In the film "Composition" the plot is not classically constructed but from a subjective emotional state of the filmmaker himself, a condition that includes memories and scenes of our everyday life that follow us in the form of a mix between poetry, humor and nostalgia. The Balkan atmosphere dominates but it all turns into a universal message of love where the man and everything dear around him merge into one.

August 1992. I was working for a whole week in total darkness, in the image-by-image mode of my Super 8 camera. As I perceived an image on the screen, I started imagining what it would be if those images could show their own metamorphosis… But within a single frame, I had the sharp impression of a real contact behind the image itself. As if I could reach the formal and mathematical language of models… The images seemed to be whispering. More movement… more space…I keep developing this laboratory of shapes known as the Dervishes.

A correspondence course from expatriot Australian de Bryun. Can we ever truly understand science?

A series of murders targeting children occur in a suburban residential area. A young boy, Mamoru, realizes that all the murders have something in common and confides in his friend Takeshi. A tooth was always pulled out of the corpse. A new victim had also had his teeth pulled. Then they see a man who looks like the sheriff at the scene. Takeshi says that all the adults in the town are the enemy, and scares Mamoru by telling him that when it really hurts, he can't even speak. Takeshi grabs a slingshot and tries to attack the sheriff, looking as if he is possessed by something. Eventually, Mamoru discovers something unexpected in Takeshi's house...
