Milena Desse

"The Sun and the Looking Glass – for one easily forgets but the tree remembers": the beautiful title gives a hint that Milena Desse’s latest film is both, poetic and political. Shot in a Palestinian village, it explores the meaning of place and history, reflecting on and working with the light of the sun. The talk with her follows these topics as well as their eminent relation to the technological means she chose as a filmmaker. For those who wish to dive deeper into the film and its language, you will find a trailer here: milenadesse.wixsite.com/works/the-sun-and-the-looking-glass
