What is true creativity? How do you execute it within the educational system of art schooling? Is it even possible to achieve that fully? When do we need to listen and follow and when we should break free and go against the grain to fully execute our vision?

in a series of screenings and discussions with Daniel Bird and Ladislav Babuscak, we will explore the works of multiple film legends, who have decided to break free from the traditional structures and fashion of their times, only to carve out a unique and highly individualistic path where their complicated career may not have signs of a total success, but eventually resulted in immortality and almost cult-like status of their works, which were not fully appreciated at the time of their release.

Goals:

this incredibly dense, demanding, and loaded module sets its goals in inspiring students to step outside their comfort zone and venture deeper into their inner world of personal themes and approaches. Through screening of multiple daring and influential films that challenged and eventually changed the landscape of filmmaking, students will be able to explore the important relationship between the life of an artist – his work – and subsequential context in what the immortal artwork exists / is / or will be shown. Being confronted with such examples, students will get a chance to apply these reflections on their personal approaches to problems of the creative process and will emerge from this experience enriched with the courage, to be honest, authentic, and more fearless towards the powers of visual storytelling!
