LIEBE OR OTHER OTHERS

by Paul Wenninger

Expérimental Pixilation In development Short film
In LIEBE OU OTHER OTHERS, we enter the personal spaces of four different people and explore with them the world of the things that surround them. What moves them? What permeates them? What connects them? What elevates them? How do they navigate these various objects in the choreography of everyday life? We want to push this exploration to the point of absurdity in order to question our natural and seemingly inviolable bodily integrity. In this quest, love will be our compass.

This film is loosely based on the painting “The Garden of Earthly Delights” by Hieronymus Bosch, created between 1490 and 1500.
