1001 Nights


This film is very short and has no obvious point or meaning at first viewing. It displays 5 women who in turns talk about an individual experience each of them have had containing a lot of description about war and fear. The content and way of filming is very simple in this film but has been used quite effectively to create the feeling of loneliness and the fact that when one women speaks, the others on the screen shut their eyes. This may have been used to emphasize the idea of a dream and everyone around you being asleep an effectively not listening. This video is very much craft based and despite a good use of technology I found it very hard to grasp a meaning or have any connection with it.
