Deconstructing Rapture

by on Jun.05, 2011, under Short Films

Deconstructing Rapture is inspired by the Gospel of Thomas:113 – the kingdom of God is all around us, but people don’t see it, including those preparing for rapture now and then when some pastor announces it. Please find a more detailed explanation here.

Made for the 20th DVChallenge at www.dvinfo.net. A surreal take on the challenge theme “instructional video”.

Movements Between Moments

by on Oct.20, 2010, under Short Films

Open your mind’s eye to other realities and experiences. In between moments of time these are the eternal movements of being happening at every point of existence.
Even now atoms all around and in you are vibrating with phenomenal speed, your cells are decaying, the Sun is nearing its end, but usually we do not notice these natural dynamics of our universe, because we are so preoccupied with our own self created illusory time and space of everyday.
Inspired by and dedicated to the Christian mystic of the 17th century Angelus Silesius we offer you to see this film and some of the movements between moments.

Dream Lover is about a girl, who dreams. She dreams herself and her lover, and the game is between herself and herself. She lives and is born from her experiences in the dream realm. Alas, “it is never just a dream”.
