The Woodland Threshold

Giulia Grossmann / France, Laos / 2024 / World Premiere / 18 min.


synopsis

Dao comes from Laos, but she has been living in France for many years. Set mostly in the Laotian jungle, the film is a dream and an idea of her return to her own essence. In the meditative rhythm of a slow human stride, we dive into a woman's memories of home, rituals and the family she had to leave behind.
