Experimental Films
Experimental films from independent and underground cinema. This collection gathers works that treat cinema as a field of research: avant-garde films that play with image, sound and time, abstract and surreal movies that follow the logic of dreams, and visual essays that mix documentary, poetry and performance. Some are short and intense, some slow and hypnotic, and many ignore the usual rules of narrative to ask what a film can be. They come from artists and filmmakers who work with few resources and complete freedom, and they invite the viewer to look and listen in a different way.
