Synopsis:

Meshes of the Afternoon: A woman returning home falls asleep and has vivid dreams that may or may not be happening in reality. Through repetitive images and complete mismatching of the objective view of time and space, her dark inner desires play out on-screen.

At Land: Silently, a woman wakes on a beach as the tides go in reverse. Her dreamscape unfolds as she tries to locate a chess piece traveling from the beach to a party to a country road and then back.

Ritual in Transfigured Time: An experiment with editing techniques that distort space and time in order to further contextualize an image.
