- DirectorJoão PombeiroStarsCary GrantIn Schizo, Pombeiro reflects upon the importance of the mechanisms of memory in the construction of collective identity. This takes place through the re-viewing of a famous sequence from Hitchcock's film "North by Northwest", which consists of the elimination of the plane that chases the main character and of the introduction of a new soundtrack, thus provoking a feeling of strangeness in the viewer.
- DirectorCollectif ChainsawGaëtan ChataignerMarilyn LerayUnity of time, unity of place and unity of means: in this short film, "Collectif Chainsaw!" experiments a so-called "Vidéo de Chambre" formula, establishing basic rules for filming in confined spaces like hotel rooms. Second part of the project "Sally Monade", and based on the works from German philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, WGPTB is also the first foray of "Collectif Chainsaw!" into separate contributions from its members, and is composed of five segments linked together by a corridor of quivering connections: "Waterproof Hotel" (dir: Marc Tsypkine de Kerblay and Marilyn Leray), "Psychiatric Hotel" (dir: Gaétan Chataignier), "Kama Sutra Hotel" (dir: Federico Pellegrini), "Dos Passos Hotel" (dir: Pierre Vaché), and "All Stars Hotel" (dir: Laurent Mareschal). These films were made for the inauguration of the Hôtel Pommeraye in Nantes. Private film commissioners are rare enough to be mentioned.
- DirectorCollectif ChainsawRevisiting "The Funeral Song" (M. Banzizi), the artists, athletes, intellectuals and directors' collective "Chainsaw!" explores and deconstructs the codes of narration, and in the process of editing / de-editing / re-editing the original filming material, makes the fiction brutally burst into more fiction.

- DirectorAlexandre LabbéThis compilation short-film program offers fresh and comparative perspectives on the practice of experimental cinema in both China and Taiwan, two societies which have reached different stages of social development, while using the same language and rooting in the same culture. The viewer can compare the formal and structural issues at stake here and find similar concerns in both countries' experimental films: memory, remembrance, representations of History and how sharing personal stories in a changing society can modify an individual's point of view.

- DirectorChris MarkerMario RuspoliStarsCasamayorValérie MayouxLalanTHREE CHEERS FOR THE WHALE chronicles the history of mankind's relationship with the largest and most majestic of marine mammals, and graphically exposes their slaughter by the fishing industry. Chris Marker's co-director, Mario Ruspoli, descendant of an aristocratic Italian family, had been a journalist, painter and ethnologist before discovering his vocation as a documentary filmmaker. In the Sixties he became one of the founders -along with Jean Rouch, Edgar Morin and Chris Marker- of the "direct cinema" movement, pioneering in the use of new lightweight cameras and synchronous sound recording equipment.
- DirectorJoris IvensStarsRoger PigautA travelogue of Valparaiso, Chile, a city built on steep hills. Life is a constant struggle against geography. Neighbourhoods are reached by series of ramps, staircases, and funicular railway elevators. The poorest residents on the hilltops have trouble obtaining water for drinking and washing. There are community dances, a travelling circus, a race course. Boys feed the harbour sealions; a fashionable woman walks her penguin. The ever-present onshore breeze provides fresh air and an ideal environment for kite-flying. The film's second half is in colour, making the switch with the tale of the city's bloody pirate past.
