Check our manifesto https://www.filmexplorer.ch/about/manifesto/ EXPLORER Even though moving images have become one of the most common and familiar languages, technological and cultural transformations are constantly changing the way we produce and receive them. The number of cinemas is decreasing but the number of screens in our societies increases. Filmexplorer wants to be sensitive to the uncommon, the unknown, the new in the world of moving images – a world to be explored. That’s why traveling is so important to us: traveling to see the movies, traveling in/with the movies, letting the movies travel. EXPERIENCE Filmexplorer focuses on movies as sources of experience, and not as commodities to be consumed. Experience as a principle of discovery means effort, commitment, curiosity, passion, and taking the time to enjoy a movie – a revolutionary stance today. That’s why Filmexplorer doesn’t have a quantitative, but a qualitative target, and addresses people who share our passion for moving images. EXPERIMENTAL Loving movies and taking time to enjoy them means being ready to go beyond the usual boundaries of filmmaking and being open to movies that have an artistic value. Filmexplorer promotes movies that experiment, because experimentation is the secret ingredient of experience, and also the perfect way to interrogate and learn about the formal aspects of moving images – which is fundamental to obtaining a true film culture and being flexible towards the changes of today.
