a short film by Jean-Laurent Csinidis
France/Austria 2011 // 12min
A girl dances through a Japanese garden, where mainly old people are strolling around in a peaceful atmosphere. A lingering eeriness pervades their rituals, following the sweet and unrelenting pace of a shishi-odoshi. The garden itself seems to pay particular attention to one of the old men.
