Artist duo DOPLGENGER: Boško Prostran & Isidora Ilić Formally intervening with found footage of commercials, this experimental video allows one to rethink image while creating narrative that discovers one of many skillfully covered senses of media images. As the title suggests this video performs Jacque Lacan's opinion that in contemporary capitalism 'surplus value' is no longer capitalized for later libidinal enjoyment - nowadays surplus value is re-invested in production process. Surplus participated at the following festivals: 2011 WEITWINKEL - Kunst.Kultur.Politik, Berlin, Germany, 2011 Ruined images - video art screening platforma, Leipzig, Germany, Donumenta 2011 - SERBIA, Regensburg, Germany, 2010 Skopje Summer, Skoplje, FYR Macedonia, 2010 FESTIVAL IMAGES CONTRE NATURE: international festival of experimental video, Marseille, France, 2009 INTERNATIONAL KANSK VIDEO FESTIVAL, Sibiria, Russia, 2009 Days of Balkan Cinema, Moscow, Russia, VIDEOLOGIA, 5th International festival of audio-visual arts, Volgograd, Russia, 2008 VIDEOMEDEJA - 12th International Video Festival in Novi Sad, Serbia, 2008 ALTERNATIVE FILM-VIDEO FESTIVAL, Belgrade, where it was also awarded.

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.
