Joan the Woman – With Voice

Joan the Woman - With Voice

Aura Satz | UK | 2013 | 0' | | IFFR 2014

Satz is interested in the impact of women on technology, particularly in relation to early cinema. Hand-tinting was typically a woman’s job. The images of Joan’s death are also a memento of the fleeting existence of traditional film. The soundtrack by Maja Ratke adds a more personal dimension to the motif. See also Doorway for Natalie Kalmus in compilation programme Epilogues in Regained.
