Friday, May 26

Susana Viegas examines the concept of the “death-image” and the emergence of a new type of characters who have passed through a death and are reborn from it. Drawing on Deleuze’s analysis of Alain Resnais, she explores how films can create depersonalized dream-images that transcend the limits of perception and time.
