aKido "Les Humains" (dir: Félix Lajeunesse, Paul Raphaël, Thien Vu Dang)
Another one of ours from Montreal. I had posted it a while ago but couldn't for the life of me figure out how to link images...

Reminds me somehow of "Bezhin Lug", 1937

Well we made the video almost entirely out of public domain footage from that era, including Behzin Lug. Nice catch :)

very very awesome. one of the best executions of recontextualized old films i've seen. well paced, great track too. my only complaint is the confusing ending. did you use archive.org?

Thanks.. we just went through a whole bunch of DVDs really, made an image bank of what we thought we'd need and just took it from there.
