Experimental Shorts (Documentary)

Viewer Advice: Contains stroboscopic imagery.


Thrilling, formally daring work from cinema’s avant garde.

Esoteric rituals, spectral vistas and absurdist vignettes feature in this collection of boundary-pushing work from around the world, the only program in which you’ll see space from the inside of a tree, cats communing with UFOs, and Wesley Snipes staring down systemic corruption.
