GROWING WINGS

12 ', 2017 (Co-production)

 

A short experimental film lingers on a thin border between the real and the imaginary. Through the observation of the inner monologue, it explores the sense of loneliness and reflects the symptoms of social anxiety. The film methodically interferes with the means of psycho-drama, which helps it to discover paradoxical acts that shake everyday life and manifest as surreal poetic dreams.

 

Authors: Toni Poljanec, Maja Nemec
Production: Cultural Art Society Confinity Theater

BITTER SMILE

34'10 '', 2010

'The reality is a creation of your mind’. '

The bitter smile is a result of a film workshop that took place in the main Slovenian prison Dob. Thirteen prisoners contemplate on the concepts of time, freedom, crime, punishment and reintegration. Together with participants the author recreated their confessions into a parodic docudrama, that drifts from the bright fantasy, to the unpleasant reality.

THIS IS CULTUROLOGY?

53 ', 2009

'After I graduate I want to do something culturological’. '

From the point of view of hard core natural scientist culturology is simply meaningless. For utilitarians, it is a pile of mumbo jumbo. Even for mainstream social scientists it is neither promising nor fashionable. Students of culturology are wandering how to benefit from their graduate degrees. Well, some of them don’t even wander, they just find themselves waiting in the unemployment office. The documentary film explores the fuzzy identity of culturology, its place in science and employment market and ​captures the zeitgeist of a certain era of the Faculty of Social Science in Ljubljana.
