La mujer de dos caras

The Tree of Life "The Tree of Life" pictures the enchanting mountains of Talesh. It is a picture of birth, love, and death of the old nations living in the misty forests of this land. In a winter, when men crimson the white snow with the blood of the deer, a child is born. His mother recites him the love story of the spring, of the mystery of the flowers' colors, and of the love toward his father. And the father's restless life, gazing at the far away, finds calmness in death in the cold winter.

Feuerwerk The figures of a big firework display develop behind the column architecture of an aboveground metro bridge and the lamps illuminating it. Trains drawing paths of light traverse the picture of explosions. Through the use of a vigorous rhythm of cuts, the black and white movie condenses the simultaneousness of these luminous patterns of movements and transforms what has been filmed into purely cinematic fireworks.

Alexanderplatz in Berlin Filmed in 1896, this actuality captures everyday life at Alexanderplatz, one of Berlin’s central squares. The camera records crowds of pedestrians crossing the square, streetcars passing through, and horse-drawn vehicles navigating the busy traffic.
