Press Kit

Logline:

A woman heals a rag doll; or is it the other way round?

A woman and a rag doll, darkness, a shroud of mystery... a healing.

Long Synopsis:

An intimate world wrapped up in bass clarinet music.
A solitary, mysterious woman whose gasps are punctuated by water drop sounds.  
A threatening curtain slides across.
Something is not quite right with what we are looking at.

On the other side of a shaking door a rag doll inside a man's black shoe.
The woman takes him to bed. Darkness and nightmares.
She sends herself a message in morse code.

Next morning, after watering an onion, she starts a loving relationship with him.
But suddenly, in a dreamlike state, she feels anger and throws him away.
She leaves him in a narrow corridor and vanishes without trace climbing up the walls.

When she returns home, however, something moves her to bring him back.

He's full of thorns now.

Then a healing takes place...

Logline:

A composer obsessed with a beautiful woman suffers an accident that propels him
on a journey of self discovery through the strange world of a Greek myth.

Synopsis:

Thomas Valdemar, a middle aged composer who doesn't fit in a world where music has
no place, is trapped in a dark relationship with a woman named Diane.
Suffocated by the situation he drives his motorbike across the city and crashes
full-speed into a wall.

After the accident, in a coma, Thomas finds himself transported into a strange world
where a sleepwalker provides seven hunting dogs to nudge him towards Diane.

But in this mythical, dream world, Diane is the Greek goddess who'll transform him into a stag and leave him to be devoured by his own hunting dogs. His punishment for daring to see what cannot be spoken. His violent end in this comatose realm jolts him back to real life in the hospital with a new awareness.
