Drawing Casablanca

In 900 images Faroqhi sketched the first images of every single take of the film classic "Casablanca". A film that usually is seen as a succession of images during a certain time frame can now be seen as silent images on a wall.
In a stereo-channel setup of two short films in drawings and title cards the path of the two main characters Elsa and Rick throughout the film is being followed.
In her meditative approach Faroqhi tries to look at film in a different manner.

Please also view the "trailer". The film "Drawing Bergman" is part of the stereo-channel-installation".
