MwS (Palmaria) - ISLAND

Synopsis Somewhere in the Cosmos there exists a strange place, hidden between worlds old and new. In this place there is a factory. Every day newcomers travel through this whimsical space, where devoted workers - trapped there for unknown reasons- have the unique gift of returning what seemed lost. Director's Note One take - fix camera choreography for this unique project for the italian duo MwS (now Palmaria). A very challenging project I really wanted to work on. My main intention with this work was to take out the “editing” and create one long shot, like if it was a moving painting to watch, slowly, in every of its part, and just enjoy what’s going on on screen from a wide angle perspective. Multiple stories overlap while the audience tries to understand what’s going on in there… An homage to one of my hero, Hayao Miyazaki. (full credits below)
