Mozaika světa, pozorovaného v absurdní nadsázce a pospojovaná řetězícím se přeskakováním z jedné vedlejší postavy na druhou, skládá z nesourodých výjevů všeobjímající pocit neporozumění. Logika moderního světa je postavena pod úhlem absurdního žertu na hlavu: fotografie, na něž v pařížském parku lákal neznámý muž dívenky a nad nimiž se později zvědavě rozdychťuje pan Foucauld se svou manželkou, se ukáží být obyčejnými pohlednicemi s památkami. Obráceně se chovají i soudci, kteří odsoudí masového vraha a vzápětí ho propustí na svobodu. Stejně tak úspěšně vyhlašuje policie pátrání po dívence, která nezmizela. Celou mozaiku uzavírá v detailním záběru hlava pštrosa, kolem níž se ozývá nepřetržitá střelba. Předposlední film španělského režiséra a scenáristy Luise Buňuela nazvaný Přelud svobody (1974), tvoří závěrečnou část volného triptychu podobenství s filmy Mléčná dráha (1969) a Nenápadný půvab buržoazie (1972).

Ti hodují, výborně se baví a cynickými dialogy prozrazují svou zvrácenost. Po večeři se nikdo nemá k odchodu -práh místnosti jako by se stal nepřekročitelnou neviditelnou barikádou. Hosté zůstávají v domě. V přepychu trpí nedostatkem základní potřeby - jídla - a krizová situace snímá masky jednotlivců...

American Reflexxx is a short film documenting a social experiment that took place in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Alli Coates filmed performance artist Signe Pierce as she strutted down a busy oceanside street in stripper garb and a reflective mask. The pair agreed not to communicate until the experiment was completed, but never anticipated the horror that would unfold in under an hour. The result is a heart wrenching technicolor spectacle that raises questions about gender stereotypes, mob mentality, and violence in America.

Filmed in one sequence-shot of 1 hour and 25 minutes, Ana Arabia is a moment in the life of a small community of outcasts, Jews and Arabs, who live together in a forgotten enclave at the “border” between Jaffa and Bat Yam, in Israel. One day, Yael, a young journalist, visits them. In these dilapidated shacks, in the orchard filled with lemon trees and surrounded by mass public houses, she discovers a range of characters far removed from the usual clichés offered by the region. Yael has the feeling of having discovered a human goldmine. She no longer thinks of her job.

Their relation to time is different than that of the city around them. In this tinkered and fragile place, there is a possibility of coexistence. A universal metaphor.
