Fossil Falls poster
NR

Through the alchemical materialization of hand-processed 16mm film, ’Fossil Falls’ uncovers a charge and vibration in the natural world. The camera traverses the desert in an embodied relationship with non-human life forms, exposing a sense of desire, narrative, and point of view in the non-human. Thus, there is a kind of crisis in trying to hold onto, know, or truly become that which is unknown, or outside of the human.

Detours poster
NR

A sprawling meditation on the choreography of bodies in Moscow's urban landscape, Detours depicts a new way of dealing illicit drugs via the Darknet, the layering of the physical and the virtual realities, as well as a poetics, and politics, of space. Taking place in sleepy neighbourhoods, among the concrete walls of high-rises, behind garages and amidst abandoned railroads, the film alternately follows and loses track of Denis, the treasureman who hides stashes of drugs all over the city.

Recollection of a walk through Los Angeles poster
NR

The film resembles a memory with its lacunes, blurriness and sensuality. This is what it seems one saw some months ago wandering around Los Angeles.
