Return to Providence
Return to providence


Pierre Desprats, Bejamin Hameury, Maxime Martinot

France
2016 / 0:22:00

Howard Phillips Lovecraft sometimes wrote his tales in a state of trance, or unconsciousness. Based on mysterious audio tapes found in his belongings, Return to Providence brings in broad daylight the duplicity of this man from another time. We find him lost in the midst of his dreams, between the fear of ancient gods lost at the borders of the sea and the peace of his childhood home in Providence, place of wisdom and golden dreams.

The Diary of Theodore Kracklite
Le Journal de Théodore Kracklit / El Viaje de Kracklitel
The Diary of Theodore Kracklite


Jacques Lœuille

France
2016 / 0:15:00

It's about an archaeological expedition from the twenties, on the tracks of Elephas Falconeri, a dwarf elephant, a real creature which existed and which borders on the edge of the legendary Cyclops, and, of which Theodore Kracklite found fossilised skulls in undersea caverns in Sicily. The Diary of Theodore Kracklite, revisiting a well-known myth from the Iliad, is a metaphor of the present-day ecological crisis (the rise in water levels from which the creature benefitted) and a reminder of the massive extinction of species.

Under the lake, the earth draws the ways you can take. In the depth of the sleeping waters, a roar sounds, probably a comming revolt.

Mademoiselle L.

France
2014 / 0:09:30

Ill will make her speak and think out loud to us. This is a wander of a lonely wondering woman. Candice's eyes and the surrounded landscapes make one mind. A wonan nearby the black sand beach and a black little basalt stone is her compagnon. The undolations of time within straight black and grey lines as clockwise of her existence.
