24 - L-O-V-E, Raya Mazigi (Lebanon)

Love is considered by psychologists as the most vital non-material need for human beings. In this video, a young boy tells us about it and about the determining vital factor in his choice for a sweetheart. This video is a reflection on the primal and instinctive nature of feelings and behaviors commonly associated with love.

15 - I draw much more than I ought to draw because it brings me back you, Dorte Jelstrup (Denmark)

My video deals with the representation of the male nude in the classic medium of drawing and from the point of view of a "feminine gaze” of longing and desire. My video also deals with a prior loss of the desired male nude and points towards the feminine creativity and the formation of symbolic meaning in the act of drawing as a possible compensation for the loss.
