Online Bodies seeks to explore the manifestation of the body in virtual spaces. The film consists of seven short non-causal parts, each showing a different angle on the online body. The film passes along bodies in transition: a deepfaked porn actor, a 3D model that wishes to be reproduced, a group of genetically modified humans that live inside an alien, four friends discussing cyborg modifications, a body that cannot get up an escalator. Collectively, they highlight the space in between the physical and virtual.

In the 21st century, you returned to the archipelagos Saint Louis of Sénégal, and Saint Louis of Paris to unearth vestiges of signares—women once at the centre of Occidental French West African commerce and society. Through the night, through the whispers of your aunts and nieces, through the institutions that house present-day French “patrimoine (cultural heritage),” you fell into a spiral between colonial presents and the past.

Yana Nafysa Dombrowsky-M’Baye is a pluridisciplinary researcher and educator from T?maki Makaurau, Aotearoa. Her matrilineal ancestry traces to Senegal and France, while her patrilineal lineage is of Polish and Czech descent. Through iterative and ritualistic processes, Yana’s practice is a poetic inquiry into the material and immaterial conditions of belonging, approaching artistic practice as archaeological gesture, unearthing the spectral, often erased presence of intercultural identities embedded in sites marked by colonial history and personal heritage.At present, Yana is at the Cité Internationale des Arts Paris, participating as one of ten internationally selected artists in the In Situ program, which will conclude March 2026.

Film is made out of rooms (scenes) and a corridor (timeline). It tells a story about creation of a utopian commune. The fate of which is closely intertwined with the history of the place it occupies, the economy and the director's vision. The typology of the apartment occupied by the protagonists turns out to be more durable than the need to change the function of this place. Architecture, social status and structure of the film become closely intertwined. All camera shots used in the film come from the 1973 movie „Monterey Hotel” by Chantal Akerman.

Cars were invented. Now they exist. We care about them. Therefor they drive. They still exist. I can see them. It’s like a glimpse to the past. Actually they don’t exist any more. This way of transport is still alive only with the help of enormous effort. Soon they won’t be here any more. The sound won’t be here. The smell won’t be here. But so far they are here, like dinosaur. There are different types. During the last century different cars were developed on different continents. Dreams got a shape. Or they are used pragmatical. Are these still the same old story of desires which are driving around then?

Following the trip Pasolini made in 1959 along the entire coast of Italy as a reporter for the magazine Sucesso, were located different places as possible scenarios for his death. Understanding cataloging as a tool that allows us to organize knowledge for recovery, this catalog offers the viewer the possibility of redemption of the rebellious individual or the questioning of our acceptance of the critical difference.

Architecture is a hunt for harmony in the chaos, a way of putting order in the universe through the creation of regular angles. The severity of the forms of a Francoist building ? the Universidad Laboral in Gijón ? is distilled and decomposed into its patterns

?Crossing fields,? emphasizes upon the private use of commercial space and documents reading people in a bookstore. The video was filmed in a bookshop in Beijing, as this phenomenon is broadly common in mayor cities in China. Due to obsolete libraries, bookstores function as an open source of knowledge, which attracts crowds of people to spend their free time in the sometimes gigantic bookstore complexes. But instead of buying the books people spend entire days, sitting and reading thronged together, spread around the store. As the management approves this, the reading people?s private use of space is becoming prevalent to the commercial activity in the store. 

 Johanna Domke is interested in this kind of anarchic use of space and the depiction of stasis evolving within the situation. Winding its way through the statue-like readers the camera captures with close and intimate images the ambiguity of their presence. Being physically present they sojourn at the same time in the fictive sphere of their reading. The immobile appearance of the readers leaves the impression that the camera is moving within a frozen moment of time.

Johanna Domke?s film Cuers is inspired by Franz Kafka?s The Trial and the filmic universe of Orson Welles. The audience is taken on a fleeting and meandering journey through different sites in public space, where people are exposed to long waiting. The individual is presented as a singular being, confronting structures of public space. The particular situations are represented in an inspirational manner shifting in and out of each other. Time and space is dissolved in kaleidoscopic pictures, which emphasizes how we physically as well as mentally have trouble adjusting to our anonymous environment. ? Cuers? seeks to create a mental space through abstraction and subversion of the familiar.

On top of a windy hill, two motionless human figures overlook a valley with a teeming big city. One is standing up, the other sits on the ground, the distance between them too large to evoke a sense of togetherness. The clouds race across the sky, the night falls like a brick and thousands of lights gleam at once in the valley before dawn breaks, the sun flies up and a new day begins. All the while, the two figures remain absolutely still before the unfolding scenery. Only the wind blows in their clothes and their hair.

?Søen i spejlet? is the re-enactment of a former boarding school tradition in Denmark. Once a year the students of Sorø Academy held a ritual out in the woods, burning effigies of their teachers on a bonfire. The narrative of the film evolves around the character of a former student that revisits the place of his school days meeting with a group of young students. What first seems to be the fictionalization of the former student´s memory, becomes more and more the documentation of the staging of the ritual ? the alumni himself being the director. But as soon as the ritual sets off, all turns to a different state of realness, as the anger and emotion of the young students boil up to an uncanny level of authenticity.

Stultifera Garden deals with an overlapping structure of the public and the private. The film is set in a park ? a place were city dwellers recover from busy urban life. At the same time it is a place implementing the ?elsewhere? - an un-ruled territory for individuals who are in conflict with society or the human milieu in which they live. It is also a place for individuals whose behaviour is deviant with the respect to the mean or the required norm. As in earlier works, Domke uses a travelling camera to approach the parks diverse character, emphasizing polarities as observing and being watched, high and low culture, control and non-control. The incessant pan evolves from a classic park scenario towards a dystopic, mazy structure of trails. The camera experiences different milieus of the park not directly examining them but portraying them with an inexplicit openness. She accesses milieus that formed architectonical structures in the shrubs, such as cruising areas and drug trafficking points. She discovers places that became functionalised entities - for teens as a get-away, for elderly as a meeting point - each and everyone with their own character and history. Without stating explicit action or narrative Stultifera Garden is more interested to explain that a park is a place for the other, where all these milieus and facets function along side. Intruding as an omniscient eye, Domke is constructing the real to establish the fictitious.

?Sleepers? takes place at Stansted Airport in London in the very late night and portrays sleeping people with slowly panning camera moves. The slow takes emphasise with the passenger?s tiresome waiting for an early morning flight. Within this physical location Domke grips a real, temporal situation that shows the airport as a form of standstill. The video follows a sequence of sleeping people in a transit situation. But even if they are in transit they undergo a present standstill that deludes oneself into a void, where one is not quite sure how the situation will progress. With the interest of this kind of void Johanna Domke evolves her artistic praxis within the time-based media of film and the photographic still image, which on a conceptual level can be seen as a distortion of time and movement. A hybridisation, that opens up for other relations and references.

HEROES OF CONSCIENCE: THE U.S. ?NON-VIOLENCE? PEACE MOVEMENT (FRENCH, SPANISH & GERMAN PREMIERE PROGRAM) DAVID HARRIS, POLITICAL PRISONER (25 min) (1971; 16mm; b&w; DVD) ?David Harris, Political Prisoner? was made at the height of the anti-Vietnam War Resistance movement in the United States. The film records the logic of Resistance through interviews with U.S. political activist David Harris and through the final speech Harris made before he was sent to federal prison. This film was used as an organizing tool for the Resistance. Harris, who married folk singer Joan Baez before he went to jail, was the leading spokesperson for the Resistance and his words and actions still resonate today in an increasingly violent world. The film aired on KCET TV in Los Angeles and on other PBS stations around the U.S. along with an interview by director Taylor Hackford after Harris was released from U.S. federal prison. Filmmaker Neil Reichline made a number of films on anti-war and non-violent themes. He also has worked extensively as a Director of Photography.

This film is a document of the intellectual and emotional climate of the early nineteen-seventies time period. It is a study of the changes the U.S. anti-war movement goes through in the six-month period Bill Garaway is out on bail waiting the results of his court appeal. This film is the story of an activist?s efforts to remain committed to non-violence amidst increasing violent political action. ?The Resister? documents six months in the life of Bill Garaway as he waits out his appeal on a draft evasion conviction. It is the story not only of Garaway, but an entire generation of young people who began by protesting Vietnam and have ended up creating a counterculture.? (Kevin Thomas, ?Los Angeles Times? review) San Francisco Film Festival, 1971; Broadcast on PBS /KQED-TV, San Francisco. Charles Domokos, Filmmaker ____________________________ TOGETHER AT THE INSTITUTE FOR THE STUDY OF NON-VIOLENCE (35 min) (1970; 16mm; b&w; DVD) This film documents the early days of one of the first American organizations to put Gandhi?s non-violent political ideas into practice in the United States. Singer, Joan Baez, and political activist, Ira Sandperl, organized the ?Institute for the Study of Non-Violence" to channel progressives? frustration into political action. The Institute organized draft resisters against the U. S. armed forces during the Vietnam war era. The film follows several draft resisters as they prepare to go to prison to serve sentences for non-cooperation with the U.S. armed forces. The narration also examines the role American Universities, such as Stanford University, play in co-operating with the military-industrial complex continuing to foster a war-based economy in the U.S. Bob Silverthorne: Filmmaker
