1. A Distant Horizon by Ryan Marino
Remote landscapes contain fragments of strata and sediment suggesting an existence marked by time not man. A vibrant sun illuminates the contours of the land providing a natural show of light and shadow play. “We are lost between the abyss within us and the boundless horizons outside us.” – Robert Smithson

The Voice of God – Bernd Lützeler (2011 India/Germany | 9:35 minutes)
If God would come down to earth and try to earn a living in Bombay, most probably he would very soon become successful as a voice over artiste, lending his voice to thousands of Hindi movies and even more documentaries and public service films in India. A melo-dramatic docu-drama with voice-over in stop-motion and long-time exposure.—B.L.

Winter Movement – Chris H Lynn (2006 | 5:03 minutes)s Filmed in Iceland-A dream-like narrative briefly evokes the terminal sleep.
