Outside the narrative world, cinema becomes art, experimental, part of the avant-garde and an exploration of what the senses can not perceive in reality. Figurative or abstract, it offers a virtually infinite field of visual and sound possibilities: multiple superimpositions, amazing framing, rapid editing, surprising experiments on the very surface of the film, optical effects ...

Looking primarily at touching the eye and the senses, experimental cinema works more on the visual image than on the narration.

These films help one to discover the invisible, visit parallel universes and they surprise, invent, deconstruct and propose new logic. Between classical cinema and cinema of our everyday world, there is an exciting third path, sometimes difficult to approach, but always promising.

In this panorama of experimental short films from around the world and from the origins of cinema to the present day, are included films from Orson Welles, Ralph Steiner, Fernand Léger, Dziga Vertov, Maya Deren and Stan Brackhage.  Prepare to be be astonished, reassembled, scandalized ...
