présenté dans le cadre de l'exposition Panorama 25

Film


Touched by the grace of speech, two dogs philosophise in the trunk of a car parked on a hospital forecourt at night. Together, they paint a bleak picture of a humanity prone to great calamity, crumbling our all-too-human certainties in the process.

Freely adapted from the eponymous short story by Cervantes The Dialogue of the Dogs, written in 1613.

Norman Nedellec


Born in 1994, Norman Nedellec is an artist and filmmaker. His work is situated on the cusp of visual arts and cinema, where his peasant origins lie dormant as a starting point. Through this particular dialogue with the non-human, his productions are based on the construction of a landscape that is at once documentary, intimate tale and fable. He has shown his films and videos and exhibited his work at Vidéodrome2, Centre d'Art du Creux de l'Enfer, Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, Vidéochroniques, etc.
