Sentence

Hugo Glendinning’s and Rosemary Lee’s short film Sentence evokes the ephemerality of dance through the experimental use of animation and slow shutter speed.

Shot in a former court room, breath like ghostly traces of the dancer Lauren Potter's movements blur into and out of the dark wooden panelling.

FIlmed in the isolated strange times of lockdown and set against a haunting sound-score by Isaac Lee-Kronick, Sentence suggests a mysterious yearning for permanence.
