20° TORINO FILM FESTIVAL

ddv diavoli della valle

DDV - Devils of the Valley

Country: Italy
Year: 2002
Duration: 13'


One night, in a house up in the mountains, a girl is raped and killed by four assailants. But is it all this simple? What if the girl were part of a game of rituals and magic and the assailants were the true victims? What if it all took place so that a group of witches (including the girl) can be reborn through magic?

"This is an experiment in cinema of the sensations, where the screenplay is supported by a grandiose work of postproduction that èchanges' the expression of the spectators, where the editing tries to copy the way the mind reconstructs the images. It could be merely a dream, if lived like a dream it reveals itself as it jumps between one image and another" (P. Ferrari).
