Phantoms of a Libertine(2012)
Set in a deserted, silent at, laden with mementoes and artefacts belonging to a now departed inhabitant. The film pieces together an elusive biography of a traveller to far flung destinations. There is a heavy stillness in the deserted space, the inhabitants faded memories are retraced by Rivers, but remain inescapably unresolved; narratives flicker and then disperse in succession; the immateriality of life is reflected in the material left behind.

"While film always seems to aim for humanism and anthropomorphism, I endeavoured in my film to represent only a language with three dimensional letters." Saga is an extension of the plurality of the means of experimentation used by Jean-François Bory to capture the dynamic inside the text, directly related to the spatialisation of letters theorised by Pierre Garnier. lts corresponding object book masterfully resumes the cinematographic dimension in the progression of the writing and uses a visual narration.
