Rhythms Of Mother Earth
Experimental Canada 2019 No dialogue 0:02:29
An experimental short film that merges documentary nature footage from Prelinger archives with a video performance exploring the issue of exile. This combination creates a dreamlike atmosphere that is inspired by the loss of connection to the earth, bodies without roots and ignored rhythms.
Un court-métrage expérimental qui allie des séquences documentaires sur la nature provenant des Archives Prelinger avec une vidéo de performance qui explore la question de l’exil. Cette combinaison créé une atmosphère onirique qui est inspirée par le manque de connexion à la terre, les corps sans racines et les rythmes ignorés.
