BIRDS BARK

by Caroline PELLET
2016 / HD / color / sound / 1S / 18' 22

Birds bark is inhabited by dogs, cats, beetles, ants, parrots, humans, snails, chickadees, verms. These beings appear as shadows, stains, abstract forms, projections, in a kind of ventriloquist image. They imitate, hunt, love each other and engage with, hide from and play with each other. The one making noises is not who you think it is; dialogues punctuate these noises, from the man imitating birds in front of an hilarious assembled, to this girl asking questions about prehistorical dragonflies.
The film is crossed by duplication and imitation through the choice of "indirect" images and the "noisist" sound, forming a strange bestiary which human is a part of.
