Autobianchin: Les bras d'Amelie

Boukraa Jeanne | Belgium | 2017 | 3 min | FR

This music video for a nostalgic song visually connects two seemingly different worlds. In the first world, we watch a story of a young girl who likes snails. But this purple-toned “love story” takes place against the backdrop of drastic war scenes. Both motifs specifically supplement each other, link up and intertwine.

Husky: Ghost

Jonathan Chong | Australia | 2027 | 4 min | EN

This music video was inspired by Mexican tapestries and the celebration of the Day of the Dead. The celebration is a much more joyful occasion than just a morbid reminder of our mortality. The song's rhythmical melody doesn't allow any gloominess. On the contrary, the director of this cheerful ride to the realm of the dead dresses the souls of the deceased in varicoloured tones.

The Shanghai Restoration Project: I Don’t Like the Comics You Drew

Lei Lei | China, United States | 2017 | 4 min | EN

Chinese animator Lei Lei is a versatile artist whose animations have cemented their place at various festivals. The name of this music video is very telling: Lei Lei’s friend showed him a page of a comic book he drew, but Lei Lei wasn’t overly enthusiastic about it. And despite that – or perhaps thanks to it – Lei Lei was inspired by it to make a grotesque music video.

Flori de plastic (Plastic Flowers) is an animated music video which shapes through music, lyrics and image an overwhelming, stern world in which the artificial mimics reality to such a degree that the protagonist finds it more and more difficult to distinguish reality from illusion, in the pursuit of his own inner fulfilment.
