SLOW LIGHT
(orig. )
France 2023Language:EnglishSubtitles:EnglishDirector:Katarzyna KIJEK, Przemysław ADAMSKI11 min, Colour
A boy who was born blind, suddenly at the age of seven sees a light.
A medical examination reveals that his eyes are so dense that it takes
seven years for the light to reach the retina and hence for the image
to reach his consciousness.
The consequence of the eye defect translates into the mental
immaturity of the man, lack of understanding of the present and
belated reflections on long-gone facts. The man is never mature
enough for his age and constantly lingers on the past.
Film made in original technique representing the tactile reality of the
present and 2D animation showing the past.
