Stages of Mourning
Sarah Pucill, 2003, UK, 16mm, 19'
I ritualise through a performance to camera the coming to terms with the loss of my partner, Sandra Lahire. A journey of mourning incorporates this staging both for myself and for the camera / audience. The film explores the relationship between the hallucinatory power of the phantom of memory with that of the phantom ingrained in the photograph, film or video. (Sarah Pucill)
