Bryan Away: The Lake
2020 16+ 5 min
by Qianwen Yu
Lake is liquid, inanimate, emotionless. Like blood flowing through a body, the water circulates and sustains, bringing life to its surroundings. In this video, life is continuously reborn through the raindrops, through the terrain and into the air. The beauty of this process is juxtaposed with the songwriter’s perspective, someone who is detached and yearning to feel the full breadth of human emotion.

People should be happy. Even this Egyptian goose, who tries to cast a spell on us with a seductive dance. Its gracious and clumsy movements captivate us. But it’s not the only one to master the dance.

CI3: Obzor
2021 16+ 4 min
by Alexandra Májová, Martin Máj
A poetic video clip from the workshop of the Máj author pair introduces us to an imaginary landscape in which, with the help of simple symbolism, we follow the problematic relationship between a man and a woman. The graphic aesthetic is dominated by the motif of the hands that the heroes manipulate against the background of the themed horizon.
