Artémis

Artemis is not a Cinématon in the strict sense of the term since the person being filmed - Artemis - is not an individual but a statue! This portrait is therefore not part of the Cinématon anthology and is, consequently, outside the collection. In Greek mythology, Artemis, filmed here on the Acropolis in Athens, was the goddess of the hunt, childbirth, and the moon. Of course, this Cinematon is not a real one, but it gives a fairly precise idea of ​​what the one of the goddess Artemis could have been like if the cinematograph had been invented more than 2000 years earlier!

Sweet Childhood

While packing up before a move, cartoonist Zviane comes across an old audiocassette that plunges her back into her childhood fantasies and perceptions of the world. Based on a real-life recording, Sweet Childhood is a playful animated short with two narrators—namely, the Zvianes of past and present. Guided by her own voice from 30 years ago, the celebrated author of Les deuxièmes employs a range of techniques to evoke the naïve charm of children’s drawings, giving graphic form to her quirky, youthful narrative. The result is a hilarious short that questions just how “sweet” childhood really is. A slice of everyday life, courtesy of the Comic Strip Chronicles.

More & More

Hard to say exactly when did Israel turn from a country based on socialist ideals to a capitalist country, living the 'work-shop-throw out' dream. Is it the constant security threat that brings us to live and shop as if it was our last day? Why do the Banks and the authorities encourage over consumerism? And how does the fact the every third Israeli has no credit have to do with it? "More and More" tracks back the rise of Consumerism in Israel, from the first austerity days of the young country, to the piles of garbage of today.

Nothing to Hide

NOTHING TO HIDE is an independent documentary dealing with surveillance and its acceptance by the general public through the "I have nothing to hide" argument. The documentary was produced and directed by a pair of Berlin-based journalists, Mihaela Gladovic and Marc Meillassoux. It was crowdfunded by over 400 backers. NOTHING TO HIDE questions the growing, puzzling and passive public acceptance of massive corporate and governmental incursions into individual and group privacy and rights. After the emotion initially triggered by the Snowden revelations, it seems that the general public has finally accepted to live in a monitored digital world.

Laerte-se

In this film, Laerte conjugates the body in the feminine, and scrutinizes concepts and prejudices. Not in search of an identity, but in search of un-identities. Laerte creates and sends creatures to face reality in the fictional world of comic strips as a vanguard of the self. And, on the streets, the one who becomes the fiction of a real character. Laerte, of all the bodies, and of none, complicates all binaries. In following Laerte, this documentary chooses to clothe the nudity beyond the skin we inhabit.

Rules of Art

"Rules of Art" is a thriller as a genre, as well as love melodrama. Main character of the film is Daniel, a private investigator, who has his own agency in the city. During several cases related to infidelity, we discover the detective’s true passion, his lifetime obsession which is not directed on voyeuristic spying of other people’s lives, but towards capturing fragments of human destinies, moments which he freezes with his camera. This short film is a presentation of modern and estranged life, and on the other hand, true ode for the art.
