Thread Threat

dir. by Konstantina Sofokleous, Cyprus
runtime: 2 min
Wholly filmed on top of a doll silhouette, an interpretation of the 1810 Grimm handwritten manuscript of 'Snow White'*, concentrating on the cruelty of Snow White's biological mother. TECHNIQUE Thread used like coloured pencils to 'translate' my drawing lines with a new material. Special thanks to the Aardman Academy. *1810 #43. 'Schneeweisschen. Schneewittchen. Unlucky Child'

Directors Statement

My work revolves around childhood, tradition, and rhythm. My interests focus on the interpretation of the children’s literature based on the fear and violence within it, retelling of a story, and the translation of rhythm through the visual language and animation. I often improvise. Old toys and objects are usually a starting point in my work.
