The "bleared eyes of blue glass" in the title of this experimental short expand on a verbal image from Virginia Woolf's novel The Waves, considered the most experimental among the 20th-century British writer's literary works, from which the young filmmaker took inspiration for his film, borrowing passages and visions to explain his own understanding of what cinema is. A film that plays with water - precisely - and light, and yet in a very dark b&w lit up by rare flashes of colour, making a journey in the night in which the shadow of a man gradually acquires substance.

An experimental media installation of three windows exploring fragments of liminality. Three unique re-constructions of experiential instances volumising the cataclysms of thresholds. Experience the absence of definition, the absence of boundaries set and the absence of rationale. A myth is not to be understood, a myth is passed on, like a game of Chinese whispers, it takes its course and ages with time, suiting the demography and tale, it warps and distorts
A oneiric dark comedy parable following a deranged individual through their efforts in esotericism to convert every living human being into skeletal apparitions without them noticing.
In a waiting room in the space between the living and the beyond, an unlikely pair sits impatiently for their final reckoning.
Within a dense and mysterious forest two figures emerge, ADAM, urgently searching for something, and ELLE, desperately pursuing him.

The power of forest forces these individuals to confront their fears and find some kind of unity through coming together with a childish game.
