23° TORINO FILM FESTIVAL

Le gabbie dell\'infinito

Country: Italy

Year: 2005

Duration: 6\'

Sinking in a strange fluid and visiting in silence, to the only sound of music, the cages of infinite. In the darkness, a light illuminates the abyss and shows wreckage and odd shapes that move in the waters. The light follows the fascinating music - by Italian composer Morgan - that both whispers and strikes on the hypnotic trip to the end of it.

"As I closed my eyes I left myself sink down to a place where light looks at you but doesn't kill." (G. Staino)
