The willpower fights versus the pleasure of the comfort inside of “Alfredo”, a coarse representation of the modern sedentary man. One morning the electricity goes off, and takes the televisión with it, his loyal and distractor friend. When Alfredo finds out that he has been locked in, spends the rest of the day in an ridiculous odisey to escape from home.
Director: Leigh Anthony DEHANEY.

Pianoworks 13 is a short movie, which combines live action and motion design. On a original soundtrack played by Polerik Rouviere, four dancers perform different styles (break dance, new style, popping). The film illustrates the link between body, instrument and instrumentalist. The moves give birth to a sort of calligraphic language which is a representation of the moves themselves.
The Taos Shortz Film Fest is dedicated to showing quality short films from around the world, by screening submissions and jury selections. Our mission is to provide indie filmmakers a venue
and public exposure of their work, as well as a place for filmmakers to network. TSFF also provides
an educational and cultural opportunity for the general public to see and discuss these films.
Director: Eni Brandner.
Synopsis
Granica, Grenze, Border - dividing line between two religions, two cultures - between majoritarian Serbian respectively Croatian areas.
Twelve years after the end of the conflict about the 'Republic of Serbian Krajina' in the Yugoslavian/Croatian war (1991-1995), the traces of altercation are still present.
Delapidated, destroyed houses - partly sitting right next to minefields, or in the middle of townscapes, waiting for their owners - act as unintentional memorials, warding off oblivion.
The former inhabitants or their descendants/heirs return only slowly to the area rendered improvident by the Yugoslavian war. What persists are half abandoned villages and scarcely inhabited cities in the hinterland, off the beaten track, which still haven't recovered from the times of war.
Filmed in Zitnic, Drnis, Sibenik and Tepljuh (Croatia) in 2008, in locations
around the area of the temporary border of the internationally not recognized
'Republic of Serbian Krajina'. After the 'Log Revolution' in August 1990 this
area became one of the focal points in the Yugoslavian/Croatian
war 1991-1995.
Director: Slaven Zimbrek.
Horrified by the place and surrounded by aliens, the main character loses his sanity in a shopping mall.
Magma has always focused
exclusively on the short film, considering it as a separate art form,
as a format allowing the experimentation of new styles and the creation
of new trends. The festival offers a chance of visibility for high-value works that
are often precluded from the main distribution channels. Its aim is to
build a bridge between the audience and the endless forms of expression
of the short format.
MIX, the longest-running queer film festival in NYC, has presented experimental film, video and installation art annually since 1987, and is the premier festival of its kind, having influenced a direction in current media through its films.
