These ten stunning experimental films explore cinema's ability to transform and reimagine the world. They bring to light hidden realities and unspoken emotions. The descriptions are by the filmmakers themselves. Concerning Flight: Five Illuminations in Miniature (Charlotte Pryce, 2004, 9 mins): Interpretations of a Mythological and Fantastical Nature, Illuminated in Motion and Time. The Waves (Kent Long, 2003, 8 mins): The water gave these eternal patterns of light and sound; I applied an interpretation. I Began to Wish... (Julie Murray, 2003, 6 mins): The story of a greenhouse, a father and his son. Plants accelerate their tremble and wobble and glass unbreaks all around them. Strawberries blanch and tomatoes grow pale. What Goes Up (Robert Breer, 2003, 5 mins): The first part of the well-known saying; this animated film is illustrated with airplanes, autumn leaves, and penises. Metaphysical Education (Thad Povey, 2002, 4 mins): This film was edited by turning the splicer sideways to reveal the sprockets and the soundtrack. As the filmstrip slides by, gravity and the desire to fly battle for a boy's soul. Loretta (Jeanne Liotta, 2003, 4 mins): A photogram opera of laborious incarnations and corporeal dissolutions, this abstract film is a series of a million flash-lit moments in the storm of being. Observations at Gettysburg, 6 July 2002 (Brian L. Frye, 2003, 11 mins): The annual Civil War reenactment at Gettysburg is a passion play, a dramatic evocation of the cataclysm in which a young nation expiated its sins in blood, and was reborn. Passage (Ernie Gehr, 2003, 15 mins): Nothing extraordinary. Just a ride on the S-Bahn through a small section of what used to be East Berlin. An anxious journey fraught with projections. Glow in the Dark (January–June) (Rebecca Meyers, 2002, 6 mins): Looking out and up when the sun is down; home science experiments and other attempts to see with the camera in the dark. Light Is Calling (Bill Morrison, 2003, 8 mins): The random and fleeting nature of life and love, as seen through the roiling emulsion of an ancient film, James Young's The Bells (1926).
