To understand electrical wirings(pt)

“To understand electrical wirings" is the recording of two improvisations by Luiz Rocha (clarinet), André Togni (drums), Kino Lopes (percussion), and Mathias Durand (voice, guitar, electronics), taking place completely in the dark, with a single light source coming from a flashlight fixed above the camera, whose curious look is led by Xavier Braun. For the second improvisation, this camera has all its settings misadjusted. In the editing stage, Braun takes advantage of the plasticity provided by the light saturation to distort the image, as well as with histograms that overlap the recording, which totaled 78 minutes. The concert took place at Mica and Barata's house in December 2022. Brasília - DF, Brasil

She questions who her father is while struggling to grasp the concept of pain, both inside and out. Having found an apparent conclusion, Sarah returns to an apologetic Dad, and decides to put his promises to the test.music:Annette Focksproducer:Tobias Rosen, Heike Wiehle-Timmproduction:Relevant Film, Warner Bros Entertainment Germanybacking:Deutscher Filmförderfonds (DFFF) (DE), Schleswig-Holstein Film Commission (DE), Filmförderungsanstalt (FFA)(DE)distributor:Warner Bros Entertainment Germany
