XVII/85 Projektionen

Working "in film," interweaving projected parts of the film, the filmmaker approaches a memory and repeatedly indicates how the seeing and the seen are cyclically superimposed in the image. A fast drive, a road cuts through the man's silhouette. The gaze advances through a young forest, following a woman from above who soon reveals her calm, bright face from up close, alternating with that of the man. We advance slowly down a hallway, the woman's face in double exposure. Viewed in close-up, a row of lamps creates sections and perspectives. Hovering lights appear in succession. Steps and a pumping pulsation lead to a car ride, while the white section of the sky bleaches the woman's image.
