PENELOPE / IN THE SCENERY / REFLECTING / RELATIONS

The essayist short film investigates possibilities for organizing text and narrative forms. Penelope weaves and ties text fragments together to tell a big story out of little ones, whereby the story is arranged according to the principle of “mise en abîme”. This is a modern Penelope; we find out something about her relationships without seeing her partners.
