From the "film" section in the Flagpole article on Athens Slingshot:
"Small Planet," a showcase of ethnographic and experimental shorts screening in Ciné’s theater, will feature North American premieres of Than, by London-based filmmakers Danny Winkler and Emilia Loseva; Transit Zone, by Spanish filmmaker Santiago Parres; and Awakening, by Virginian A/V artist Will Copps. In addition, selections from Petites Planètes, an ongoing series by Paris-based, nomadically living filmmaker Vincent Moon, will be screened at 5:30 and 7:30 p.m. Much more than a mere archival project, Petites Planètes is a subjective collection of recorded portraits exploring the music and rituals of cultures across the globe.
