THE SUGARBOWL
Dir: Didier Canaux / 12’43 / France / 2007 / colour (live action / fiction)
We follow an old bum in an urban setting while he picks up objects that
we believe are useless. But appearances are deceiving... This grumpy
old man reveals himself to be a magician. He invents a world of sound
in order to illuminate the night of a little girl. In the second life of the
sugar bowl, humans and objects are not what we think they are.
