In the sixties, the founders of the magazine De Nieuwe Stijl were radiant stars in the Dutch literary heavens: Cornelis Bastiaan Vaandrager, Armando, Hans Sleutelaar and Hans Verhagen. Throughout his life, Vaandrager remained true to his ideals: you have to try everything. He became a poet, actor, father, writer, vagabond and junky, eventually ending up literally in the gutter.

Longplay comedy with the subtitle "The Work of Jára Cimrman in the Hands of a Clever Trinity - A Film Made About You and For You". The four-hour film was made improvised by the method of "dried humor", i.e. an attempt to destroy each newly emerging gag by diluting it, explaining it or just making it wrong. 1995: The young amateur theater director Petr Hobby (P. Marek) places an advertisement for the founding of the Cimrman theater ensemble. The two young men who join him - Jiří Nezájem (J. Nebeský) and Jiří Zájem (J. Nezhyba) - will then experience with him during the effort to start rehearsing the performance of an incredible blow of fate, culminating in a shift in time by thirty years. The dilemma is: to return or stay in 2023?

The second Super J-Cup was hosted by Wrestle Association R taking place on December 13, 1995, at Sumo Hall in Tokyo, Japan.

"Guitar Grind" opens abruptly with an overhead shot of Parrino, clad in sunglasses and a T-shirt, as he begins sliding his bass guitar—positioned facedown like a violin bow—against a guitar resting atop its case, causing a somewhat unholy racket. Occasionally reaching up to tweak the amplifier or manipulate the guitar pedal to produce screeching and howling feedback, Parrino uses the instruments unconventionally so that together they project a discordant noise. The artist masterfully draws the listener in to hear repetitions, subtle variations, and musical gestures in the unusual sonic palette. Shot by a lone cameraperson, the visuals of Parrino's performance become increasingly abstract as the music develops into a more familiar and alluring language.

With the act of capturing the strange worlds on film, one's own presence is unveiled as exotic.

"A world of pain and sorrow even while the cherry trees are in bloom." Haïku d'Issa (18th century).

Playful course on a goose-body game.

A compelling portrait of parents coming to terms with their children’s sexual orientation. The parents and children director Vickie Seitchik interviews each come from different social and ethnic backgrounds. Some accepted their children’s orientation easily; others had grief to compound their ordeal from the start. Seitchik skillfully interweaves different interviews to bring out particular personalities while highlighting common traits they all share: the shame, anger, hurt and sense of loss, but also and especially the relief, joy and energy coming out can bring.

When Paula discovers that her neighbor/love interest has a boyfriend she plots her revenge.

A documentary directed by Ateyyat Al Abnoudy

"undertow" is an experimental short film which explores how the loss of family and culture can affect one's body consciousness and sexuality. It juxtaposes one adopted woman's reconstructed search for her birth mother (through a bleak urban landscape towards a phone booth) with the attempt to connect mind and body. Through multi-layered incorporation of text, dramatic and documentary footage, voice-over body movement, the internal challenges of crawling back into a murky past are revealed. "undertow" represents the pain and struggle of fighting against the forces--or currents (the undertow)--which seek to trap us and prevent us from knowing ourselves.
