LUCKY
"Lucky" is looking for happiness. This animated short is questioning our search as well as its aim: What does luck mean for the individual? Is failure the only possibility?

Cowboyland
According to the rules of the Wild West, thieves must be punished. But when the sheriff's horse breaks, the rules are screwed.

Chaud Lapin
A common love story.

Port Nasty
At the edge of civilization, death lies in wait between every crack of ice and sheet of snow. In spite of this, a small, forgotten port town fights through the darkness to survive. In the midst of this world where every person and every action is held to account, a young man must prove his worth – not only to the ship's crew he dreams of joining, but himself.

Greetings from Hindeloopen
An evening walk through the small town Hindeloopen at the coast of the Ijsselmeer.

With Joy and Merriness
An experimental documentary observing, through every day scenes, the degeneration of a society where the rise of technology leads the population to the biggest dream of all men: immortality.

Shut Up Moon
It´s difficult to fit in, especially when you are new in town. A hand drawn animated short full of awkwardness, fun, an imaginary friend and the things that keep you up at night while your mind plays you a best-of compilation of today´s conversations.

Social Animals
A humorous sketch film about animals who exist in their everyday lives in body only, whilst their minds are elsewhere.

Apollo, Daphne and Darkness
A film about lust, desire and ruined relationship, inspired by the story of Apollo and Daphne. With his boundless desire Apollo completely destroyed the relationship which could have arisen between him and Daphne. Afterwards both had to acquire a new form of being.

A Morning Without Coffee
The coffee is gone. Hot air blazing over the desert. Look beyond. The horizon rubbers.

Electrofly
In a toilet, a small Fly flies around a lamp. Suddenly it gets an electric shock! The Fly lands on the wall and as it touches it, some drawings and advertising posters come to life. The drawings of a curious cat and a chicken begin to run after the Fly. Will they get it?

Sartre, Love and Sausages
What would be Sartre’s reflections about the absurd love of a butcher? 

No Exit
A film based on the play No Exit by Jean Paul Sartre. The main characters confirm their sins from their previous life. The animation is searching for its experimental form of expression to show the atmosphere of Sartre’s hell, whereas typography cooperates with the image, replacing the usual narrated dialogue. Boosting odd, unusual feelings and the feeling of uneasiness, experimental music has been made for the film by Rory Greenaway.
