Twist of Fate directed by Karen Aqua (USA, 2010, 9 min, Animation) This 35mm experimental animated film explores the transformative experience of being diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. This expressionistic piece captures impressions of such an experience: upheaval, uncertainty, a sense of physical intrusion, and loss of control. Exploring this emotional landscape, the film visualizes an internal world inside the body, imagined on a cellular level.
Barko directed by Allison Craig (USA, 2010, 8 min, Animation) The story of a sad and timid circus dog who finds that happiness does not just exist inside of the big top.

Hansel and Gretel directed by Hee Sun Kim (USA, 2010, 3 min, Animation) Hansel and Gretel is a re-interpretation of the original fairy tale story by the Grimm brothers. The film keeps the childlike quality of the original with touch of darkness.

Drawing its title from the first board game released in the United States in 1894, The Mansions of Happiness explores the philosophical boundaries between myth & memory & between our inner & outer worlds. Comprised from original photo-rams, & hundreds of nineteenth century collage elements, the film takes us through a landscape of miniatures, dolls, toys, magic acts,& mysterious maternal passageways from Edward Hirsch's description of Ekiss' book.
