This year we selected 26 short films (out of over 400) into animation, narrative fiction, documentary and experimental sections. By experimental section, we summarized video art, a blend of genres or out-of-genre expressions or attempts to find new forms of screen idioms.
We are announcing a gathering on July 26 (7 pm) at Film Club «Delirium» and on July 27 (from 6 pm) at the Garage Contemporary Art Gallery. On the first day we will talk about contemporary short films, get acquainted with the project ‘Vagrant Film Tribe’ and, of course, watch and discuss a few films (Sangam, Off-season, Tipping force, Last bullet, Planets and robots, Pharmakon).While speaking about the short form, we cannot avoid the question of its relation to the so-called ‘big’ or distributive cinema, i.e. cinema that is created and distributed in the film market system. The Vagrant Film Festival will share its experience of interacting with the projection screen, which has gone far beyond not only the cinema, but also the white screen.
On the next day we will make a presentation and test-drive of our amphibious cinemobile, a party and, of course, film screenings.
