“Film Book Film” is a transmedial artwork that develops from the translation of a film into a children’s book to then pick up the discarded book and translate it back into a film again. Accompanied by an original sound composition that reinterprets the original film score in relation with the grainy images in the book, the piece comes full circle. “Film Book Film” draws itself in the tradition of experimental cinema of dematerializing the image – here intricately done via the sound - at the same time as it lifts the book up to get us closer to the images proving their physicality but pushing them away, all along the lines and tricks of narrative cinema. Alternating between objective and subjective shots we are both readers and spectators; a new experience evolves with punctuations of humor.
