Microcosmos: Le peuple de l’herbe

A documentary of insect life in meadows and ponds, using incredible close-ups, slow motion, and time-lapse photography. It includes bees collecting nectar, ladybugs eating mites, snails mating, spiders wrapping their catch, a scarab beetle relentlessly pushing its ball of dung uphill, endless lines of caterpillars, an underwater spider creating an air bubble to live in, and a mosquito hatching.

by Claude Nuridsany and Marie Pérennou

Portable film festival.

A train ride and a city that stresses, fractures, breaks and builds before your eyes…

“Moving Still” is a short video by artist Santiago Caicedo, in anaglyph 3-D. You’re riding in a train through an urban landscape, looking out the window. You might not notice anything very unusual for the first 30 seconds (things happen, but they are subtle). After awhile, though, you witness dramatic upheavals as the city frantically destroys and rebuilds itself.
