“Rollingwood Drive - Nematode” by Dan Silver
A young girl discovers life in a field, while an elderly woman prepares for death.
“Ghostgun | Venom” by Alfredo Vidal
A young hacker, stuck in an endless cycle of dirty business takes her life into her own hands.
“Foxwedding - Here, At the End of All Things” by Jonatan Egholm Keis
In this magical, melancholic and ode-to-life-like music video about love and death, a widow decides to dig up her deceased husband and make him ‘come alive’ as the two share one final day together doing all the (little) things they used to do when they were both alive and well.
“Malossi - Kje Med Are” by Anika Salvesen
Child's play turns into a bizarre challenge. "Kje Med Are" is a narrative music video made for Malossi - a Norwegian stoner rock band singing in a distinctive dialect. The project is a surreal interpretation of the song lyrics: the first childhood experiences of betrayal from your friends.
