Pandora
19715 min 29 secFilm: Experimental
Direction: Derek May
Production: Tom Daly
Experimental filmmaker and colour cameraman here collaborate in a surrealistic retelling of the old myth. But this is a dream fantasy with no real parallel to Pandora, replete with striking symbols where everything is larger than life--the silhouetted image of a mother and an infant, the profiled view of two sculptured heads spouting smoke and fire. The film is a technical experiment with forceful, colourful effect.
