Slow Motion
16 min.

A poetic meditation on perception and memory, where small everyday gestures reveal what it means to exist and to be seen.
Slow Motions unfolds as an experimental sonata. A guiding voice weaves together three fragmentary stories: a sun mistaken for something else, the intimate loss of a tooth, and the fleeting smile of a neighbor taking out the garbage. Rhythm and sound dictate the progression, inviting the audience to feel before understanding. With echoes of both personal memory and universal fragility, the film creates a state of suspended time, where the pulse of music sustains what image alone cannot hold.
Director’s Statement
I think of cinema as a way to slow down perception, to see how meaning emerges in the intervals between things. For me, filmmaking is not about explanation, but about opening spaces where the ordinary suddenly shimmers with uncertainty.
