CRUMBLING

1996, 35mm, 4’24”

The crumbling of a love-affair is simbolically emphasized by an accidentally simultaneous event.


’Perfect construction of the image, abstraction of the colors and the noises, simpleness and postindustrial chill without concessions to cliché’ (Piera Detassis, Cineforum 356, 1996).


Nello stesso luogo due storie che nulla hanno a che vedere l’una con l’altra cominciano, si sviluppano parallelamente e finiscono. Di fatto, una delle due sottolinea il frantumarsi dell’altra.


‘Costruzione perfetta dell’immagine, astrazione dei colori e dei rumori, semplicità e gelo postindustriale senza concessioni al cliché’. (Piera Detassis, Cineforum 356, 1996)
