P has lost confidence in language. She expresses her insecurity about language with her girlfriend; people speaking in different languages all mixed up together visit her; in a liquor store she talks in imaginary gestures, and back home she dances. All attempts fail, and rather than restoring her confidence, they create the general problem of communication \u2013 the \u00bbnot understanding each other\u00ab. Over the course of seven chapters, following a loose plot, P lives out her thought experiment.<\/p>\n
Jury Statement:<\/strong>
\nA short film about loss of language, the preoccupation with this loss and the possibility of finding a solution. The cinematography successfully combines precisely composed images, well-controlled lighting and strong colour dramaturgy thanks to the costume and design work. Despite the film\u2019s conceptual reduction, the audience is still emotionally involved in \u00bbP\u00ab\u2019s world. Marie Zahir\u2019s work succeeds in making the invisible visible. The film consists of several acts, whereby each act offers a self-contained concept of resolution that is not repeated and results in a plausible whole. The 50 m long tracking shot is another example of the worthwhile effort.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":21245,"template":"","movie_year":[24],"movie_genre":[80],"movie_cat":[278],"festival":[306],"class_list":["post-7200","movie","type-movie","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","movie_year-24","movie_genre-feature-film-en","movie_cat-national-competition-for-women-directors-of-photography-en-2018","festival-2018-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
