Synopsis

Ex Stasis is a short film based on the recount from an unknown source of a traumatic memory told through fragmented image and text. The film is framed within the confines of a domestic interior, revealed through motion, progressive frames and broken text to tell this dark narrative of an external threat that invades the home of a couple and their cats.

The story is constructed in monochromatic and colour images, producing a foreboding domestic interior of disaccord, frightened cats and human panic.
