PROGRAMME :
Ghost by Takashi Ito (JP)
1984 / 16mm / couleur / sonore / 6’ / proposé par Mire
“I made this work because I wanted to try out the idea of floating images in midair that had come to me when making Thunder. The entire work was shot frame-by-frame with long exposures. I filmed this in the company dorm I was living in in the middle of the night after I had come home from work, and thought I might die from what had become my daily pattern of sleeping for two hours in the morning then going off to work.” – Takashi Ito
La aparición de Tezcatlipoca (chapitre 1 et 2) by Annalisa D. Quagliata (MX)
2018 / 16mm / couleur et noir&blanc / sonore / 15′ / proposé par MIRE
A portrait of Mexico City in 16mm using handmade techniques of filmmaking. This film calls upon images of the pre-hispanic past of the city through the lense of the contemporary landscape.
NYC RGB de Viktoria Schmid (AT/US)
2023 / 16mm / couleur / sonore / 7′ / proposé par MIRE
“With NYC RGB Viktoria Schmid shows us a view of New York that we’ve never seen before, made possible by historical color film processes. The material, triple exposed with different color filters, mixes colors, space, and time to a perception that is possible only in film. Evidence of cinema’s potential for bursting open reality. The film is part of a series of works in which Schmid looks back to early color film processes.”
Musique de Liew Niyomkarn.
Rode Molen by Esther Urlus (NL)
2013 / 16 mm / sonore / 5’ / proposé par Mire
“A research into motion picture printing techniques. Starting point and inspiration for the film are the mill paintings of Piet Mondriaan, especially Rode Molen. In the film color is created by multiple exposures through different masks during printing. Depending what developing process is used the colors mix in two ways: additive or subtractive.”
Hong Kong (HKG) by Gerard Holthuis, NL
1999 / 35mm / sonore / 12’ / proposé par Filmwerkplaats
“In 1998 Kai Tak airport in the middle of Hong Kong was closed. Approaching Kai Tak was a unique experience for the passengers . «One could read the newspapers in the street» one passenger exclaimed. Hong Kong (HKG) is a film about the approach and the passing by of the airplanes in the middle of a city. An observation at the end of this century.”
Les Horizons by Antoine Ledroit & Wilfried Thierry
2024 / projection 16mm et son live / couleur / 10′
Tourné sur différentes plages de Saint-Nazaire et des environs.
