Aqua Viva (2018, 6’) - Alexa Lim Haas

Agua Viva is a gentle, empathetic look into the inner world of a Chinese manicurist who works in a strip mall in Florida–as she struggles with self-image issues, loneliness, and finding the words to describe how she feels, in a language she doesn’t fully know. Set almost entirely in a nail shop, the film accents the daily routines of Mei Mei. with rich, watercolor textures and poignant details that are specific to one character but universally relevant.

Colour Poems (1974 , 11') - Margaret Tait

"In 25 years of unremitting application to the film medium, Margaret Tait has evolved the style that allows her to display and offer what Alfred Kazin, writing of Simone Weil, called "a loving attentiveness to all the living world ". That definition of her philosophy, of her method, holds true, whether the setting is an Edinburgh street, the banks of an Orkney burn, a domestic interior or a human face. Unlike so much that is called experimental and avant-garde, her films are not merely exercises in perception. Her film images are accessible (A thistle is invariably a thistle), they are of the everyday, and, at one level, a presentation of things as they are. But, in their framing, in their rhythmical patterning, in their duration, those images offer a vision of the mystery and ambiguity with which so-called common objects are saturated. " Alex Pirie 1977.

Forestkeeper (2021, 7’) - Alisa Karo

A secluded forest where the border between caring and controlling behavior slowly blurs. A bizarre figure takes it upon itself to take care of a desolate forest while braving the cold and loneliness of the wilderness.
