The first chance to see exciting new forms and hybrids of moving image work from the most innovative and cutting-edge talents in the field. Including premieres of new work, films specially made for the festival and programmes of rarely seen material from the best digital filmmakers in the UK and beyond. An opportunity to see the edgiest visuals from the most talked about moving imagemakers before everyone else. This year's festival takes over both ICA cinemas for a full screening programme over a whole week. Besides premiering onedotzero compilation programmes which includes an abundance of work never before seen in the UK, onedotzero3 includes longer form films, plus new media work and events. ---------------------------------------------------------------- PROGRAMMING: APRIL 30 - MAY 9 ---------------------------------------------------------------- CINEMA SCREENINGS ---------------------------------------------------------------- FEATURES/LONG FORM WORK Meeting People Is Easy First UK public screening in 35mm Directed by Grant Gee/95m Large screen premiere of Grant Gee's critically-acclaimed feature documentary following Radiohead's massive OK Computer tour. Behind-the-scenes footage together with a relaxed graphic sensibility gives a glimpse of a strange life on the road in this adventurous and intelligent concert/tour film. Mainly shot on mini-DV, transferred to 35mm. "Visually the film is a masterpiece combining grainy black and white with acidic colours, juxtaposed images and split-second stills." Dazed & Confused Sneakers: Size Isn't Everything + Goldie: When Saturn Returnz 20m+52m An urban culture double bill comprising a special preview of Milk Projects work-in-progress documentary, based on their successful book Sneakers, looking at the cult of the trainer. Plus the compelling film of drum'n'bass giant, Goldie, taking us on a rollercoaster ride through his high-energy life. Directed by John Akomfrah, in a visceral fusion of film and graphic design. "The most resonant film about urban culture in recent years" Time Out Samurai Fiction UK Premiere Directed by Hiroyuki Nakano/111m Stylish and quirky debut feature by Japanese bad boy promo director Hiroyuki Nakano. A samurai story where Ozu meets Monkey sans supernatural quirks. Intricate camerawork, and fluid fight choreography, sees period oriental fighters accompanied by a beautifully jarring mix of disco beats and rock-guitar solos in this instant cult classic. The resulting brew plays wickedly fast and loose with both Kurosawa and Indiana Jones. "From the opening credits onwards this film is full of creativity and strong graphic qualities but with an incredibly modern edge. Compulsive!" Paul Smith, designer Perfect Blue Special advance preview Directed by Satoshi Kon/80m Hailed as the first feature-length Japanese animation film to deal with contemporary rather than futuristic themes, Perfect Blue is a brilliantly realised mix of social commentary and disturbing psychological thriller from Satoshi Kon, former comic writer and collaborator of Katsuhiro 'Akira' Otomo. Perfect Blue's protagonist is Mima, a pop star turned TV actress whose career slide mirrors her psychological descent towards paranoia and alienation. Kon deftly represents Mima's changing state of mind, driving the film to a violent and unexpected conclusion reminiscent of Polanski's Repulsion. VOXIOO: tomato compilation New work/approx 70m A chance to view new directions and 'Underworld' connections - a definitive collection of new and rarely-seen moving image work from this influential design collective. "As if gibbering fools we blundered, like stuffed mandrills, into talent and exposure, fussed up and poncing off waving video tape and publications. this is some of it. it's called voxioo, (pronounced) vwah-shoo." Including Warchild, Moaner, Blue Velvet Boxing and Project X. radio on [remix] + negative space Directed by Chris Petit/26m+38m Chris Petit pushes the spaces and form of the travelogue and documentary into meditative, experimental territory. radio on [remix] revisits his 1979 film, retracing the films' London to Bristol journey combining the earlier work with the textures and techniques of digital video to create a graphic essay about memory, media and time negative space explores cinema, space and landscape, framed by a journey across the American mid-West, heading for Las Vegas. It provokes argument about the emptiness of contemporary cinema, contrasting it with that of Fassbinder, Rossellini, Godard and Robert Mitchum.
