Show Reel 2015

From Helena Hartmann

About the film:

I would describe my characters as neurotic, paranoid, loveable, psychotic, sad, odd, quirky, versatile, fascinating, frantic, lonely, isolated, infantile, obsessive, tidy, maniac, insane, scared, confused, freakish, extraordinary, idiosyncratic, unique, intelligent, anxious, human, honest, schizo-, cruel, sinister and incredibly intriguing. I observe them carefully.

'Loneliness, Bondage/Imprisonment, Childhood, Allure, Love, Mastery/Control, Fear, Perfection, Mistaken, Suffering, Ludicrousness, Power/Might, Escape
The Sublime
The Uncanny
I fabricate a lot of different characters.
They often have to deal with Uncomfortableness.
They have to grapple with Discomfort.
They struggle within this kind of Anxiety.
The imperative of this suffering, of this struggle makes them vulnerable.
Vulnerability makes them manlike.
Including chunks of humour they reach some kind of lightness.
I give them a playground and they begin to play.
They don’t know what they have to expect.
Naive and unbiased playfulness ‘twill unsettle often.'
