Silent Passengers

2012 • 14 min • Japan

A man catches hermit crabs which live only on a certain island in Japan. The man releases all the hermit crabs in his hotel. Large numbers of hermit crabs are spread in the room. They move freely; on the bed, on the desk, sometimes they fall into the floor, and some of them get into the refrigerator. They seem like nothing was happened, and they don't even care about taking video by the man. It is a silent happening, but also paranormal.

The Quest

2012 • 3 min

„The Quest“ is about longing for a transcendental meaning. It seems trivial for a mouse to be a totem animal. It ought to be at least an eagle or a cheetah, in which spiritual kinship is disclosed. On the one hand animals are perceived as profane and secondary, on the other hand the experience of having observed an animal is often reported. A prophecy is understood as such, but no one can explain it anymore. The doubt whether spiritual kinship could be just a poetical fantasy, undermines the power of faith. Nevertheless, the yearning, even the „need to believe“ still exists. The desecrated everyday, which the Enlightenment has left behind, produces the feeling of being lost, in which the individual and the remains of mythical ideas flit around ambiguously.

A Love Story

2012 • 5 min

A Love Story is a miniature narrative in four acts where time becomes fluid as the image is distilled to its inner self. The film lies at the fringe of the expanding Indian city, a world of continuous migration and therefore of continuous separations. It is in this terrain of separation that A Love Story is located. This film can also be seen as an offering to mainstream cinema, a space where we often lose ourselves in the repetitive spectacle of grand love stories.

Coldplay: Time's Arrow

2012 • 52 min

Coldplay's career trajectory to date could barely have been more perfect. And while, for a manufactured act or the latest pop idol, such a feat may be the result of a marketing mastermind who will move onto the next pretty young thing once the initial hoo-ha of his current project has subsided, Coldplay's success has been built on a wholly different kind of genius - one otherwise known as pure, unadulterated talent. This DVD celebrates this extraordinary group's first decade in the music business, a period after which they remain right at the top of their game and with a future looking as bright as the sun and as assured as death and taxes for all.
