Brief synopsis

The Poetry Film is based on the poem „Elephant“ by Sina Seiler and visualizing inner rooms, what the poem is expressing by words metaphorically. “Elephant" expresses an inner transformation of the protagonist caused by the encounter of love. The self as a house, every room representing feelings and moods of subconsciousness.The protagonist is dancing through inner rooms, illustrating sequences of dream, expressing feelings and moods.
