“I know you” is easier said than “I know myself.” Here, someone probes their own fear in a childlike voice and sketchy images. There are certain pieces of evidence, like the shovel used by a young woman to dig a deep hole. And there is that black thing that grabs her soul like a spider. A cautious and curious mutual approach in sometimes concrete, sometimes abstract ink drawings.

She shouts and whispers her wishes and dances compromise out of the world, just like that, because she wants it. An enthusiastic and colourful wake-up call for self-determination and lust for life.

A woman’s voice shouts and whispers her wishes, depending on how she feels and what she wants. Her cartoonishly reduced and exaggerated body dances compromise out of the world. Straight, zig-zag or in sweeping curves, on we go through the hustle and bustle of life. Anne Isensee formulates an enthusiastic wake-up call for self-determination and lust for life.

Empty and dense. Organic and geometrical. Mirrored and asymmetrical – these are just a few of the parameters playfully transformed by Réka Bucsi into an abstract cinematographic study.

Empty and dense. Organic and geometrical. Mirrored and asymmetrical. These are only some of the parameters playfully transformed into an abstract cinematic study by Réka Bucsi: a doubting line from which a second and a third consisting of sculptures looped around themselves soon spring. Bucsi continues her exploration: Which movements are reminiscent of legs, which of wings? Or is all this just a figment of our imagination?

During a ramble through the forest we see video colour fringes break through the shadows of the canopy. Rolls of thunder and birdsong spread as a deep red pixel moss carpet. Ambient sounds creep up from the distance to filter the visual world. Hallucinogenic data errors drag like scrapers across a discarded layer of paint. The forest becomes a cathedral for the eyes and ears.

Can an animation film be translated into words without reducing its visual complexity? A humorous and trenchant investigation into the subject of audio-descriptions.

A city crossing: Many things happen, one after the other, at the same time and sometimes inexplicable. Even in animated images reduced almost to symbols there is a lot to discover at this place. A speaker describes what is happening in words for people with visual impairments, but she increasingly questions the meaningfulness and translatability of what she sees.
