Subtitle: Artistic video portrait on Sreečko Kosovel
Production: VPK - Video Produkcija Kregar, 2001
Srečko Kosovel's life cycle is like a raindrop, where poetry is at home. He encounters the poetry very early, in an environment that is his foundation for the first images and the realization of truth. His life knows two homes, two centers: light and darkness, sickness and joy, home and abroad. The video image walks through the karst, which is the origin of his poetic images. The story of the image is conceptualistic, based on the karst environment: nature, sky, clouds, vineyards, olive trees, rosemary, se...

Ana Nuša Dragan - In Medias Res (00:47:00)
Subtitle: Artistic video portrait of Metka Krašovec, a painter
Production: TV Slovenija, 2000
Metka Krašovec is a painter, an outsider, a loner, a world traveler, a professor and a wife. She is a fighter but as a woman, she has no problems in a man-determined world. On the contrary, it gives her a lot of freedom because she doesn't have to get involved in power games, which means she can work in peace. The driving force in her painting is not the exploration of language but existential experience, inner necessity, love and the search for God. Her life story is first guided by film image, her...

Ana Nuša Dragan - Ifigenija (00:56:32)
Subtitle: A portrait of Ifigenija Zagoričnik Simonovič
Production: TV Slovenija, 1994
My main concept was to present Ifigenia Zagoričnik-Simonović as a woman who managed to remain a woman in the world of men. It is a question of a woman - an artist, from the point of view of a woman who practiced various professions in order to survive. Today we know her as a renowned Slovenian poet, a woman whose pottery gives meaning to life and independence, a translator and a woman as a cultural ambassador and editor of Slovenian poetry. The portrait is conceptualized, it is a matter of communication -...

Jasna Hribernik - Koncert za mobilne telefone in orkester (00:45:50)
Subtitle: Aldo Kumar in Slavoj Žižek
Production: 2005
Documentary video follows the work and ponderings of composer Aldo Kumar through a perspective of sounds of a mobile phone. We witness long scenes of the composer taking walks in idyllic landscapes and around the city, where everyone is rushing and talking on mobile phones. The author presents 8-bit low quality sound without directly valuating it. The contentious role of mobile phones is analyzed by Slavoj Žižek. He discusses about how mobile phones seemingly make communicating easy, but actually they e...

KOLEKTIVA, Vesna Bukovec, Lada Cerar, Metka Zupanič - Hiteti ali biti temeljit? (00:03:25)
Production: Kolektiva, 2004
A Slovene question that translates into "To hurry or to be thorough?" is being pronounced by English speaking people of different age. We witness drastically different pronunciations, which remind us about how relative the language is and about its power to create illusory differences in the society.

Vesna Bukovec - It Will Be OK (00:03:34)
Production: V.B., 2009
A woman sitting on a white sofa is petting a stuffed toy and in a slow rhythm convincing it and iherself that "it will be ok". This mantric exhortation works like a parody of the power of suggestive thoughts promoted by popular new age movements. We can only see the woman's torso. The dominant white color indicates innocence. Video has no music accompaniment.

Vesna Bukovec - Personal Advice (00:00:59)
Production: V.B., 2010
Personal advice first seems like a secret being revealed by a soft voice, telling us to take its advice. This advice is a completely absurd series of words, which as we soon find out is taken out of astrological forecasts. Visual representation of the video is completely impersonal. The screen is divided into two levels of text also read by an android voice saying: »This is not the best time for an activity plan which calls for art diplomacy and caution as you tend to be extremely simple direct and po...

Vesna Bukovec - Everything I eat turns to health, beauty and love (00:03:48)
Production: V.B., 2010
Video is a part of White Performances / Positive Affirmations, a series calling out the deceptiveness of the ostensible happiness and illusions about a perfect life. The image of the video is clean, with the white color scheme emphasizing immaculateness. We see a woman eating and chanting a mantra, which is a parody of new age lifestyle which promotes the power of suggestive thoughts. Music is light and carefree.

Production: V.B., 2010
Video is a part of White Performances / Positive Affirmations, a series calling out the deceptiveness of the ostensible happiness and illusions about a perfect life. We see a woman cleaning and chanting a mantra, which is a parody pointing out the absurdity of work automatism especially with so called women chores like cleaning, putting on make-up or knitting. The mantra also reminds us of new age lifestyle which promotes the power of suggestive thoughts. Music is light and easygoing, image is clean and imm...
