Melodica
Director of Photography
Perceiving a closed world where beauty, architecture and geometry are given equal status to murder, love and philosophical thought. Like the concepts of Oscar Wilde’s portrait story of Dorian Gray, where beauty and sensual fullfilment are the only worthy pursuits of the protagonist, the film’s aesthetics are composed and imbued by painting. The references and events of Melodica are sourced from the painting The Golden Age by Lucas Cranach the Elder.
