La Sosta - 8’00, Sound, Colour, Italy 2010
In the video film "La Sosta" one sees flocks of birds circling over Rome in the evening sky. The bell of a Buddhist temple in Taipei tolls the rhythm of passing hours. In this ballet of spinning birds, the starlings' yearly return to the South converges with Buddha's teaching of the neverending cycle of life and rebirth. Time and space, nearness and distance, nature and rituals that have survived over the centuries become interchangeable.
