Water Hands
2011 · 92m · Drama · Documentary
Water hands is the literal Chinese word for ‘sailor’. The sailor himself remains off-screen in this film, just like the woman who is waiting for him. The tight black-and-white images move through Singapore and Montenegro, while a logic all of its own links the various worlds and narrations.

Ravage
2024
