CLOW(N)D
Two clowns are waiting for a bus. One is a bit lost and confused, the other in a hurry and impatient. They discover something – is it a billboard? a vending machine? artificial intelligence? or a virtual world …? Driven by curiosity, they are drawn into the screen and actions unfold somewhere between the physical world and the virtual. Meanwhile, their distinct individual personalities create peculiar interactions and mesmerizing musical performances.
Without words but with plenty of technical and physical precission and a contageous clownesque humour, set in a “timeless” retro-futuristic universe, inspired by silent movies.
