"Carandiru Women's Prison. An opportunity to talk about the freedom, loneliness and hope of women who, although incarcerated, keep their dreams alive." Adopting the semi-open prison regime, a penitentiary in São Paulo allows inmates to work outside. According to the psychologists of the establishment - who during the film talk about the scientific level and the practical results of their work - this system is seen and developed as a fair achievement of the inmates and not as a privilege, gradually ensuring their social reintegration. In their testimonies, the inmates expose the problems they face on the outside in the face of a society that marginalizes them, even after they have served their full sentence. Stimulus Award from the São Paulo State Culture Secretariat, 1982.

Focuses on the visual arts programs of the New Deal, highlighting the impact on the lives and work of American artists. When President Franklin D. Roosevelt took office in 1933 during the Great Depression, nearly 10,000 artists were out of work. Over the next decade, a series of programs known as the New Deal Art Projects was developed. Under the WPA and other programs, thousands of artists were able to earn a living while devoting themselves full-time to their art.

The films of Thomas Feldman are represented neither by the imagination nor (less) by the course of events. Until the end of the films, their true nature is the drama that finds a place at the borders and edges of existence, in which it will focus and intensify and that is why it is an image. . The action takes place less in the images than between the images, in the narrow sphere of darkness, which joins the image with the image and from which they draw their mystery… Movements, rhythms, cuts: these elements give Feldman's films their body language, the invocation of their materiality, their eroticism. All the films are marked by the unforeseen: like sudden pain, like blossoming happiness, like the transgression of limits or barriers, like the explosion of colors.

Strong condensed mounted images, cooked (Cutted) down to become a bright essence, carried away by strong framework.

Foire du trône was made in a big annual Paris fair, like Coney Island. I filmed the people and the games, and that forms the first part of the film. The second part is an elaborate working of the coloured lights. (T.H.)

Mohan, a singer is framed for a murder and his father, who is an honest cop, is also framed for a series of diamond heists. Will they be able to prove their innocence before it's too late?

An impressionistic piece of work, composed out of several movement experiences. A landscape glides by behind a rainscattered train compartment window. In fact the journey goes nowhere, although a map suggests the contrary. As useless as the automatic panning controls camera in a large clothing store only reflects clothes horses. Also shots from a car on the highway, pictures of combat planes on a military airport or shots in the Amsterdam subway are not focused on telling a specific story. Sometimes they are transformed into abstractions, literally and emotionally. They are daydreams backed up by rhythm and sounds from Heyink’s synthesiser.

Visual memos by Auto Awac, the group name used by Kees de Groot, Frank Morsinkhof, Ron Sluik and Emile Toorop. Small personal events and ordinary technology alternate. Subjects like a digital clock, a laundromat, a recorder and a filmclip promoting an electronics factory are experienced just as subjectively as walking through a cornfield or living in a dormitory. On one page of this visual diary is a musical improvisation - one of the artists plays the trumpet for the first time; on another, pieces of a TV show. This romanticism of the technological society is borne not only by impulsively chosen and reworked pictures, but especially by its own electronic music. The initial title of (a part of) the work has been 'In the Interest of Science and Technology'.

The Costa Rican situation of women incorporated into the production in a double shift, jobs and housework.
