Danse Macabre

Pedro Pires

Canada | V.O. - Without dialogue | 2008 | 9 min | 35 mm | color | Experimental

For a period of time, while we believe it to be perfectly still, lifeless flesh responds, stirs and contorts in a final macabre ballet.
Are these spasms merely erratic motions or do they echo the chaotic twists and turns of a past life?
