HER* HANDS AND HIS SHAPE

HER* HANDS AND HIS FORMS

2017, Austria/Russia, 2x16mm film performance, color, sound, +-14 min.

Do you believe in ghosts? An incantation becomes a refrain in this double projection of sequences from films by women who made films politically, or gave their presence to films politically. Their doubles appear recaptured through Krasnogorsk-3 and Bolex lens and intertwined with landscapes and objects that once haunted the filmmakers. It’s all in her* hands shaping his form, her* labour questioning his authority.
