Laitue
Director: Nicholas Brooks
Year: 2010
Laitue is a hand drawn film, tracing a brief journey from loss to a reunion of an unexpected kind. Two people are separated by time and space but nevertheless coincide in a series of movements which form a choreography of anticipation and unrest.
Transit of the Megaliths
Director: Nicholas Brooks
Year: 2013
In 1934 while on a road trip, British painter Paul Nash placed several small geometric objects onto a car roof to photograph them. Invoking the nomadic inclination of idealised form, Transit of the Megaliths provides a road trip for a set of fragments derived from paintings of the 1920s-40s.
Elegy for the Lost
Director: William Hong-xiao Wei
Year: 2025
Through the psychoanalytic and introspective voiceover of a young post-pandemic Chinese migrant in Europe, the film interweaves her private memories of intimacy with public narratives of resistance. As her reflections unfold, she and her community navigate secrecy, repression, survival, looming precarity, and displacement, all while confronting the personal cost of existing in a world that demands their silence.
