In a gloomy landscape, where shadows and reflections create ambiguities and anxieties, some animals wait patiently for their opportunity to capture their preys. With an immersive and hypnotic sound environment, composed by Abi Fry with an Aeolian harp, an instrument that generates sound only by the wind, “The Loom” is a disturbing work that will patiently involve the spectator also in its web, like if it wanted to capture and devour him. The British filmmaker Toby Tatum, in an absolute debut at Curtas Vila do Conde, continues to explore the natural landscapes and the presence of animal figures, with no apparent human mediation. (PC)
