Deadline:
Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:00

Location:

International Film Festival Rotterdam
ATTRACTION OF THE OPPOSITES

CologneOFF 2011 selection
"Attracted by the opposite?"
curated by Wilfried Agricola de Cologne
http://maxx.nmartproject.net/?p=161
http://downloads.nmartproject.net/CologneOFF2011_Rotterdam.pdf
Do people really feel attracted by the opposite? Black does not exist
without white, good not without bad. The one is depending on the other.
If an opposite is existing, at all, the existing “standard” is being
defined via its opposite, which is setting the actual values, the
relations between each other. Being attracted by the opposite is
actually no more than searching consciously or unconsciously for the
“whole”, an attempt to find an unity combining and relating the two
opposite poles to each other. An uptopia? The selection of videos is
spotlighting not only the phenomenon of the duality from different
points of views and positions, but also the resulting relativity.

Two years ago, "Family Affairs" started with "Mother" as the fundamental part of a family.
