Gillian Holt

A Fate Amenable to Change

Shot entirely on location in Poland this is the first project from the collaboration between Gillian Holt (England/Germany) and Katja Koponen (Finland) with music by international film sound award winning Mark Eden.

In this film parallel realities, space and non space, time and non time, recursivity, loss, and discovery are explored through the experiences of a young woman stranded in time and in space. Her journey is a dialogue with the beauty which is found in the unplanned, uncontrolled and the unforeseen.

Single Screen looped DVD on monitor, approx 12mins.
