KINOSKOP 2019
1st International Festival of analog experimental cinema and audio-visual performance
What is analog cinema today? Who is still shooting on celluloid? Audio-visual initiative and film lab Kino pleme wants to provide some answers, and is proud to announce the birth of a new niche festival dedicated to the spirit of preserving the exploratory tendencies and experimental ways of working with celluloid in a digital era. Analog experimental film festival “Kinoskop”, the first of its kind in the region, is, in its first year, taking place in Belgrade, Serbia, for a two-day run (30th November and 1th December) of screenings, expanded film performances, live soundtracks and gallery exhibitions in Belgrade's hot spot for alternative, independent and underground culture, Kvaka 22.
Kinoskop will encompass a wide spectrum of alternative, underground and experimental cinema shot on super 8, 16mm, 35mm, and found footage, by showing shorts and medium-lenghts which are reveling in stories and motives which cover a lot of historical association with pioneers of avant-garde and independent cinema, but also impregnating them with a lot of vibrant energy and new ideas. In seven selections, there are forty films, curated by veteran experimental film aficionados Nikola Gocić (film writer and critic and visual artist) and Marko Milićević (film author and founder of the audiovisual initiative Kino Pleme) that will enchant and mystify you, speak directly to your subconscious, subvert your genre (and many other!) expectations, and take you to the world(s) where myths and realities collide, blur the lines which separate them, and then coalesce into a dense medley of aural and visual stimuli.
There will be shades of mysticism and psychodrama of Maya Deren, dealing with esoteric "thingamijigs" and alchemy of Kenneth Anger, magically mundane secret diaries of Jonas Mekas, but rest assured this will be no sheer nostalgia trip... Selection will show documentaries on subjects which haven't been touched upon in the history of cinema and witness peculiar deconstructions of sci-fi and horror genre through the creative lens and poetics of experimental film, take a trip inside nocturnal visions of the non-human world, oneirically sabotage H/B/ollywood on our found footage safari and take on you on a rollercoaster ride in the realms of non-commercial, non-compromising, personal cinema.
