Yes, but...

Magda Guidi | Italy | 2000 | 3 min

In her debut film, Magda Guidi combines drawing with acrylic painting on paper. In the film, the viewers concurrently watch a tightrope walker balancing between street lamps and a girl sitting at a piano. What do their worlds have in common and are they really separated? Suggestive animation draws the audience into a whirlwind of peculiar images.

That’s the Time

Magda Guidi | Italy | 2004 | 4 min

This captivating film shows an indirect meeting of two characters. A girl goes roller-skating and her friend is watching her. When the wind rises, it brings a strange atmosphere filled with dizziness and insecurity. It seems that the wind is playing not only with hair and skirts, but also with passing time and an entire stage of life.

Magda Guidi | Italy | 2003 | 5 min

This music video for the band Tre Allegri Ragazzi Morti is an unrestrained choreography of dance and circus acrobatics. Using a montage, the author draws us into a space where all of her characters are in constant movement, both on the ground and in the air.

Via Curiel 8

Mara Cerri, Magda Guidi | Italy, France | 2011 | 10 min

A painful separation. A distance too big to be bridged, in the life of Emma and Dario. The need to distort the memory, to imagine a meeting that never happened, maybe, but keep it as true. Winner of the Torino Film Festival, short section, and awarded a Special Mention at the National Festival du film d’animation Bruz.

St. Laszlo vs St. Mary from Egypt

Magda Guidi | Italy | 2014 | 3 min

In this film, Magda Guidi abandoned her typical combination of drawing with acrylic painting in favour of marker-coloured drawing. But she remained faithful to her characteristic fluid animated ride and so this battle amongst hungry monsters is as suggestive as her previous films. It only replaces the nostalgic poetics of her previous films with rather harsh images.
