Mallorca [maˈʎorka])[2] is the largest island in the Balearic Islands archipelago, which are part of Spain and located in the Mediterranean Sea.
And from the middle of all that arrives a film with creatures, temptation, water, concrete, sand, searching, and singing! The director sent some comments and some behind the scenes photos. The director said that she’s:
… interested in the power of metaphor in the visual arts, thus the mouthless meets the eyeless. How do they communicate?
How does the ignorant and the powerless become the conscious and the active participant. blabla if you want to get into the mind wanking aspect.
Locations for this film include the beaches of Es Trenc, and a mixture of old and new structures in the city of Palma. The big round wheel-like sculptures they filmed in were by Catalan artist Josep Guinovart, dated 1986 and are supposed to represent windmills! Each piece can be seen here.
It took a lot of convincing the french teenagers to get weird…
When asked how the eyes and mouths disappeared in the film, Sisyphus’s twin sister said “I wanted to do silicone but we were rushed and it took too damn long so we just used adhesive stretchy bandages and coverup.”
People in Spain are so used to weird foreigners that not a single person stopped to watch the shoot.
We hope you enjoy today’s film experience, and may your communication impossibilities make a wonderful family.
