Synopsis
A poetic crossover in a ruined world where each person survives alone amid collective disarray. Bodies in motion, dance and physical prowess, replace words, embodying and revealing bruised characters haunted by a past that feels sweeter than this crumbling world.
A word from Tënk
UWD is a short film by director Myriam Verreault and multidisciplinary artist Brigitte Poupart, part of the transdisciplinary project UNTIL WE DIE, produced by Transthéâtre.
Striking and poetic images unfold: an old man with his fishing rod, a boy alone in a small boat, a drowned man caught in a tangle of jewelry. References to water are omnipresent, creating a haunting atmosphere. These images instill a sense of unease, amplified by the sound of falling drops, the explosion of an imaginary pink fruit in the mouths of young women, and the agitated waters of a dark lake.
Until the fourteenth minute, the film unfolds without dialogue or melody. Then, music emerges, drawing the various characters into a frenzy that leads them to exhaustion.
