Diorama

Future Frames: Ten New Filmmakers To Follow 2016 / Diorama / Germany 2015

Just like when viewing a diorama, this picture blurs the line between reality and its mere imitation. Kolja and Rocio broke up and an attempt to reconstruct their relationship quickly changes into a surreal journey through memories that provoke visions of what might have been.… Fulfilling the desire for true love, however, is harder than it seems.

Diorama Diorama

Synopsis

Kolja and Rocio sit in front of a diorama of the desert – a place they never visited because they broke up before they could make the trip. In this stark landscape they return together to the light and rosy beginnings of their relationship. But they also revisit moments far more reminiscent of nightmare, as mutual recollections transform into surreal visions of what might have been.… Like the effect of a diorama, this striking film also blurs the line between reality and its mere imitation, but the feeling of unfulfilled desire for true love is more than real.
