Floating Islands

2023 · 95 min

A drifting, dreamlike essay of images and voices that asks you to surrender to its rhythm rather than follow a story.

Genres
Documentary
Overview
What story is hidden in the stranded suitcase full of pictures, sounds and letters whose origins we do not know? The film is an homage to cinema, a film poem made up of images between dream and reality; a network of sounds, text fragments and voices that leads far out into the world and at the same time close to us. Aren’t we all floating islands?
How it feels
Slow-burning and demanding.
