A short study of moving image as a means not only to capture personal stories but also to induce the viewer to take part and become an active witness.
The programme included experimental and documentary films, where the narrative was not a clear-cut story but a sequence of emotions experienced by the creators and recorded through their camera lens. Through powerful combinations of sound and visuals, the audience was then prompted to be part of an emotional journey.
Many of these films were shared once. Having fulfilled their initial purpose of encapsulating most intimate feelings, they were then often out of sight. Sometimes so were their creators.
‘Hidden out’ brought these films to the public once again and in doing so reinstated their significance for the arts scene and the artistic value of their creators.
