Watch the Fire or Burn Inside It

For years the island of Corsica has been stricken by devastating wildfires. But even if the directors employ mobile phone records of burning forests, they are not interested in the impotent concern known from news broadcasts around the world. Instead, theirs is a film of nervous excitement about a woman in love with fire. Oscillating between music video aesthetics and essayistic reflection, they open up new perspectives on dancing flames. Fire is a threat but also a means of rebellion, for people and the earth. At some point, it becomes unclear whether we’re looking at a film or a fire. (Patrick Holzapfel)
This film will be shown as part of the screening SHORT FILM PROGRAMME 6: BURNING.
