Film description
When staring at the evening sky, we revere the stars and try read the future, even if we are aware that the light that reaches us comes from stars that are long gone. A genuinely romantic experimental director (and student of Harun Farocki) seems to have as a starting point this charming paradox, as he attempts to imprint on the film’s photosensitive emulsion the movement of the stars in the skies. A sensual anatomy of the medium’s typical attribute – the dialogue between the rays of light and the palpable darkness in the cinematic apparatus – that takes us to another dimension, on the cinema’s eternal star boulevard.
