Scrusciu

 

 

DV 13 min. 2004

Scrusciu is an experimental documentary and a play of image and sound reminiscent of the American Avant-Garde structural films. It observes the relationship between the filmmaker and his mother during a medical crisis. The filmmaker visually dissects his mothers space (her home) and audibly connects the deconstructed noise of a clamorous refrigerator to the segmented visual rhythms of his mothers house. The video is in the Sicilian dialect with English subtitles.
