Screening Copy: digital
Two points of view from the same sequence of takes are presented through two separate frames. Sculptures come alive while a human face tries to insert itself between them. The search for the truth about points of view questions the images of this video. The vibratory movement, at different paces, crosses both screens and provokes a scintillation of images. The presence of the sculptures becomes uneasy. The pictures come and go under the effect of this moving light. Here takes place a battle between the memory and the disappearance of these images. By exploring various thresholds of visibility, a reflexion on remanence occurs. Are we closer to the images or to their obliteration?

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.
