by Michelle Kranot, Uri Kranot
It is bitterly cold in the inner city neighborhoods, and yet people come together. I watch them form a line on the horizon. We wait for something to happen. But nothing does. We have come together to witness an event. To participate in a spectacle. To see and be seen.

Musical Traumas
2018 16+ 10 min
by Miloš Tomić
Musical Traumas came to fruition as the result of the director’s obsession with music schools. It is a rhythmic compilation of traumatic, but amusing confessions of former students, as well as an attempt to visualise music with scrumptious, hand-drawn animation. The experiences may be documentary, but the image comes straight from the world of musical impressions.
