Festival
Director: Bryan Konefsky
Experiments
in Cinema is an annual, transnational festival celebrating the
current trends and history of international cinematic
experimentation. Experiments in Cinema is a non-competitive festival
produced by Basement Films. This year we are celebrating our 17th
anniversary with a host of unique screenings (100 films from 30
countries). The goal of Experiments in Cinema is to bring the
international community of moving image artists to New Mexico to then
inspire a new generation of movie makers to recognize the value of
their media-voices and create films in ways we never imagined
possible. This
year the festival will also be hosting special performances,
lectures, workshops and presentations.
Made
possible with the generous support of The National Endowment for the
Arts, New Mexico Arts, The New Mexico Humanities Council, The McCune
Charitable Foundation, The Albuquerque Film Office, UNM’s
Department of Film And Digital Arts, Instituto Cervantes, and the
Albuquerque Community Foundation!
train
journey
A
simple video work about maybe a bit hackneyed message. About a group
of people with different culture backgrounds are waiting for the
train. The train arrives and they start their journey. However during
the journey the train encounters an obstacle.The
rail is broken. All the passengers and the machinist leave the train
looking at the rail and try to repair it. Finally they succeed in
fixing the rail and the train can continue it’s journey. At the
beginning they do not know each other, but through a problem they
begin all work together, regardless of their culture background,
status, colour or gender.
