**Winner of Worldfest Huston International Film Festival 2017** “Travelling Through Brush and Ink” is a stop-motion animation of a little modern man traveling through four significant ancient Chinese paintings, transforming himself into animals and plants, and becomes part of the nature. Each painting represents four important stages of landscape art in Chinese history. Based on the original paintings, we built the sets and animated little character inside- all frame by frame.

“Roller Coaster” During my trip to Kolkata, India I could only think of one word: Roller Coaster. This film Rollercoaster is the visualization of my feelings, fears and emotions. And therefor probably not the same feelings other people will have while visiting this country. I’m a Cuban filmmaker born in Havana, living in Holland. During my childhood in the streets of Havana I’ve seen many things. But compared to 1 week India I realized that my life in the streets in Havana weren’t that bad after all. The one thing that stays on my mind was a little baby sleeping alone in the streets, which made me think of my own daughter who grows up protected and loved. The energy of this country, the spirituality of the people and the spark in their eyes makes this the most special trip I made in my whole life. Thank you India for the opportunity to allowing me to film you with all of your beautiful people. 1000childrens Warm and special thanks to 1000childrens.org for giving me this opportunity which will stay with me for a lifetime. Please visit their website and help them help the street children of Kolkata. Filmed and edit by Yuribert Capetillo Hardy – www.yosoyvideo.com

From the archives of the “queer Smithsonian,” San Francisco’s GLBT Historical Society, comes the forgotten history of a gay Korean War veteran tasked with writing the military discharges of outed gay seamen. The Typist details a conflicted clerk’s participation in discrimination and his divided allegiance to homosexuality and heroism. The Typist has toured in festivals internationally, inspired a feature length Buzzfeed article on LGBTQ military experiences, screened at the National Gallery of Art, and played on Alaska Airlines.

Clinging to a smooth, curved surface high above a sentient abyss, a girl tries to cover the few feet back to safety without losing purchase and falling to her death.

In a time of anarchy and forgotten morals, one man obsesses over the way to fix it.

On June 11th, 1997, Philippe Kahn created the first camera phone solution to share pictures instantly on public networks. The impetus for this invention was the birth of Kahn’s daughter, when he jerry-rigged a mobile phone with a digital camera and sent photos in real time. In 2016 Time Magazine included Kahn’s first camera phone photo in their list of the 100 most influential photos of all time.
