Black Light - The Fundamentals of “Film”

18 – 19 June 2011
Experimental Cinema


This selection entitled "Black Light" brings together 5 films that cut across different genres including science fiction, alternative cinema, and abstract art. The selected films co-exist in the common ambience of a universe in black and white. Each filmmaker aims to express their artistic sensibility using film-based light (16mm films, super 8, photography, darkroom techniques.) This compilation by Label Ombres in collaboration with Lowave has created digitized editions of these shorts for the first time.
