Director/Writer: Peter Fouldes
Cast: None.
Genre: Short/Animated
Duration: 11 minutes

Description: From the National Film Board of Canada website: "Animated film satire of self-indulgence in a hungry world. Rapidly dissolving, reshaping images, made with the aid of a computer, create a stark contrast between abundance and want. A man eats, at first sparingly, but his appetite grows to gluttony, greed, and gratification of every desire. The nightmare that finally haunts him is the one that hangs over our disparate world. A film without words."

Sans Soleil (1983) aka Sunless
Title: Sans Soleil (1983) aka Sunless
Director/Writer: Chris Marker
Cast: Florence Delay, Alexandra Stewart. Not much to name, really.
Genre: Essay film/Travelogue
Duration: 104 minutes
Languages: Two audio tracks - choose between French or English narration. Provided with English subtitles.
Description: From Amazon.com: "On the surface, this remarkable 1982 filmed essay by the legendary Chris Marker -- the French filmmaking pioneer whose extraordinary works about the properties of memory (including the 1962 La Jetée, remade by Terry Gilliam as 12 Monkeys) comprise a chapter of French New Wave history -- appears to be a kind of travelogue. Using narration, documentary footage, photographs, and various sorts of mental meanderings, Marker constructs a cinematic parallel to the inherent adventures in journeying through different parts of the world. With great, self-effacing wit, Marker invokes that sense of broadened wisdom and vision that accompanies travel, as well as the delicate problem of trying to communicate the scale of that wisdom and vision to others. The delightful movie takes us to many fascinating sights in Tokyo, but what really develops is a dialogue with the audience about the nature of a filmmaker's pact with them, as well as the insecurity of trying to live up to that promise. A wonderful, clear-eyed experience, one that makes you wonder why Marker continues to be tagged with the obfuscating tag of 'experimentalist.'"
As mentioned above, this release comes with two audio tracks: one with French narration, the other with English narration. Also, it's packaged with English subtitles.
