Hasta La Motion!

I think Jacques Tati’s PlayTime is one of the unrivaled great films of all time, but rather than talk about its socio-economic commentary or its myriad of slapstick gags, let’s take a minute to dive into its extraordinary (and extraordinarily fun) Royal Garden sequence, and explore the inner workings of chaos unfolding.

A stop-motion short by Daniel Sterlin-Altman. “Hilarious and refreshing” – The Concordian “not unlike David Lynch’s ‘Blue Velvet'” – Ars Independent Festival Mum’s calling, and Lisa isn’t pleased. “Hi, It’s Your Mother” is a shocking tragi-comedic stop motion short about family and blood(y) ties.

Located ten miles off the coast of mainland New England, the Oceanic Hotel is the grand, yet far-from-modern home to the thousands of guests who brave the choppy seas to visit during the warmer spring and summer months. Off-season, the hotel and the 43-acre Star Island on which it sits is home to Alexandra de Steiguer – its winter caretaker who braves the colder, darker months of inclement weather by embracing the solitude and finding inspiration, and life, in what would otherwise be considered the ‘bones’ of winter.
