    2016 16+ 12 min

    by Marie-Hélène Turcotte

    Red of the Yew Tree is the crossing of a feminine and universal imagination, an odyssey inked in fine point. A pheasant hunt is the occasion of a voyage that is at once delicate and mightily evocative, under the breath of maternal love and the transmission of a shared feminine condition. It is a vast intimate adventure unfolds, as equivocal as it is precise, through an intuitive hunt and a recovered collective memory.

    by Borbála Tompa

    We follow the story of five immigrants in Budapest, two of whom still live here as refugees. We touch upon various levels of their life – from the banal to the serious. In economic theory, “random walk” means that stock market prices cannot be predicted. Each time, the price has a fifty-fifty chance of closing higher or lower than the previous day. It means that we don’t know how – or where the life of these people going further.

    Protoplasm is the living substance of the cell. It is the fluid basis of life, an inner organism with thoughts and feelings. Everything pulsates, expands and contracts. Sometimes we reach out and contract at the same time, causing a conflict that prevents fluids from moving. Fear and anxiety arise, and we become immobile.
