From the 16th to the 25th of May 2025, the one and only Festival for experimental films and videos - VIDEOEX - is taking place again in Zürich. Get ready to experience the whole range of what experimental film art has to offer, from short to long, funny to sad, beautiful to disturbing, relatable to utterly confusing, it's all there at our festival.

A special programme presenting a selection of Margaret Tait's evocative films, all screened in their original 16mm format.

The collection showcases her distinctive blend of visual poetry and documentary realism, inviting viewers to experience the delicate interplay of light, colour, and rhythm that defines her work.

Introduced by Peter Todd with Luke Fowler, Anthea Kennedy and Ian Wiblin in attendance.

“There is no language. There is no art. There is no knowledge. There is but film as film: the beginning and the eternal moment.” – Gregory J. Markopoulos

“In poetry, something else happens. Hard to say what it is. Presence, let’s say, soul or spirit, an empathy with whatever it is that’s dwelt upon, feeling for it – to the point of identification". – Margaret Tait
