How it feels

This film-installation uses footage from Vietnam in two looping sequences. It shifts between a sense of being chased and a possibility of contact, exploring feelings of strangeness, guilt, and the roles of observer and observed.

What happens

Vietnam Hello Bye Bye Ok er en film instrueret af Erik Pauser, Cecilia E. Parsberg. Materialet til installationen er indspillet i Vietnam. En videosløjfe med to sekvenser danner en suggestiv og rytmisk enhed, som skifter mellem følelsen af at være jaget og at have mulighed for kontakt. Installationen kredser om emner som fremmedhed og skyld, om at være betragter eller betragtet, om at kunne mødes eller ej. Alt udspiller sig med Vietnam som baggrund, et land som er os ubekendt og velkendt. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
