Turtle

The head of a turtle coming out of her shell. The slow motion provides for bizarre analogies: a child coming out of her mother’s wombs, an alien birth, as if you could only speak of an absolute stranger being born. 16mm film, colour, no sound, 2'40" Produced by Frac Île-de-France/Le Plateau, Paris
