Description:
The film explores the surrealistic journey of Aurélia, a woman who navigates through her daily life while her mind weaves an intricate tapestry of reality and myth. Set to the rhythm of her thoughts, the visuals contract and expand as she dives deeper into her interior landscape, where the lines between dreams and waking life blur. The film takes inspiration from Gérard de Nerval's short story Aurélia (1854), which later influenced Surrealist thinkers like André Breton.In a continuous dance between consciousness and subconsciousness, Aurélia's identity transforms, incorporating various features that her imagination conjures up along the way. This transformation culminates in a frenzied final dance that serves as a rite of exorcism, purging evil and awakening buried primal instincts within each individual. The film challenges traditional notions of time by dissecting real-time experiences into fleeting mental moments, creating a dynamic narrative from the flow of Aurélia's consciousness.In this cinematic exploration of surrealism, viewers are invited to embark on a dreamlike voyage that intertwines reality and myth, offering an immersive experience that questions the very nature of time and identity.
