Story
An intertextual collage, the work was created as the central video for an exhibition exploring the boundary between life and death through ritual and shamanic practices. Much of the work was shot on 16mm film, while altered footage from the director’s other works, Wet Dream and Dowsing, both of which also concern ritual, the dead body, and sensuality, was incorporated into the piece. Excerpts from documentaries on shamanism and several fiction films depicting funerals were also freely excerpted and edited into the work.
