The Hot & The Cold is an expanded cinema performance using 16mm and anaglyph 3D slide film, sound, light, and a fog machine. Inspired by phantasmagoria, the 18th century magic lantern spectacle of mysticism and horror, the screening uses the cinematic apparatus as a means to generate a state simultaneously suspended between being caught in the illusion while being aware of its unreality. The Hot & The Cold is screened together with the found footage film Comfort Stations. 

Anja Dornieden and Juan David González Monroy are filmmakers based in Berlin. Under the moniker Ojoboca they have presented their work in a variety of venues and festivals, including Österreichisches Filmmuseum, Anthology Film Archives, Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlinale, International Film Festival Rotterdam, and New York Film Festival.
