Spider's Blanket

Spider’s Blanket captures the liminal space of consciousness, dreams, and immersion.

The film is a careful meditation on routine chores and the trance of fetching water at dawn. Through the experiences of two sisters, we learn to recognize the water as a marker for time, dreams, the body, and recollection.
