HONORABLE MENTION AWARD FOR TWO! (❤️london❤️)

Happy that once again TWO has been recognized with an Honorable Mention Award. Grateful to Screener Short Films in London, UK for the love!

Two 16mm, DV TRT: 8:04, USA, 2018
 Logline:
The conversation—between sound and image, seasons come and gone, natural and altered landscapes, and an unseen man and woman—begins as a duet between a video diary and a field recording, and ends as an archive of the possibilities hibernating in each moment. Synopsis:Two filmmakers set out to create an audio archive for possible use in future projects. She records ambient sounds, vocally annotating them with a brief description; he films the environments through which they pass. The time frame is indeterminate, but wintry branches stripped of their leaves give way to summer greenery, a rain-soaked stretch of highway yields to an overgrown lawn drenched in sunlight, observed by a motionless cat. The woods and rivers feel primeval, long predating the construction of an abandoned house that has fallen into ruin. A passing truck rumbles from the past through the present and into the future. Years later, will her outstretched arms still be reminiscent of the naked tree branches, the way they were that day? Will they discover missed clues about their future in the muffled sound of their footsteps and the footprints, single file then side-by-side, imprinted in the moss? In this archive of sound and image, love is a series of moments made sacred by the present. While nothing is resolved, perhaps in the hushed interplay between the woman and the man, between her sounds and his images, "the end and the beginning were always there." (T.S. Eliot, The Four Quartets) ~ Released August 2018 ~ [selected screenings] [for more ▶︎vasiliospapaioannu.com/two] • Fargo Film Festival // Fargo, ND // March 2021 • Video Art Festival Miden // Kalamata, Greece // January 2021 • Calcutta International Short Film Festival // West Bengal, India // December 2020 • Mindfield Film Festival // Albuquerque, NM // September - October 2020 ★SILVER AWARD-BEST EXPERIMENTAL SHORT★ • Rhizome DC-Virtual Microcinema Experimental Shorts // Washington, DC // August 2020 • Experimental Forum // Los Angeles, CA // July 2020 ★HONORABLE MENTION AWARD★ • The Art of Brooklyn Film Festival // Brooklyn, NY // June 2020 • 23rd International Encounters Traverse [Traverse Vidéo] // Toulouse, France // March 2020 • Brussels Independent Film Festival // Brussels, Belgium // February 2020 • New Jersey International Film Festival - Rutgers University // New Brunswick, NJ // January 2020 • FROSTBITE International Indie Festival // Colorado Springs, CO // January 2020 ★BEST EXPERIMENTAL FILM★ • Cinecipó // Belo Horizonte, Brazil // December 2019 • FIVA’9-Festival International de Videoarte // Buenos Aires, Argentina // December 2019 • CODEC Festival Internacional de Cine Experimental Y Video // Mexico City, Mexico // November 2019 • ULTRAcinema // Oaxaca, Mexico // November 2019 • 64th Cork Film Festival // Cork, Ireland // November 2019 • 32nd Festival Instants Vidéo Numériques et Poétiques (Friche la Belle de Mai), France // November 2019 • Film Crash Film Festival // Los Angeles, CA // October 2019 ★FIRST PRIZE EXPERIMENTAL FILM★ • NewFilmmakers NY // Anthology Film Archives, New York City, NY // October 2019 • Oaxaca Filmfest // Oaxaca, Mexico // October 2019 • Arizona Underground Film Festival // Tucson AZ // September 2019 • Marienbad Film Festival // Mariánské Lázně, Czech Republic // August 2019 • CineAutopsia, Bogota' Experimental Film Festival // Bogota', Colombia // August 2019 • EXiS (Experimental Film and Video Festival in Seoul) // Seoul, South Korea // July 2019 • Seattle Transmedia & Independent Film Festival // Seattle, WA // July 2019 • Revelation Perth International Film Festival ~Experimental Showcase~ // Perth, Australia // July 2019 • Pugnant Film Series // Athens, Greece // July 2019 • Crossroads 10, SFMOMA // San Francisco, CA // June 2019 • FILMADRID // Madrid, Spain // June 2019 • Laterale Film Festival // Cosenza, Italy // June 2019 • 21st Moviate Underground Film Festival // Harrisburg, PA // May 2019 • 11th Magmart International Videoart Festival // Naples, Italy // May 2019 • WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival // Houston, TX // April 2019 ★REMI AWARD, BEST EXPERIMENTAL FILM★ • Ibrida Festival ~PERCEZIONI~ // Forli’, Italy // April 2019 • Lucca Film Festival & Europa Cinema // Lucca, Italy // April 2019 • Tallahassee Film Festival ~VISIONS~ // Tallahassee, FL // April 2019 • Denver Underground Film Festival // Denver, CO // March 2019 • UWM Union Cinema - Save the Archives Film Festival // Milwaukee, WI // September 2018 ▪︎▫︎ Los Angeles Underground Film Forum //✩HONORABLE MENTION AWARD✩ Indie Visions //✩BEST EXPERIMENTAL SHORT FILM✩ [March 2019] ▪︎▫︎ Cannes Short Film Corner Clermont-Ferrand Short Film Market

TWO mentioned in ELCULTURE.GR!!!!!! 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

Two will be part of Festival Miden in Greece, from January 1-31. The section is called “Carry On”.

The video program presents 7 contemporary Greek artists who use different morphological and conceptual elements in their work, having as a common axis the concept of wandering (and sometimes stopping), physically and spiritually.

Η ενότητα παρουσιάζει 7 σύγχρονους Έλληνες καλλιτέχνες που χρησιμοποιούν διαφορετικά μορφολογικά και εννοιολογικά στοιχεία στο έργο τους, με κοινό άξονα την έννοια της περιπλάνησης (και ενίοτε της στάσης), φυσικής και πνευματικής. 

▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼

Vasilios Papaioannu takes us on a journey of inner search in a film that tries to guess the future while capturing a timeless present through poetic images that seem eerie and dreamy.

Ο Βασίλειος Παπαϊωάννου μας παρασύρει σε ένα ταξίδι εσωτερικής αναζήτησης που προσπαθεί να μαντέψει το μέλλον και να συλλάβει ένα διαχρονικό παρόν μέσα από ταξιδιωτικές ποιητικές εικόνες που μοιάζουν μακρινές, ονειρικές.
