Twice Over

Synopsis

The sequencing of colour and sound for Twice Over followed a pattern based on progressions across the scale of colours and tones. An element of chance was introduced by re-filming a second variation, overlaying it with the first sequence. In the gap between layers, aleatory colours and tone combinations arise.

All These Summers All These Summers

Director: Therese Henningsen

Year: 2025

Driven by a recurring urge to encounter strangers with her camera, the filmmaker begins to film her solitary Greek Cypriot neighbour Pete in the tower block in London where they both live. Around the same time, her father in Denmark receives a cancer diagnosis requiring her to spend more time with him. As her father gradually slips back into the depression that made him absent when she was a teenager, she feels a need to document this transition. Her compulsion to enter into Pete’s life and to film him echoes with her desire for understanding her father’s experience of isolation and loneliness, as well as her own relationship to it. ALL THESE SUMMERS asks questions about responsibility in life and in film whilst intimately confronting the complexities of the daughter-father and filmmaker-subject relationship.
