lucid cinema

A series of films dedicated to the spectacle and cinema of the indescribable. The dream logic of narrative. Controversial ideas and their bearers. Fearless creative visions and inevitable collisions with contemporary conventions. The initiating moments of film fandom, the births and downfalls of popular culture and commercialised and underground cult.

Was Georges Méliès an escamouleur or a film director? And is it necessary for the audience and the authors themselves to choose between these two poles? Perhaps if we leave out the punctuation between magician and director, between magic trick and film, we arrive at the very essence of cinema. A programme in collaboration with the music magazine Fullmoon.
