And Everyone Was There
Eryn Tempest, Lara Oundjian
Shot in a Victorian house on coast, this celebration of dance investigates the surreal character of dreams and the capricious nature of memory. The film’s nonlinear narrative follows the relationship between two women through their childhood home. Immersed in an enigmatic universe, superimposing reality and fantasy, the women explore a space rich with meaning that serves as a backdrop for their intertwined histories. The film’s powerful visuals and outstanding choreography invite viewers to reflect on their own memories.
