AND ON THE SEVENTH DAY

Dir: Michael Raphan
Spain – 2014

INTERESTING BALL

Dir: DANIELS (Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert)
USA – 2014

A red ball bounces past a café and a couple of folks’ houses and then goes to the beach.

Daniel Scheinert: [T]his film grew out of a desire to celebrate our most embarrassing brain farts.

Daniel Kwan: …and hopefully figure out what it means. You know…life and whatever.

Daniel Scheinert: Who are we? Why are we Daniels?

Daniel Kwan: Why is someone giving us money to make things like this?

Daniel Scheinert: That’s why we made this movie. To explore the existential question of “Why did someone give us money?”

Still from Captain Coulier (Space Explorer)

CAPTAIN COULIER (SPACE EXPLORER)

Dir: Lyndon Casey
Canada – 2009

Sick of the pressure from his parents to become successful on Planet Earth, Anthony Coulier impulsively became a space explorer. Although lured to space by the promise of action, adventure, and glory, he now battles space travel’s greatest obstacle, boredom. Now in between planets, and with mission operations under control, he becomes restless and argumentative with a focused crew that keeps to themselves. Loneliness sinks in. Maybe intergalactic space travel isn’t his schtick.
