16 dream fragments
videoessay, 51 min
by Anette Rose (Berlin)
“In their ‘dream fragments,’ seven women tell of strange incidents they experienced in their sleep. The montage highlights the women’s facial expressions and gestures and, in particular, those aspects that bow to the dictates of language, come to its aid, elude it, race ahead of it, or even circumvent it altogether.”
