Lars von Trier considère THE PERFECT HUMAN (1967) comme l'un de ses films cultes. Il défie son réalisateur, Jørgen Leth, de tourner cinq remakes de ce court-métrage. Pour chaque projet, il va lui imposer de nouvelles " obstructions " le forçant à repenser l'histoire et les personnages de son film original. Leth devra gérer restrictions, ordres et autres interdictions. FIVE OBSTRUCTIONS est un jeu plein de pièges et de coups vicieux. Un film fascinant et totalement inédit autour d'un cinéaste qui accepte de recréer totalement une de ses premières oeuvres. Un voyage initiatique au coeur du processus de la création cinématographique.

In Grasshopper, park-bench philosopher AJ Vadehra expounds on astrology and more productive avenues of contemplation. Done all in grey-green, this animated but otherwise unedited interview is a good example of what happens when you approach the right stranger with a camera. Grasshopper premiered at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival and has since played in many other festivals worldwide.

Ryan Power is back and he means business. This second trip to Fiesta Texas is done ride-by-ride “just like last time.” Thrill to the psychedelic sights and sounds of a Texas theme park as you are slowly worn down by the implacable will of this young man. Ryan previously appeared in our short Snack and Drink and the ‘unreleased’ Ryan’s Capitol Tour. He also shows up briefly in Waking Life (as an alien leaving Earth).

This is the first ‘independent’ use made of our “rotoshop” software. It was quite primitive in the beginning. This is a short road-trip documentary consisting of animated interviews with people found along the route from New York to Austin.
