The S.Y. A

super 8 color/ b&w
2'29" 2022

The confiscated oligarch yacht “the a” has mutated into a ghost ship. she is lying at anchor, fluctuating in circles vaguely and uncertainly, raising questions. Are we the shipwrecked ones?  Cut.

Blurred vegetation produces blurred fauna. An amphibian emerges, begins to move. It’s a toad that takes off and disappears around the corner. The camera searches for it in vain in its habitat, gets caught in the foliage and simulates the exit, crawling. Somewhat surprisingly another boat comes into play, a canoe parked in the green. The ivy has already taken hold of it, it was only a dream again.

The epilogue in black and white could substantiate that. Repeatedly, first the yacht then the toad.
at the end there remains a mighty encircled stone, confirming associations with amphibians.
