- Marjetica Potrc The Croa River community consists of approximately four hundred families spread out across eighty thousand hectares of Amazonian forest.

view. A panning and presentation of a city constructed entirely of glass: Crystal Palace.
[...] we wish everyone a good morning. Today in room 101 we'll be showing a film on the legendary mountain, Mt.
Everest, which according to our sources reaches around 8848 m. At the same time, in room 314, the classical

#2 The Story As Seen From A Moving Viewpoint
- Yukie KamiyaAs a result of filmic expression that has benefited from technological advances, the fusion of Ìthe visualÌ and Ìthe
narrativeÌ is now resulting in unprecedented forms of expression. What kinds of stories are being told by artists
who have acquired the medium of 'the moving image?' How are these stories being told? The focus of this essay
will be on storytelling in the medium of the moving image, which has seen a rapid growth since the mid-nineties.
