VERYGOODREASON

2005–2009 · Experimental short film · 6’45” · Switzerland

Written and directed by Julieta Schildknecht
Independent production · Black & white · 4:3 · No dialogue

An experimental surrealist short film in black and white with the texture of Polaroid film. A looped and synchronised sequence of images centred on a porcelain doll unfolds in an uncanny forest environment, approaching a real-life subject. The “Lorelei” music box is repeatedly rewound, accompanied by the sound of an aeroplane entering a fragile mechanical world, suggesting escape, disappearance or an approaching threat.

2010 — Included in the video library of the Casa de la Paz y los Derechos Humanos, San Sebastián, Spain.
