Shadow Life

Shadow Life

2011 • 10 min • China
Shadow Life, evokes folklore and communist festivals. The vignettes are performed by shadow puppets; the form of the hand is a synecdoche for the manual labor of workers and peasants, while the silhouette medium allows quick metamorphoses of a grandstanding dictator to a barking dog, a swaying tree to a crane transforming the landscape. A remake of a 2000 Russian pop hit serves as the sound track to the third part, Transmigration—a farcical rejoinder to Mao’s cover of Marxism-Leninism.

This entry for the London Sci-Fi 48 Hour Film Challenge is fantastic for its location, costuming and cinematography alone, but the nearly naked blind chick with the power to make people spout poetry with a touch of her fingertips to the temple is a confusing and intriguing figure that shoves it right over the top. And what does she want with that baby?
