剧情介绍
An aerial journey over an unspecified major western city. We see a large television screen that projects advertising images within a public space, a heavily urbanized architecture, and an inhabited coastline. At the same time, voices escaped from a film, call out meetings to take or to miss, speak of cinema as utopia, and discuss the world as will and depiction.
Biography: Bouchra Khalili is a French-Moroccan video-artist, born in 1975 in Casablanca. Bouchra Khalili has devoted herself to video work, both in single channel and installation form, since 2002. The artist uses this medium for its impurity, which allows her to place her work at the very limits of cinema and the fine arts, documentary and experimental work, blurring the lines between these two practices. Her videos explore the Mediterranean area seen as a territory dedicated to a wandering, nomadic existence. She documents the places she passes through, their images and the images they generate. Khalili produces representations of these spaces' mental dimension by placing them in an unusual perceptive experience, thus testifying to the contemporary reality of emigration and its stories.
