EYE film

Early January update

(The previous idea has been discarded) - New concept:

A mundane object is the source of inspiration for a story.

A small purse made of cheap, woven fabric. An old woman folds large notes to make them smaller and tidy. Her hands are dry and dirty. She fits as many notes as possible into the small purse. Once the purse is full she hides it in her bra, under her clothing. She walks to the bank and deposits the money.

The story is told through close-ups of the actions and a voice over.

The Disobedient Body (working title)

Images: raw, fleshy, grotesque, sensual, textured, aiming at creating some sort of physical reaction in the spectator -> the spectator’s body is therefore part of the subject of this film.

Text: poetic text (work in progress) that refers to how a body may function, disfunction and appear.

Artists that are in my mood-board:

• Peter Greenaway
• Chris Cunningham
• Jill Soloway
• Sophie Calle

Production plan:

At the moment I am just accumulating ideas, images, notes and sketches on this concept.

During the Christmas break I will make a storyboard and start contacting potential performers.

January will be dedicated to shooting and finally editing.
