Where Are We Going? (Hey Siri)
Video | hdv | color | 13:59 | Argentina, France | 2018
Floating voices in a swaying space. Gone out looking for an object, the two protagonists digress and get lost in the quest for its historical context, get stirred and disenchanted by human relations, spend time together and find travelling companions. A figurative and abstract sequence in chiaroscuro of an indecisive ride, that follows the trajectories of a conversation between invisible and incorporeal characters. Where do you want to go? I'm sorry, I can't answer that. Where are we going? Here's what I've found : _ A young man and his mom, Robin, Siri, Siri, Chris C. and others.
