The Whole Night
Directed by Alejo Franzetti
On a Monday morning in Berlin, Rachelle is driving home. Issaka, far away in Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso, writes her a message. Rachelle replies with one of her special messages, a reminder of the long night. Her nocturnal journey took her through Tiergarten. Surrounded by darkness, places seem smaller, almost unreal. A cinematic nocturne that appropriates space through language.
