And The Moon Stands Still

Yulia RUDITSKAYA

Belarus, Germany, USA2017 11min Korean Premiere

Synopsis

The presence of the moon affects all under its glow. The film explores the lunar cycle and the energies invoked by its radiance. This based on the tale 『The Witcher』 by russian writer Aleksey Tolstoy.

Program Note

It is only the moon and the stars that has its colors in this achromatic world, and the lights those people lighted up. And there’s a loner troll in the woods. He pushes down the stars in the sky only because of his own curiosity. The troll now aims for the big shiny moon. Yulia Ruditskaya unfolds the great Tolstoy’s original fable to us with her own drawing style. And she leads the audience quietly, as if it is a wordless picture book. (NAH Ho-won)
