Six people imagine what could be on an undeveloped super8 cartridge of unknown origin. The resulting film is a free association based on those conversations preoccupied with perception and being perceived, the infinite, that which does not exist (yet), and the limitations of visualising imagination. The super8 cartridge will remain undeveloped.   'My films are collages that sit somewhere in between the formal and experiential. The creation process as well as the unfinished or incomplete are core concepts. I'm fascinated by objects, procedures and materials deemed lost, non-traditional, broken and obsolescent. They've been shown at the Viennale, Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, Mostra Internazionale del Nuovo Cinema (Pesaro Film Fest), Fantastic Fest Austin, A.Maze Berlin and the Netherlands Film Festival among many others. I reside in Zwolle, the Netherlands.'

Collectif Jeune Cinéma

The Collectif Jeune Cinéma (Young Cinema Collective) is a filmmakers’ cooperative founded in Paris on June 12th 1971.

The vocation of the CJC is to distribute different and experimental films of all lengths, gathered in a catalogue that is continuously enriched by new works. This catalogue covers a very wide spectrum of aesthetics and cinematographic practices. For example, it is the only one to include experimental films made by children and young flimmakers (under 18 yo).

See distribution details here.

The CJC is also an archive for films and documents on experimental and different cinema.

The MNEME catalogue management tool you are currently browsing has been designed to provide maximum clarity and readability for both distribution and the archive. It meets international audiovisual item indexing standards (FIAF).

Each year, the CJC organizes the Festival des Cinémas Différents et Expérimentaux de Paris (a festival featuring different and experimental cinema in Paris) and schedules regular screenings each month in Paris or Île-de-France.
