BA – UnratedWhether it refers to a stage when the subject of a ratification process hasn’t been allocated to any official classification yet, or a permanent position of actively rejecting tags and categorization, the term ‘unrated’ is associated with a sense of exteriority. The Hungarian-Slovak collective BA – Unrated (Besorolás Alatt) aims to operate in such an unrated territory and find inspiration through experimenting with electro-acoustic music, field-recordings; separating and re-joining layers of sounds with the use of feedback loops and online streaming. BA – Unrated (Besorolás Alatt) is the ongoing cooperation of András Blazsek, Maté Kiss, Imrich Kovács, Csilla Nagy, Gergő Nagy, Lívia Nolasco-Rózsás, Zoltán Pethő, Attila Zérczi.

In Lands End "home is displayed as an estranged, scenic landscape, as an interior and a cultivated garden at the same time: a place once left, a place waiting for its reoccupation, a place of one’s own at the end of the world." (Nolasco-Rózsás)
The film was inspired by Stanislaw Lem’s Return from the Stars (1961).
Commissioned for the Biennale JCE — Jeune Création Européenne, Edition 2013-2015.
