Puppets, Video and Synthesizers, 6min., Portugal
Directed by Leonel Vieira Coelho
Puppets, Video and Synthesizers is a surreal meditation on mimicry, media ritual, and recursive identity. Set in a hyper-stylized, dollhouse-like world of glistening surfaces and analog devices, the film loops through layers of screen-bound selves, where puppets watch puppets watching television. With ritualistic mantras, flickering broadcasts, and an eerie stillness pierced by absurdity, the film becomes both stage and screen, performance and playback.
