History of Proximity
1m 39s
Inspired by the evocative drawings of Lisa Est and the poignant poetry of Herbert J. Wimmer, this experimental film unveils the unspoken 'history of proximity' woven through every tactile encounter. Through a dance across time, touch emerges as evidence of shared experiences, sparking a new narrative of unity and connection.
The subtitles are deliberately integrated with the images, as the text forms an inseparable component of the cinematic narrative, intertwining seamlessly within it. The narrator delivers two poems with a condensed, introspective tone, further emphasizing this fusion. The burned-in subtitles serve as an artistic expression within the film, their placement and spacing adding depth to the fragmented text, enriching its significance.
