Kingdom, Clouds, Sirens, Pirates, and Dream Sheets

by Mackenzie Reid Rostad

An extended correspondence film dedicated to the residents of Liebig 34, an anarcho-feminist housing cooperative and squat in Berlin that was evicted shortly after the filmmaker's attempted move to the city. Comprising both found and filmed images, the film explores concepts of rent, refuge, and resistance in Berlin and beyond.

Cloud Gate 2

by Kristina Pedersen
