Max Morrison
Žiga Pokorn (NuFrame)
Slovenia, 2017, digital, 1'56"

Max Morrison, a couch potato from New Zealand, lazily watches TV, slowly being consumed by the programme.

Muzičke traume / Musical Traumas
Miloš Tomić (Dribbling Pictures)
Serbia, 2018, digital, 10'26"

Musical Traumas came to fruition as the result of the director's obsession with music schools. It is a rhythmic compilation of traumatic, but amusing confessions of former students, as well as an attempt to visualise music with scrumptious, hand-drawn animation. The experiences may be documentary, but the image comes straight from the world of musical impressions.

Dva na dva / Two for Two
Jelena Oroz (Bonobostudio)
Croatia, 2018, digital, 8'

A moody portrayal of the moment we stop loving others and fall in love with our fantasies. If we cannot understand each other, maybe our avatars can find a common language? But whatever lies below the surface should stay that way. We are fine. Our lives are milk and honey. Everyone pets their own bunny.

Nakts Pastaigas / Night Walks
Lizete Upite (Atom Art)
Latvia, 2018, digital, 5'50"

Tonight, Anna and her dad have decided to walk home through the forest. Anna takes a torch and dad lights it up for her. The silent forest is as enchanting as it is scary and the bright flame as protective as it is blinding.

Biciklisti / Cyclists
Veljko Popović (Lemonade3d/Krupni Kadar/3d2d Animatori/Bagan Films)
Croatia, France, 2018, digital, 7'20" 

The cycling season is nearing its grand finale. During the final race, the two men in the lead are competing for more than the Grand Trophy; they are fighting for the affection of a lady and fulfilment of their erotic fantasies. Meanwhile, the small port town prepares for the arrival of a large ocean liner and its dashing captain.

Briljantsuse Demonstratsioon Neljas Vaatuses / A Demonstration Of Brilliance In Four Acts
Morten Tšinakov, Lucija Mrzljak (Eesti Joonisfilm/Adriatic Animation)
Estonia, Croatia, 2018, digital, 15'03"

People are waiting for someone special. Someone special is born – a grown-up man in a suit. They follow the man and cheer for his theatrical but utterly pointless performances. In the middle of a performance, he makes a mistake and the people who have so far adored him, leave. Left alone, he meets a woman who is made for him. The theatrical performances continue…

Vlnění / Waves
Vojtěch Domlátil (Vojtěch Domlátil)
Czech Republic, 2017, digital, 3'

A non-narrative pixilation of the Czech landscape. An observer, who clears his mind and constrains his means to work only with time and motion in space, can not only find pixilation rapture, but what is more: if he connects to "the wave", his journey will consume him completely.

Sellők és Rinocéroszok /Mermaids and Rhinos
Viktória Traub (Ddk Production)
Hungary, 2017, digital, 15'34"

Eight-year-old Tilda’s memories of her family as surrealistic visions come to life: the circus member ex-mermaid grandmother, the erotically overheated mother and the disappeared father whose broken heart, anger and jealousy manifest as a rhino.

Ten Skies Ten Skies

James Benning

Monday, 20. 04. 2026 / 18:00 / Main Hall

“I’m thinking of my landscape works now as anti-war artworks—they’re about the antithesis of war, the kind of beauty we’re destroying. The Ten Skies works came about because I’m thinking about what the opposite of war is” – James Benning

A highly entertaining and very timely satire filled with dark humour, vivid characters, and dizzying twists, following a family man who devises his own peculiar way of dealing with unemployment. Prepared over twenty years by Korean master Park Chan-wook (Oldboy, The Handmaiden), the film is among the leading contenders for an Academy Award nomination for Best International Feature Film.
