A whisper, a voice, a spoken word. Hypnosis as a technology of communication became a starting point for an experiment in aesthetic experience. Material from cinematic depictions of Dracula and the rendering of contextual aspects are intertwined in a blurry ambiguity. On the borderline between trance and sleep, the film dives into a moral contemplation: how different characters might hold differing points of view on ethical concerns of power—how individual accounts may obscure an objective truth.
Collaborative work by Stefania Smolkina & Dunk Murphy as part of the Embassy of Ireland in Berlin Creative Pathways programme in partnership with the Goethe Institute, Ireland
