COR, 5min., France, Dance
Directed by SimonaGun aka, Nicolas Simon, Virna Hagen Auvergne
Cor is a choreographic film shot in Lanzarote that features a tribe of enigmatic dancers with faces marked with symbols ready to pluck the sky. In a frantic race towards elsewhere, they will unite in a trance that will allow them to leave a form of reality. This trance is like a heartbeat and a jerky breath. This lung is the engine that gives the impulse to “the unhooked jump” to leave only bodies and cries.

FADE, 4min., China, Dance
Directed by Yuxi Jiang
This film expresses the interweaving of small individuals between nature and the city. The waves and cars in their respective convergent paces tell the wandering of the current state of mind. The pursuit of ideals and reality seems to be the madness and fantasy of red wine, becoming more and more similar, as unpredictable as a deep ocean. Where will I go in the end?
