Hipno-epileptičen animirani ritual. Les Religions Sauvages posili gledalca z grozljivo dieto greha po receptu, muči ga z vizualnim pobožnjaštvom, sprevrženim črno črnim humorjem in perverzijo celo za vajene oči. Predstavljamo animirani segment Mattija Hagelberga in Katje Tukiainen iz omnibusa tridesetih kamikaze bojevnikov undergrounda.
A Hypno-Epileptic Animated Ritual. Les Religions Sauvages tube-feeds its audience a horrific diet of sin prescription, visual saintlieness torture, twisted pitch black humor, and perversion for initiated eyes.

Mitični Ulanec na svoji odpravi po Kirgiziji sreča lepo mlado dekle. Gospodarja in služabnico spremljamo na prelepem popotovanju, dokler se na pragu finske državljanske vojne njuni poti ne ločita. Dramatični trikotnik, v katerem ni nihče zmagovalec.
On his expedition in Kirghizia, a mythical Uhlan meets a beautiful young man. The master and servant make a lovely journey together until their ways part at the bonfires of the Finnish civil war. A drama triangle in which no one seems to come out a winner.

Italija, Francija/Italy, France, 2009, 35mm, 8'
Opazujem roke svojega očeta, oblake svoje matere; vidim čas, ki mineva in nas obarva z rumeno barvo cvetov. Čudovito animirana grenko-sladka meditacija o mladeniču, njegovem psu in naši nezmožnosti ali nepripravljenosti, da bi uživali v drobnih, a dragocenih življenjskih radostih.
I watch the hands of my father, the clouds of my mother; I see the passing of Time that colours us with the yellow of flowers. A beautifully animated bitter-sweet meditation about a young man, his dog and our inability, or unwillingness, to take the time to enjoy life's small and precious pleasures.

Človek prispe na križišče in se ne more odločiti, v katero smer naj krene. Ljudje, ki jih sprašuje za smer, pa ga še bolj zmedejo.
A person comes to a crossroads and cannot decide which way to take. People he asks confuse him more than they help.
