Lights, speeds, forms, colors, energies, atoms… Hypnotic is a graphic trip into party and created like a psychic dance.

Directed by Johanna Vaude.

This film has been shot one image after another, based on already existing images, paintings, photos : Vésale’s “the écorchés”, drawings by Agipa de Nettesheim and Leonardo da Vinci, photos by Muybridge, Marey, Londe, architectural plans… These still images are knocked together to give the movement, rhythm and echo necessary to refer to these times where Man has tried to find through research, science, philosophy and art the concept and sentiment of Totality. The editing image by image allows us to explain the connections that link each image, their contents and their symbols. Like a synthesis, through the prism of Totality, the film shows all these questions and researches about Man and his world.

Night wandering in a labyrinthine city. Layout of roads, avenues, deserted streets, hostile architectures where the homeless, shadows of flesh and blood, lost in the power of the city, silently die. The film carries us away in the madness race of the city, at night, submerged by the insomniac, alienating waves of the media, through which the human voice tries, like a distant echo, an obstinate wake up call.

An aesthetic journey based on portraits of personalities filmed by the french film-maker Gérard Courant. The resulting film investigates the subject of the portrait under various aspects : universes of forms, colours, rhythms and identities…

Directed by Johanna Vaude.

A system is running at top speed when an intrusion jeopardizes its foundations and its dogmas, provoking a chain reaction… The machine is out of control and liberates many aspirations totally unknown and incompatible with its initial program…

Like a nightmare, Anticipation is a film about alienation, paranoia and mental confusion where human being tries to find the strength to resist to an inhuman scenario’s society (genetic manipulation, repressif society).

Directed by Johanna Vaude.

Aesthetic attempt in which intertwining forms, colours and dimensions are moving in such a rhythm that all landmarks are lost : are we in the world or is the world inside us? This film is a fleeting self-portrait, a projection of identity, of the human being and of his body in unexplored worlds such as space or the seabed.
