31 years of sixpackfilm - Oktoskop-Special n°3: Forest of Echoes
3rd part of the TV special in OKTOSKOP: Forest of Echoes by Luz Olivares Capelle on October 24, 2021, 20.00h || OKTO-TV.
A young woman runs through the forest - in a race, it seems, with two young men. Lustfully jubilant running, long hair, red dress, Jules et Jim. But suddenly everything is different. The men have disappeared, leaving a damsel in distress. The film leads us onto the trail of horror: the young woman discovers three children's corpses on the riverbank. But with a hard cut, everything changes again: tableaux vivants of three nymphs - not dead at all, but very much alive and full of macabre, mystical and comical ideas. Luz Olivares Capelle received the Diagonale Short Film Award in 2016 for her extraordinary film Wald der Echos (Forest of Echoes) and is a guest in Lukas Maurer's studio.
