Watching the mesmerizing, stunning, disturbing and touching punk poem A LOST AND FOUND BOX OF HUMAN SENSATION at our GOETHE FILMS series opening last night --and it worked so well before CRAZY--, I realized I was short-changing (pun intended) our two shorts in this 3-night program on the young, the old and intergenerational relations:
A LOST AND FOUND BOX OF HUMAN SENSATION (<a href="http://vimeo.com/14059948" title="lost">trailer) was the perfect opener, animating a poem by Martin Wallner about a boy mourning his father’s death and trying to move on.
How did two German design students get Joseph Fiennes & Ian McKellen to voice their film? Have to ask them. Thanks to Martin Wallner and Stefan Leuchtenberg for letting me show their award-winning film.
YOU AND ME is the beautiful closing short to our series, Karsten Kraus’ Oberhausen Festival winner:
A woman is walking towards her husband's camera for four decades. A love story on small gauge film set to e. e. cummings’ famous love poem. What better film to watch on Mother's Day this Sunday...
