INTERRUPTIONS

Country: Italy
Year: 2004
Duration: 14


Two stories bond together by an interruption. Golden Beach: two distant events that juxtapose in one vision. A summer day in Florida in 1978 and a summer day in Italy in 2004; a small witness of the past, a beautiful sunny day, in the scenery of an off screen extreme gesture. Surface Tension: a man lying in bed. The curve of his knees traces mountains, the limbs, deep and calm valleys. But even among the purest mountain tops, there are hidden abysses and cliffs.

"These two short films come from the idea of telling stories without showing the actual happenings, but only the details and the changes they induce. It is a work on the feelings evoked by certain images, combined with a precise sound location, giving the audience the sense of what is happening thanks to an intuition process instead of the real formulation of facts. These films can be seen separately inside a gallery, like paintings with moving images." (D. Pepe)
