Sin Fin: Performances at the Core of the Looking-Glass

剧情介绍

"sin fin - Performances at the Core of the Looking-Glass" is the last film of the performance-based trilogy "sin fin" by artist duo VestAndPage. Teetering between the real and the visionary, the films feature the two protagonists undertaking surreal and ephemeral acts. Amplified by the unfamiliar environments, the performances reflect on universal human experiences such as altruism, partnership and the transient nature of existence. This concluding work, filmed in Antarctica, engages with narratives on nature and the universe. Here the two characters move through the deserted, icy vastness of an oneiric land. They find themselves creatures being torn between life and death, absence and misleading mirages, fortune and emptiness. The flux of nature is mercilessly immense, where the wind sings its laments and silence its lullaby. All paradises are merciless, in a search for Beauty where anything is a Mirror. Is there any game left to be played, is there someone left to call for, when clocks don't display time anymore, and no compass is guiding one's way? Who's the player and who's the pawn, and whose turn is it, when civilisation has lost its quotidian schemes, and just basic rules count? In the backdrop of Antarctica, a place where humans have neither roots, nor future, but only a frail and temporary presence always at risk, all questions inevitably lead to humbleness.
