The artist, emphasizing the objective dimension of the film camera, draws attention to the opposition between the space of the frame (what is presented) and the space outside the frame (what is excluded from the frame, i.e. the continuum of reality). According to Katherine Russel, such a strategy “emphasizes the subordination of reality to form. The picture frame, which has its own autonomy, limits the "view" to a simple economy: inside / outside. The nature of the "interior" is determined by the composition and detail, "outside" there is an unknown space that is never fully described. The fixed frame represents the intentionality of phenomenological consciousness, but at the same time it defines the limits of what is visible and knowable. The static frame indicates the subject of perception. The four sides of the frame also direct our attention to what is beyond it, that is: a continuum of reality defined by a kind of anti-continuum of the frame ”.

In this seminal feminist video, ten women address the camera and seemingly each other in a wide-ranging exploration of such previously taboo subjects as women’s sexuality, power, and fears about intimacy.

Strange assembly of stark and nearly surreal images tell the tale of life and death as seen through the eyes of an observer and eventually the subject himself – a blind man in a wheelchair. The film relies on a number of cinematic devices to bring into focus the trials and tribulations of being out on the streets, alone and handicapped. The result is a striking visual narrative of how people view those among us who are “different.” We believe we can see them but they can’t see us. Or can they?

Following the operation against the Israeli sports delegation participating in the Munich Olympics in Germany in 1972, the Zionist entity launched retaliatory raids against the Palestinian refugee camps in Syria and Lebanon (specifically the village of Da'al in Syria and the Nabatieh camp in Lebanon) on September 8th, 1972. In reflecting the sheer barbarism of the Zionist aggression, legendary Palestinian filmmaker Mustafa Abu Ali is compelled to reach for new filmic grammar to reflect on the brutality. This is a film haunted and haunting, with unfiltered images of death. Lifeless babies, features bloated. Children in hospital beds, limbs twisted, faces bruised. Agony. Skulls shattered. Hands crushed. Occasionally, lifeless eyes blink, a twitch of the hand brings something akin to hope – that life persists, life could persist.

Founded in 1968 by Ray Sawyer and Dennis Locorriere, Dr Hook and the Medicine Show quickly gained a reputation as one of the craziest bands in the world on the back of their cheerfully drunken performances in the trucker bars of the Southern States. The band bridged the gap from country music to rock and pop, and although their live shows had their share of comedy and the band were renowned for their raunchy sense of humour, they were also noted for their first class musicianship and vocals. This film features a live performance at the Musikladen Studios in Germany.
