Description
A programme of experimental films by young Russian and international filmmakers. Urban spaces emerge as materialized memory, preserving traces of human presence and historical time, while old cassettes and photographs come vividly to life on screen. These films explore how space shapes memory and perception, creating a dialogue between time, the body, and a sense of place. The works employ a wide range of media, from old digital cameras and video games to 8mm film.

OBLIVION
Description

A lone passenger is reflected in the windows of a train bound for Minsk, as shifting layers of visual textures pass by. During his absence, the city has remained unchanged: frozen streets, voices long gone, and old video games haunt his return.

Description

A diary film about a journey through the ever-changing Parisian landscape, seen through a barely discernible low-fi lens.
Small Private Property
Description
Everything burns with love. Hidden memories settle like a thin layer of ash. A love story about a fire, pieced together from audiotapes found at Udelny Market.
Language Decay
Description
Russian premiere
Days spent by the filmmaker with her grandmother are captured on a broken camera and three rolls of film. The celluloid decays along with speech in a language foreign to Zazie.
White Earth, Black Air

The air is thick with moths and black midges. The frozen ground does not retain moisture at all. A man is resurrected, accompanied on his luminous path through the trees by the white god.
