-is short film is a fuller exploration of the feeling of limbo. I tried to capture a dream-like atmosphere in this film, taking advantage of the bright yellow sun that happened to appear that night. I was trying to come up with images and scenarios that would come up in that limbo, half-dream half-awake state. The whole idea came from watching older films like Wild Strawberries and Colour Of Pomegranates which are experimental in their idea of storytelling and non-linear ideas. The image of the watch suggests a theme of time, along with the books reinforcing this idea of past and future and time.

This very short film is one of many I’ve created trying to explore a vivid feeling and trying to capture it, in this case, as economically as I could with some old footage I had lying around.
