Short SynopsisThe 8 years old Matilda's memories of her family as surrealistic visions come into view: the circus member ex-mermaid grandmother, the erotically overheated mother and the disappeared father whose broken heart, anger and jealousy manifest as a rhino. The acts of present and the past are in constant metamorphoses and transformation. The characters overstep their own and the surrounding world's physical borders. Matilda's life is full of grotesque, bizarre characters hungry for love. The atmosphere of wistfulness, desire, passion and sorrow frame the story.Director statementMatilda sits in the window daylong, snooping around street life. One thing comes to her mind after another, so in the associative string, the consecutive pictures come together in fabulous short episodes. We get an insight into the past: how a passionate love-affair of the Mother breaks down the circus and the father's self-respect. In the present, we see the woman who runs a hostel thinking she is Marilyn Monroe and flirts all day long with every male. The Fishwife's husband mostly reads the news and enjoys the Hostel Woman's joshing towards him from afar. Hungry for love, the fishwife stuffs the fishes. The Grandmother is glued to romantic TV channels and buries herself in the glimmering past. All momentum interact with each other, set in a logical range; one action triggers the other, or sometimes even detains the meeting of the characters. The story builds up from pieces of mosaics as Matilda's fantasy world mingles with reality. The chosen frame-by-frame digital drawn animation technique is appropriate for the imagery of smooth motion, metamorphoses and original subjective point of views. 15 minutes.
