WHERE YOU FIND SHELTER

ONCE WE GET THERE
Polak Van Bekkum
Experimental / USA/Netherlands / 2015

Dutch visual artists Esther Polak and Ivar van Bekkum lived 7 months in Philadelphia. Totally new to the city, they invited inhabitants, both human and non human, to explain their city through movement. Wandering by themselves, they recorded their trajectories, sounds and private readings of the streets, allowing the artists to access their experiences only afterwards. The video positions the viewer, with the artists, as unwitting voyeurs.
A radical and innovative visual approach introduces a landscape of satellite images and balances between voyeurism and empathic co-traveling. The meditative film questions our contemporary techo-society, where eavesdropping and social connectivity coexist.

A PERFECT PLACE
Ein idealer Ort
Anatol Schuster
Children, Comedy, Drama / Germany / 2015

Life on the land is undergoing a fundamental change: the villages are dying out, people go away, the houses remain empty. Frank is facing a major change: the decision to move to the city for his family the only future promising solution. A tragicomic film about a family between techno and brass bands and a place between nature reserve and piglets factory.
