Still Point
Režie: Suki Chan35 mDokumentární, Short
Still Point transports the audience from the site of the humble wooden structures offering refuge along Pilgrims' Way in Northumberland, to contested sacred sites in Jerusalem, and the interior spaces of abandoned Syrian villages in the Golan Heights. The film evokes the tension that marks them as places of refuge and spiritual quest - and as materially contested sites. The shifting of allegiances - changing cultural and religious identities, the resulting layering over time, the visual clues left behind - are physically embodied in the locations Chan chose to film. Barriers and divisions are a recurring motif in Still Point, suggesting the contradictory tenets of organised religion - inclusivity and its often-inevitable corollary - exclusivity. In making Still Point, Suki Chan encountered segregation, the militarisation of sacred spaces and the conflation of utopia with dystopia.
