Screenplay /
Scenario, 2015
As part of a two-day writing workshop, students of the Ecole des beaux-arts in Le Mans were given a black and white photograph, with a small pretence of apposite pairing (‘This one is for you.’). The photographs, with one exception, are postcards, intended to be posted to another, bearing the open dual message of image and text. It was suggested that these postcards, assumed to have reached their destination, should be the starting point for a film script for an imagined or remembered film, to be considered as a film still. Each is a fragment, which provoked a short text, and each short text is collected here. Sometimes translation fails, and the writer returns to her/his language. At times the writer slips between tongues, between words, or there is an odd inflection. Each image disappears in or under language, as attention fails or digresses. The editor has had a light hand. The original images (which are not at all original) are not present. Following Deleuze, the image is not confined to the visible, but encompasses an amalgam of affects, knowledge, and feelings. Detours are taken, producing new narratives or resistance to narrative.
