Palms

Yildiz Müge

An 8mm film was burned during projection. The remnants of the film found themselves in a digital scanning device instead of garbage. The found pieces, which were transferred to digital media one by one, piece by piece, square by frame, were brought together on the editing table. This found footage has been turned into a new film about a daydream of a lonely person.
