Synopsis

« J’ai filmé la maison de ma mère et son jardin. L’ombre joue un rôle essentiel dans le mélange de solitude et de paix qui existe là. Les saisons bougent du jardin jusqu’à la maison, projetant de riches diagonales tôt le matin ou tard dans l’après-midi. Chaque ombre est un équilibre subtil d’immobilité et de mouvement et montre l’instabilité vitale de l’espace. Sa qualité intrinsèque ouvre un passage vers le subjectif. Une voix dans le film parle de la mémoire. Les murs sont des écrans à travers lesquels je passe dans l’intimité habitée. On fait l’expérience d’un lieu depuis la perspective d’où nous venons et entendons la voix d’un autre à travers notre propre acoustique. Le sens du lieu n’est jamais séparé du moment. » Robert Beavers

“I have filmed my mother’s house and her garden. The shadows play an essential part in the mixture of loneliness and peace that exists here. The seasons move from the garden into the house, projecting rich diagonals in the early morning or late afternoon. Each shadow is a subtle balance of stillness and movement and shows the vital instability of space. Its special quality opens a passage to the subjective. A voice within the film speaks to memory. The walls are screens through which I pass to the inhabited privacy. We experience a place through the perspective of where we come from and hear another’s voice through our own acoustic. The sense of place is never separate 
from the moment.” Robert Beavers.
