata of the mind’s moving-visual-thinking different from that of the “Roman Numeral Series” or perhaps one should say that the Arabic Numerals come to fruition thru some tree-of nerves separate from that which gave birth to the Romans (as it is physiologically deceptive to think of thought as existing in “layers”). The Arabics range in length from approximately 5 min. to 32 min. and may be projected at 24 fps as well as 18, tho’ the latter speed seems…

  • Local Knowledge

    “David Rimmer’s film is at once a somber and celebratory meditation on time and place. Its title, ‘Local Knowledge’, is marine terminology for what a skipper must know when navigating dangerous waters. Rimmer is an experienced sailor and the film’s spiritual and geographical center is aptly named Storm Bay, where he spends his summers. But it’s a troubled site. The camera, moving with tide and swell, seems to strain anxiously at its anchor and it becomes clear from here on in nothing will ever be at rest. Local Knowledge won’t save anyone anymore. “Rimmer’s film shatters the comforting dualities of…

  • Lockjaw

    A babbling talking cure; an explanation; a walking tongue; a description of the juncture between I and you; the difference between what I feel and what I know; the body, the mind and what stands between – LOCKJAW.

  • Look! We Have Come Through!

    “A revelation of the editing process…done with remarkable care and precision…. The interrelationship between moving body and moving camera is heightened to the intensity of a struggle.” – Joyce Nelson

  • Loom, The

    A multiple-superimposition hand-painted visual symphony of animal life on earth. “The Loom” might be compared to musical quartet-form (as there are almost always four superimposed pictures); but the complexity of texture, multiplicity of tone, and the variety of inter-related rhythm suggest symphonic dimensions. The film is very inspired by George Melies: the animals exist (in Jane’s enclosure) as on a stage, their interrelationships edited to the disciplines of dance, so therefore one might say this hardly represents “animal life on earth”; but I would argue that this work at least epitomizes theatrical Nature, magical Creature, and is the outside limit,…

  • Lost in the no-zone

    Guillaume’s obsession: prove that angels exist. Guillaume seeks proof, but the world he inhabits escapes definition. He doesn’t know, but he’s lost in the no-zone. A film made entirely from still photographs with animation… Angels, murder, mystery and intrigue… a sensual journey into the real of the fantastic. A fantasy photo novel in film.

  • Lotería

    “Lotería” is an impressionistic documentary comprised of a series of interviews with street vendors, lottery officials, and the children responsible for drawing the winning numbers. These children, referred to as “gritones” (they literally shout out the numbers), are employed because their innocence is considered incorruptible. Rather than taking a conventional reportage approach, “Lotería” presents Mexico’s lottery as a visual and auditory phenomenon. The illusionary quality of the lottery as a part of Mexico’s cultural history is represented through the textured layers of the film’s sound and photography. Shot on both colour and black and white, Super 8 and 16mm, with…

  • LOVERFILM – eine unkontrollierte Freisetzung von Information | LOVERFILM – An Uncontrolled Dispersio

    “Blurring the line between friends, lovers and maybe even complete strangers, Brynntrup presents a video catalogue of his brushes with intimacy, intercut with grainy stills and retro porn.” – Inside Out Lesbian & Gay Film & Video Festival, Toronto 1998
