INTERFILM 40: Event 02: Animation Rendezvous – A Fulldome Exploration of Sound & Animation

Fulldome #8! We initiated  »Virtual Reality meets Fulldome« in 2016 – ever year since we've been obliterating the boundaries between the digital and the real, between virtual worlds and the vaulted expanse of Zeiss Planetarium. This year is all about the sonics, as it's sound that can truly unlock a film's full potential. The evening opens with an animation program, four fulldome films with a special approach to sound, curated and moderated by François Serre, director of Courant 3D Festival in Angoulême (France). Following the screening, sound designer and musician Michał Krajczok and digital artist Lucas Gutierrez will team up for a live performance demonstrating the powerful possibilities for interaction between sound and image. Realised in co-operation with Festival of Animation Berlin.

Welcome to the 40th INTERFILM Festival!

Four decades of DIY, punk and absolute madness – INTERFILM is back and celebrating: Bodies! In a world that unceasingly subjects bodies to norms and treats them like commodities, we are reclaiming them. Every wrinkle, every gesture, every imperfection is unique and writes its own (hi)stories. Like bodies, our festival has also gone through transformations of its own – it's grown, stretched, regrouped, while remaining fluid and hungry for the new. To you, our cells as it were, we provide handpicked films – vibrant, diverse and the furthest thing from monotonous.

For our 40th anniversary we are not only putting a focus on Embodiment but are also looking back at our beginnings: Berlin in the 1980s - a city full of anger, thirst for action and resistances. Rebellious bodies on Super 8 film had become beloved among DIY artist, who told their stories in clubs, cafés and upon the Wall. »We were all dilettants, they called us ingenious.« Born out of street fights, wild fashion shows and rebellious projections, INTERFILM became a platform for everything that dares to resist.

Come and experience the energy! Our screens will turn to skin, upon which all that is raw, imperfect and alive can be seen!
