Foundlings

Foundlings was shot near Wexford, in the south-east of Ireland where Orla Baryy grew up. This visual poem without a particular narrative and full of autobiographical elements is set to a rhythm that1s been immensely decelerated. Floating images and deep voices are central to the associative strategy that is at work here. The images allow one to listen to a hypnoticvoicce, meanwhile the eyes are allowed to wanderS to daydreamS to travel over the length of already-reckoned time. The images reflect landscapes, images full of repetitive calm, the kind of calm one finds between wakefuless and falling into sleep. The velocity of the sea determines the rhythm, regular and yet irregular.
