The XIV edition of Archivio Aperto with be held live and online, free and worldwide, on MyMovies platform. Archivio Aperto is the festival dedicated to the rediscovery of the experimental and amateur film heritage, run by Home Movies - Archivio Nazionale del Film di Famiglia of Bologna (Italy).

Cinema Parenthèse and iMAL are very pleased to invite the german filmmaker Helga Fanderl to present a personally selected super 8 film program. As a student of both Peter Kubelka and Robert Breer, Fanderl has created her own specific working methods, attitudes, and cinematic expressions. For instance, it is crucial for her to confront and work in the present, to process the various pro-cinematic impressions directly in the camera (as a kind of live filming) without any form of post-production.

The 2021 edition of Courtisane Festival (October 20-24 Ghent. Belgium) will feature as its artists in focus Sandra Lahire, a central member of the feminist and experimental filmmaking community in London in the 1980s and 1990s; and Swedish documentarians C.W. Winter & Anders Edström.

On Friday 8 and Saturday 9 October, Cavia will be all about the work of award-winning artist, experimental filmmaker, animator and holographer Eric Leiser. There will be two different screenings with lots of short films and a feature film on Saturday. He will also be present for a Q&A afterwards. In our foyer you'll be able to admire RELICS: an exhibition of analog reflection hologram sculptures, dioramas with projection, drawings and woodblock prints by Eric Leiser.
