"Legers libertinages sabbatiques" by Alvaro Ardevol

A series of interesting images that sometimes remind us Mondrian, but a
Mondrian organic and animated, other remit us to the mysteries of body's interior, with their cells and liquid in movement. The version is in French, what gives a delicious flavor to the film.

"My Secret Garden" by Michael Szpakowski

This is not one of the last Szpakowski's Films but it is one that I quite appreciate, during the movie we can watch an incredible transformation: clouds >face (Szpakowski's Face?) and face > clouds. Somehow, besides the distance in time, we believe that "My Secret Garden" and "The Red Shoes" (see below) are related. Szpakowski is composer, therefore attention for the sound, which owns a slight eastern flavor.

"The Red Shoes" by Michael Szpakowski

I really like Szpakowski's "The Red shoes" movie. While watching "The Red Shoes", I fell sadness at the beggining and hope at the end. I love to imagine that sorrow and pain can be overcomed through a dancing with red shoes. Also I love the point of view Szpakowski used to film the red shoes.
An interesting and sensitive movie!

"O Sole Mio", a homage to Vittorio De Sica by Regina Celia Pinto.

"O Sole Mio" shows a very small but infinitely beautiful portion of the De Sica's film "Miracle in Milan", it illustrates perfectly the subject "Summer and Winter Festival". "Miracle in Milan" is a tale with great humanism and warmth. It's very sentimental and more like a fairy tale, and should probably be classed as a comedy, although it deals with serious matters.
