WTF Did I just watch

The follow-up to her highly praised film 'Attenberg', The CAPSULE is a hauntingly beautiful Goth-inspired mystery. Filmed on the island of Hydra, Greece, the short is an haute couture-clad coming-of-age fantasy about a matriarchic dominatrix and her female disciples that tells the story of a flock of porcelain-skinned young girls trapped within an 18th century Cycladic mansion and the rituals they perform as a rite of passage to becoming women. Flirting with elements of melodrama, horror and even fetishism, the film explores the essence of female nature, a subject matter that appears to appeal to Tsangari. Ingeniously experimenting with genre film ideas, Tsangari offers an insight into female nature using elegant yet shocking visuals that are rooted in allegorical absurdity. This film remind me of Un chien andalou.

Life cycle inside the capsule

"The Capsule" is a Greek French-language (one line of German) short film from 2012, so this one has its 5th anniversary this year. It was written and directed by Athina Rachel Tsangari and the cast actually includes a handful of actresses that have been in pretty prestigious projects already, such as Poésy, Dychauk or Labed, who also worked with Tsangari on the recent "Before Midnight" movie. Anyway, back to this one here: It runs for 37 minutes and I would call it a fantasy movie, maybe even sci-fi, even if these genres aren't listed here. We follow a bunch of young women living inside a capsule and we find out about the strict rules there, but also about transformations for example. The latter is caused by the use of animation at some occasions, which did not look too convincing though. Overall, you can probably call this one also a modern avant-garde surrealist movie. I did not like most of the old ones that fit the description and same applies to this one here. I don't think the artistic impact here was executed particularly well, which is a bit of a shame as the cast list certainly offered the opportunity for a better outcome. Watch something else instead.
