Sur le promontoire oublié

"Sur le Promontoire Oublié" ("One the Forgotten Promontory") is a surreal video-art short film set on the desolate promontory of Chichaoua, Morocco. The film explores the themes of duality, isolation, and the unending loop of one's subconscious, an oneiric vision where time and reality blur.
The voice-over appears with two slightly varying versions on each audio channel, creating a sense of a divided self. The voice guides us through an eternal forest, trapped in a perpetual twilight where the boundary between dream and reality fades away. The forest loops endlessly, and escape is impossible, reminiscent of the labyrinth of the subconscious mind.

Amidst the towering pylons and antenna poles on the promontory, a lone figure emerges—a solitary man whose existence mirrors the duality echoed in the film. The character's movements, captured in various perspectives and superimposed with evolving effects, create a visual embodiment of opposing states. He crouches and stands simultaneously, embodying the fragmented self and the elusive nature of identity.

The original music, an integral part of the narrative, weaves evolving sound textures and complex sonorities, enhancing the unreal and dramatic atmosphere, and also providing a temporal structure and pace to the editing.
