A woman (Ma?gorzata Kurek) has s pent years trapped in the solitude of a bunker\, unable to leave due to li ngering radiation. Her world is built from fragments and echoes of what on ce existed. One day\, she leaves her shelter and begins an unexpected jour ney. On the surface\, she encounters inexplicable phenomena and meets a my sterious stranger (Pawe? Mandziewski).This experimental work returns to th e essence of silent cinema\, blending visual storytelling with atmospheric soundscapes. Through its poetic\, symbolic language and contemplative pac e rooted in the tradition of slow cinema\, Orange Frames invites viewers i nto a multifaceted\, hypnotic world. Instead of offering a fixed narrative \, it creates space for open experience and interpretation.In the live-scr eening format\, the film is accompanied by live improvised music\, combini ng a contemporary mix of electronic and instrumental sound with traditiona l Azerbaijani influences.

Trailer: (465) ORANGE FRAMES - Official Tr ailer | Gamid Ibadullayev - YouTubeTitle: Orange FramesYear: 2025Genre: Ex perimental FilmRunning Time: 50 minutes (around 55 minutes with live perfo rmance)Screenplay\, Direction\, Production: Gamid Ibadullayev -- \;Sel ection of Surreal Short Films Talissa Mehringer?s films explore darker nar ratives of subconscious\, dream-like worlds. Non-dialogue-driven and accom panied by original music compositions featuring field recordings\, industr ial elements\, and layered textures\, her fever-dream fairy tales come to life on screen. The viewer is transported into these otherworldly environm ents through her use of heavily stylized art-direction\, hand-made sets + props and stop motion animated sequences. The protagonists are themselves often lost souls in these worlds\, representing melancholia\, solitude and yearning for things lost or desired. The music is always of equal importa nce and takes on a character of its own as it guides the characters emotio nally. About the Director:Talissa Mehringer studied film + media arts in N YC where she lived and worked for 8 years. She learned to be resourceful a nd used found objects from the streets of Brooklyn to make surreal stop-mo tion animations\, buillding sets from discarded materials in her windowles s basement apartment. Her experiences in the Big Apple hugely informed her unique visual style and DIY approach to filmmaking. Born into a family of social anthropologists\, she gained early insight into her parents? field work and projects. At six\, she visited the Canela tribe in the Brazilian Amazon basin with them\, and a year later moved to Tanzania\, where she wi tnessed and took part in Maasai ceremonies. These formative experiences sp arked her interest in exploring and documenting the world\, and played a k ey role in shaping her passion for filmmaking. She has worked on all-encom passing installations in Minneapolis and Berlin\, painted murals at festiv als in Tilburg\, Bristol\, and Würzburg\, and exhibited and screened internatio nally across Europe and the US.www.talissamehringer.com Selection of Short filmsYear: 2011-2026Genre: Experimental FilmRunning Time: c.a 45minutesDi rection\, Editing\, Sound/Music: Talissa Mehringer\n\nViel Spass wünscht Gratis -in-Berlin\n\nLink zum Tip: \nZu den Gratis-in-Berlin Angeboten: http://ww w.gratis-in-berlin.de\n DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260608 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260609 SUMMARY:Experimental Film Night & Live Improvised Soundtrack END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
