BARRIA — Postcards From Last Summer

Postcards From Last Summer

16min/Color, B&W/Digital & 16mm/USA/2019

Logline:

During a summer go-away trip, two twenty-something girls
face a daydreaming self-discovery journey between carefree
days and the sorrow of a world of misconceptions.

Synopsis:

Emma and Lola are in their early twenties and already know
one or two things about broken hearts, and unbearable expectations. During a summer holiday, what it's a simple
escape to the tropical wilderness of the Everglades to forgive
and forget, turns into a self-discovery journey, with carefree fantasies, childish games, and a quirky rebellion against
roles and rules.

Postcards From Last Summer, is a hypertextual coming-of-age film-essay. An evocative snapshot about the need to find your true self build upon reflexive notes, off-screen narration, and popish tableaux vivants.

Film Score:

The original music score was composed by Berlin-based composer, musician, and performer Ella Zwietnig –a member
of Free The Work, and the Alliance for Women Film Composers– and her partner Florian Zwietnig, a prolific composer, sound designer, producer, and past member of the german band
Mediengruppe Telekommander.

Inspired by a colorful spectrum of influences varying from late '70s Suicide, Kraut Rock, Gabriel Yared, and Eric Serra, they created dreamy, ethereal and noisy soundscapes to enhance the summerish and evocative spirit of the film using analog and electronic instruments, prepared piano, analog tape, vocals,
and the Oberheim Matrix 1000.
