My Childhood
1972
0h 47m
The first part of Bill Douglas' influential trilogy harks back to his impoverished upbringing in early-'40s Scotland. Cinema was his only escape - he paid for it with the money he made from returning empty jam jars - and this escape is reflected most closely at this time of his life as an eight-year-old living on the breadline with his half-brother and sick grandmother in a poor mining village.

Wunsch Zwei (2)
Wunsch zwei(2) is not about nightmares or fear, it’s about love. It’s is a tool to materialize oneself into the physical world. It’s wunschmaschinen. This short film was shot in a video-diary style between summer 2022 - fall 2024, being revamped with every other screening, exploring themes of identity, faith and mass alienation. It’s about diaspora, trans-girlhood and longing. It's about faith. It’s sort of an artistic take on what is more commonly known as “shitposting”. It’s about trivial posting of affirmations, conspiracies and jargon to conjure something into the screen and through it into reality, aiming to reproduce the shitpost phenomena in video form.
