Q&A with Marie-Noëlle Robidas, moderated by Lisa Heuschober

Spaces morph, evolve, absorb one another, disappear. This program opens up new perspectives on ever transforming living spaces: spaces that we inhabit together or alone, that we create or defend, that persist or dissolve. Travelling through inner and outer spaces, the animation itself becomes an exploratory space – reflecting on the question which living spaces we need to create for our future.

Marie-Noëlle Moreau-Robidas, 2022, CA, 14 minutes

WHAT RHYMES WITH TOXIC

Lynn Smith, 2022, CA, 5 minutes

ZASIĆENJE / SATURATION

Lucija Bužančić, 2022, HR, 10 minutes

A cat is not the only one whose watchful eyes explore the city. Something is growing out of the cracks and walls, gradually occupying more and more space. Innumerable tourists – their gazes flooding the streets.

FINDING HOME

LEARNING DISABILITIES IN PRIMARY CARE

Ivyy Chen, 2022, GB, 6 minutes

NO SHORTCUTS

Kadi Sink, 2021, EE, 3 minutes

A little red car illegally dumps a bit of rubbish in the forest. But a human’s trash is a wild creature’s treasure, and soon a naïve bee happily explores the not so harmless garbage – with dire consequences not only for the forest.

Inside a plethora of party people, dancing, and chanting. Are they unaware of thepresence of a black toxic substance that threatens to drown them all or do they simply not want to see it?
