French with English subtitles
“The idea,” in Godard’s own words, “is simple. A married woman and a single man meet. They love, they argue, fists fly. A dog strays between town and country. The seasons pass. A second film begins”. But the result, in the cinema master’s radical, joyously lo-def 3D tale, is something else entirely—a glorious, dizzying meditation on love and history, nature and meaning, as fresh and innovative as anything the 83-year-old legend has ever made. Goodbye to Language won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.

Dead Ringer 3D / Directed by Mike Maryniuk, 2009, Canada, 2:25 min / A tsunami of magnetic rays disrupts the primitive cell-phone broadcast of a Horseshoe Match. The Moral: Never mount a satellite dish on your microwave! Dead Ringer was shot using a homemade dual camera stereoscopic device. The film and the process of creating it are at once a celebration and damnation of technology.
