Waking Things

Summary

"Cyclical time dilated to the maximum... loaded with details of Nature as memento mori, reminding us of the transience of this and of life itself." (Sentieri Selvaggi, Italy) // "Ciklički put raširen do maksimuma... Ispunjene detaljima Prirode kao mementom mori, podsjećajući nas na prolaznost ovoga kao i samoga života."

Grupa performera Every House has a door izvodi i potpisuje koprodukciju ovog filma: Selma Banich i Mislav Čavajda (Hrvatska) i StephenFiehn i Matthew Goulish (Amerika). Kuća u šumi. Pripreme za arhaični rituala. Svjetla i sjene tajanstvenog svijeta. Redateljica Melika Bass režira kao da vrijeme ne postoji, sa strogošću koja mijenja slike u mrtvu prirodu, puneći ih bolnom i prijetećom ljepotom.

Co­produced by and featuring ensemble members of Every house has a door performance group: Croatian artists Selma Banich and Mislav Cavajda, and American artists Stephen Fiehn and Matthew Goulish. A house in a forest. Preparations for an archaic ritual. Lights and shadows of a mysterious world. Filmmaker Melika Bass directs as if time did not exist, with a rigor that transforms images into still lifes, loading them with a heartbreaking and threatening beauty.
