Attempts to capture the relationship between Venice and Wagner's musical and psychological world. Wagner's letters, compositions, and poems are used to trace his various visits to Venice in the latter half of the 19th century, and his intense creativity during the period in which he was working on the second act of "Tristan and Isolde." The film's final sequence is built around the "Funeral March for the Death of Siegfried" from "Twilight of the Gods."

Academy Award winning short subject, A child enters a room to get back his ball. Slowly, the entire space becomes filled with bizarre characters, all of them intent on repeating the same gesture ad infinitum. "Thirty-six characters from different stages of life - representations of different times - interact in one room, moving in loops, observed by a static camera. I had to draw and paint about 16.000 cell-mattes, and make several hundred thousand exposures on an optical printer. It took...

"The film All Nothing is an allegory portraying humankind's desire to appropriate all of nature's beauty and resources. For too long, we have held the mistaken belief that the world was created entirely for our benefit. As countless plant and animal species become extinct, our generous planet has little left to offer: clean water and lush forests are becoming increasingly rare. The film ends, however, on a positive note: Frédéric Back cherishes the hope that future generations will...
