FORGE
EXPERIMENTAL FILM
Forge explores creative repetition. Our character finds herself trapped in an ominous world made up of daunting silhouettes and stark monoliths. It feels claustrophobic.
She turns and looks above, a small beam of light reveals itself, catching
her eye, hinting of something beyond. Something different.
A moment of contemplation.
Then, like wings, she spreads her arms with explosive force, parting the monoliths. She feels free, energised. Light fills the space, exposing the silhouettes, diminishing their severity.
As she dances, colourful landscapes take shape, vibrant plants and
trees bursts into life. Organic trails vividly mimic her energetic movements.
She looks up toward the sky and raises her hand, modulating the sun cycle, day shifts into night and back into day.
She is in control.
