Black Box Shorts: Female Perspectives
Part of the Black Box Strand
What begins with a striking critique of Hollywood bathtub scenes gives way to an examination of female experience from a broad range of perspectives. Sensitive, sensuous and self-reflective, these films involve a reconceptualisation of the female body, exploring gestures and traces, and opening out onto interior and exterior landscapes. From the dynamic to the dreamlike, different approaches to temporality invite the spectator into the subjective experience across generations.
Contains flashing images.
