Videohome
Cinematography
In the midst of a strike, people find their liberty limited by the walls of their homes. In these micro-worlds there are no rules nor conventions and home becomes a white canvas where anyone can rethink life and its nonsense.
Inside
Cinematography
Two friends doggedly build a mysterious artefact in the forest, the function of which remains unclear until the very end. INSIDE starts with a shot of a burnt tree stump in a forest. Materials are gathered. What are the various branches, stones and pieces of grass for and what will the silent activities lead to? INSIDE slowly uncovers an act of human solidarity. The camera hovers around two boys, ramping up the tension, and is supported by an excellent soundtrack.
