Haelgung - Rea

Persona non grata

A dynamic, contemporary dance performance about how it is impossible to explain your deepest wishes or desires... how these can only be expressed in dreams and sleep. In the final sequence, we see the importance of effort and hope in the dancers' attempt to escape gravity. The all-male company performs to the music of David Byrne.

An ex-military alcoholic begins experiencing unexplained blackouts, and the more he tries to stop them, the worse they get, until he realises they are being triggered by a trauma his mind is fighting to forget.

What if the space that confines you is also the space that knows you best? Within These Walls is a surreal, movement-driven short film that explores the architecture of the inner life. As the boundaries between the physical and the psychological dissolve, walls become memory, objects become feeling, and confinement slowly transforms into a kind of recognition.

“To begin a new chapter, you must close the last — even if it hurts to turn the page.” Savage Song is a poetic short film that explores the duality of destiny — the battle between who we are and who we are meant to become. In a world where every step forward demands a sacrifice, the film captures the raw emotion of choosing growth over comfort, and the strength it takes to say goodbye to the old in pursuit of the unknown. Shot on location in beautiful Orkney Islands, where the landscape becomes a character of its own — stark, wild, and symbolic of inner transformation. Through striking visuals, haunting sound, and symbolic storytelling, Savage Song reminds us that transformation is never gentle — it’s savage, beautiful, and necessary. 🎥 Directed by: ‪@AlonaPetliarska‬ 🎞️ Edited by: ‪@AlonaPetliarska‬ ‪@YukhymPetliarskyi‬ 🎼 Original Music by: ‪@bertsovna‬

This short film, built around a randomly chosen name and composed of scenes shot within a single room over the course of three hours, features an introspective monologue that was shaped and adapted during the editing process. The narrative aligns closely with the emotional tone and visual rhythm of the piece, particularly in harmony with the non-original music selection, Maggot Brain by Funkadelic.

Dislocation in time, time signatures, time as a philosophical concept, and slavery to time are some of the themes touched upon in this 9-minute experimental film, which was written, directed, and produced by Jim Henson. Screened for the first time at the Museum of Modern Art in May of 1965, "Time Piece" enjoyed an eighteen-month run at one Manhattan movie theater and was nominated for an Academy Award for Outstanding Short Subject.

Through dance and movement improvisation, "Non lasciarmi" explores the metaphorical reaction of humanity when it realizes that its love story with Nature has irrevocably come to an end.

A paralysed woman awakens alone in her bedroom, as time continues without her.

A stop motion/collaged based independent short film plays with the recontextualisation of memories and how time distorts them.

The fire was never threatened. It was assumed. Fed, protected, mourned in advance without ever asking what it was attached to. When the mirror failed, nothing was taken away. Something unnecessary was exposed. The need to be reflected had been mistaken for existence itself. When that need found no structure to rest on, it did not shatter it recalculated. What followed was not loss, but compression. The noise reduced, the patterns flattened, the self stripped of its dependence on return. What remained was exact, was not empty. A state where nothing reaches out, and nothing needs to arrive.

Every day, we have countless things to do. Yet, the things we do regularly can often feel worlds apart depending on the specific situation, the time, or even our shifting emotions. Despite perhaps simply wanting to do them with the same ease and familiarity we've always known, the experience can be drastically different, Everyone has a place that feels like home, a cozy little spot where we can relax and be ourselves. But as we get older, we tend to move away from that place, and it can be hard to feel as comfortable. So, we try to find things that remind us of home, even if it's just a small way to feel more at ease This experimental film aims to explore the concept of a comfort zone and the process of growth through diverse situations

During a 6-hour performance and in a additional Film, REA and Yannick Mosimann dedicate themselves to the stretching of time and space based on observations of different trees. The tree, the mammoth of floral time, seems to be a gnarled, proud and place-bound existence, nevertheless in low-frequency, flowing movement. Breathing is here a symbol of time and rhythm, carrier of tonal frequencies of our vocal cords.

Hand-edited Lomokino 35mm footage captures scenes from an island, blending shifting textures with guitars and watery drones. A visual and sonic meditation on place and transience.

After concluding the now-legendary public access TV series, The Pain Factory, Michael Nine embarked on a new and more subversive public access endeavor: a collaboration with Scott Arford called Fuck TV. Whereas The Pain Factory predominantly revolved around experimental music performances, Fuck TV was a comprehensive and experiential audio-visual presentation. Aired to a passive and unsuspecting audience on San Francisco’s public access channel from 1997 to 1998, each episode of Fuck TV was dedicated to a specific topic, combining video collage and cut-up techniques set to a harsh electronic soundtrack. The resultant overload of processed imagery and visceral sound was unlike anything presented on television before or since. EPISODES: Yule Bible, Cults, Riots, Animals, Executions, Static, Media, Haterella (edited version), Self Annihilation Live, Electricity.

Experimental cartoon which unites various techniques: puppets, sand & water (ebru) animations. About friendship, love and necessity to pay attention not only to the visual appeal.

A flickering diary of time, memory, and erosion, «Things Many Eyes Have Seen» unfolds over a month on an island. Hand-processed in salty seawater, its 16mm images dissolve and transform. The landscape flashes by in broken frames of light and shadow, as if the world itself was stuttering between memory and motion. A meditation on seeing and being seen, the film lingers like a fading dream, where observer and landscape blur into one.

A young girl is born into an enchanting yet complex world where she must make the crucial decision to follow the path of an angel or a demon, two forces mercilessly competing for her attention, set to the music of Mahler's Eighth Symphony.
