le corps morcele (2025)

Vicky Smith · 4 min · Letterboxd ↗

Animation, performance and hand processed black&white film combine to describe the body repeatedly succumbing to gravity and to horizontality. Pixilation, typically used to attribute physical superpowers, in this case renders actions that are suspended, directionless and thwarted. As multiple superimpositions accrue, the individual body is submerged by a mass of limbs.

le corps morcele screens once in London: Close-Up Film Centre, Thursday 22 October at 20:15.
