White Epilepsy
2012 · Movie · 68 min. · France
Deep in the woods, humanity, ancient and archaic, replays the unravelled scenes from a ceremony. hovering between dream and nightmare, the story is woven from fear, sexuality and the animality that constantly simmers beneath our surface. the film’s emotional intensity structures the narrative, a variegated composition of nervous intensity. White epilepsy is experienced as a combination of fear and desire, seen through the prism of the viewer’s own emotional DNA.
