In the context of the festival Pour Les Oiseaux

These microfilms have nothing to do with the size of the images, but with the recurring "character" of this series: the microphone. An essential instrument for capturing sound, we never see it (unless we're mistaken): it's outside the image, confined to the off-screen.

The second program of Refle-x-périmental is dedicated to cine-portraits. It proposes an exploration of gestures of cinematographic (self)representation based on multiple intersections of the gaze.

From self-portraits (Snow, Unglee) to family (Schefer, Satake), familiar (Mekas, Baillie), or even domestic (Rey) portraits, along with political portraits (Glowczewska, Schefer), these films question the relationship between the filmmakers and their subjects.
