La Visite, Pier-Philippe Chevigny, 2014, Québec, 8min46
«The Visit » is an observation documentary focusing on the phenomenon of tourism in World War II prison camp ruins. Although you’d expect those ruins-turned-tomuseums to be peaceful and silent, they happen to be some of most popular tourist attraction in Poland.

White Christmas, Jeremy Drummond, 1998, Canada, 1min32
A music video for Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” featuring mechanical children involved in sexually-induced activities, as found on display in a mall in London, Ontario.

Lucky Girl, Alexandra Grimanis, 2009, Québec, 4min50
Moments in our lives that seem insignificant at the time they occur can stay with us for years, if not forever. We are haunted by what could have been, what small differences may have changed the outcome of these moments and maybe our entire lives. Lucky Girl recalls one such moment – a moment that was simple but could have turned out very differently.

Plastic Sex, Pierre Ayotte, 1990, Québec, 5min40
Big Jim and Marilyn are inflatable dolls. They escape from their sex shop and once in the intimacy of their “Elvis room,” do everything you have ever wanted to know about sex but have never dared view on cassette.
Not to be taken seriously and definitely not for the faint-hearted.

The Creationnists, Pascal Lièvre, 2006, France, 8min10

Recyclage, Laëtitia Bourget, 1999, France, 3 min

A demonstration that involves the recycling of excrement to turn it into decorative objects. An ironic stance concerning the duality of the being which houses both the body and spirit, aligned with the contrast between abject material and art object.
