Mossgrove / Bed of Moss
Last month I posted Kurtis Hough’s piece Bed of Moss, a contemplative film shot amidst the rich mossy nature of Oregon.

Petites Planètes
Is it possible that there are other filmmakers working as hard as Vincent Moon? If he’s not documenting Efterklang’s return to the island of Als, he’s trekking through Columbia with Lulacruza exploring the country’s musical diversity.

Ronen’s Adventure in an iPhone
We’ve all seen films that incorporate synced iphone videos in their structure, but I’d argue that few have approached it with the same level of playfulness as Ronen V’s Ronen’s Adventure in an iPhone. As Ronen V mentions in the credits; “I’m going to make an awesome video every week until I die trying” – [...]
Hobo with a Shotgun
A train pulls into the station – it’s the end of the line. A Hobo jumps from a freight car, hoping for a fresh start in a new city. Instead, he finds himself trapped in an urban hell. This is a world where criminals rule the streets and Drake, the city’s crime boss, reigns supreme [...]
