OPIS

OPIS

An essay film rooted in experimental cinema and queer storytelling. A female narrator (fellow artist Kathi Hofer) provides the voice over for this film, making it a reflection on the director’s life and her journey through Europe (which started off in the summer of 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic). Associative spaces unfold. A train of thoughts. The boundaries between factual and memories become a blur. How much of her personal story can be read more globally?
Visual portraits of Europe's faraway places, away from typical tourist hot spots provide the mise en scene for this film. Landscapes in transition, pictures of movement, visually resembling the long journeys she has undertaken using trains, ferries and public transport. The underlying sound compositions made by the Dutch musician Machinfabriek evoke feelings of isolation and alienation, but are still somewhat placeable and warm.
