THE THINGS WE KEEP (2010)

short film produced by christian svanes kolding in USA.
1 minute 57 secs.

inspired by the opening credits of TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, the film is also informed by ideas such as scientific classification, taxonomy, augmented reality and live-tagging of objects.

the result is a visual survey of a limited number of objects that one keeps from a life in which travel is frequent; gifts, found objects, thrift store purchases, books: souvenirs from a particular time and place. the things that we keep become the constants, objects invested with extra meaning during times of transitions and frequent departures.

this is a stop motion piece made entirely from still images.

best viewed in HD, FULL SCREEN FORMAT.
 
music: broadcast "corporeal"
