The Capsule (2012)
(Kapsuła)
Country: GR
Technical: col 35m
Director: Athina Rachel Tsangari
Cast: Ariane Labed, Clémence Poésy, Isolda Dychauk
Synopsis:
Six women hatch into life on an Aegean island, and are taught in all manner of mundane skills, from walking goats to dancing in banded erotic lingerie, before their four-day life cycle is complete.
Review:
There is an oblique reference to the six-headed Hydra, and each girl speaks a different language if that is any help, but this surreal Sapphic fantasy is wilfully gnomic in its formalistic elements, including ultra-slow motion and mixed medium animation.
