"Che" is an interjection and a very popular Argentine expression. It is used to get someone's attention without using their name (che kid! or che, come here!) or to emphasize something (che, how expensive!). How long does a che last in a work of art? In a movie? Che is a 16 mm work that lasts 1 frame of an orphan slice of pizza lying on the sidewalk. 1 second of your life, 1 frame that lasts an instant. Che crazy, the Margherita slice! How many che did you eat in your life? A frame that lasts a lifetime, a frame that lasts a whole pizza, a che for life. A film of record proportions... or of infinite portions? This work is an appropriation of the film Hey! (1981) by artist Dean Snider that uses a photograph from the Pizza Of Death series by artist Natalí Albornoz. 6 unique 16 mm prints numbered with hand-scratched titles.

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.
