The Sound Barrier
Singapore│2022│Fiction│19'│DCP│Color│Asian Premiere
As artifacts from the past, recordings of any kind allow us to preserve relics of our loved ones after their passing. But, while images merely let us see them physically, sounds retain echoes of their anima: the cadence of their speech, the train of their thoughts, and their individual, intrinsic, inimitable rhythm. Just as grief comes in waves, the sounds of this symbolic bird reach the other shore. To listen is to drown. (Sébastien Simon)
