GHOST OF ICARUS

A short experimental film inspired by the City Symphony genre and the Soviet Montage movement.
The film is part of my graduation research project on how to apply dialectics in the montage of a film. The accompanying thesis (in Dutch) can be downloaded here.
Made with support of the KF Hein Fund.


'The jury was astounded by the virtually magical Ghost of Icarus. Inspired by the famous myth, this film impressed both visually and auditory. (...) it shows its authenticity throughout.' Jury verdict Dioraphte award at Go Short International Film Festival.
