It's almost 4pm. She needs a drink as she just got off work. However the store will be closing soon. This she realizes as she gazes out the window. Eventually becoming into the snowstorm - another road block in her futile hope for more alcohol.
Trying to make the drink last longer, she attempts to add egg. The egg breaks and the shell ruins the drink. Time and time again she tries, but one egg after another is wasted.
she can't have babies. many people feel they can be immortal in some way by leaving descendants behind. so in the case of our story the woman feels like her time is ticking away bringing nothing but death.
Wer svið, hákarl, kæst skata, selshreyfar oder súrsaðir hrútspungar isst, darf auch diesen Wein trinken, aber Deutschland hat auch Besseren zu bieten ; )
Nimm doch mal Eric mit und film ihn beim Essen *superdiabolischeslachen*
Because the title was 'Time', I thought that maybe the eggs meant birth, and so was like 'aww' when you held the egg up to yourself - 'she saved that one!'. This, I think, made it more shock-worthy to see it crushed into the sink. xD Lovely video though. <3 Very atmospheric.
interesting an Icelandic woman living in Germany making Swedish cinema. i have an urge to watch a farmer play chess with death now for some reason. odd
@makewon99 Heheh.. I'm not really familiar with Swedish cinema, (Except maybe Lilja 4-ever and Fucking Åmål, but I don't think that's what you're referring to) Can you recommend something in the Swedish cinema genre to me?
@Dinzla to me the perfect example of Swedish cinema is The Seventh Seal (1957) directed by Ingmar Bergman with Max von Sydow let me know what you think
Very good video, dissecting time and all - but I'm concerned because you disappeared for four months and then came back wielding some very heavy themes. I hope everything is okay.
Are you okay Ally? The atmosphere, although very well done, isn't exactly bright and cheerfull.. The crushed eggs, the feeling of "cooped upness", the wine and the crushed eggs in the wine, made me think you've been going through a rough time.
I hope i'm wrong, and that you're pulling our legs. I'm a man, and if there were suttle hints of something like that, they're pretty much wasted on me:-p
@jo05dk I am. This video was filmed over a year ago in Iceland during difficult times. I never got around to finish editing it, it was too hard. I'm glad I finally did though, it's been haunting me.
For the first half, I expected you to break out into a Buffy-esque musical number, but you've already done that. The hand reminds me of the opening sequence from The Tomorrow People.
I choose not to interpret. It is what it is. I believe Jonathan Livingston Seagull was a story about a bird. I did, however, really really like it. You do have some mad skillz my dear. (^_^)
PS - An Australian would have removed the wine bladder to get the last bit out...
I have a habit of falling in love with Icelandic women. Who doesn't?
