The project is the animation of the fairy tale "The chained elephant". "The Chained Elephant" is one of the stories of psychiatrist Jorge Bukay from his book "Let me tell you a story" which he tells to his client. It refers to a child' s question who notices that a huge circus elephant remains tied to a small stick without trying to free itself and without protesting. The circus elephant remained tied to his tiny stick because "the memory of the weakness he felt shortly after his birth is etched in his memory."

Direction and animation: Papa Alkistis, Music and composition: Nicky Kokkoli, Sound engineer: Chrysanthi Matsagka

This project is an attempt to visualize the experience of lucid dreams. Psychologists such as Carl Jung and visual artists such as Salvador Dali believed that dreams are a gateway to exploring the individual and the universe, leading to a better knowledge of oneself. Using cartographic projection of a two-dimensional animation, and referring to the work of Klaus Obermaier and Nobumichi Asai, a body is separated from the soul which tries to escape into the imaginary universe, outside its natural bonds. Only a small part succeeds, thus offering the person the experience of LUCID DREAMS.

Aynadamar: An important place as far back as when the Arabs were in the area. The whole region of Andalusia was supplied with water through that spring, reaching as far as Madrid. Several years later, the poet and playwright Federico Garcia Lorca is taken there to be executed. His work in turn supplied the whole Spain and spread to the rest of the world. The documentary intertwines significant events of his life with dramatised excerpts from his work, aiming at achieving Duende (as Lorca used to say), the quintessence of all things.
