Make-Up

2011, 20 minutes

Α brief encounter set in the urban landscape of East London

Melanie, a make-up artist in her late twenties, and Alex, a social anthropologist in his late thirties, cross paths one night under the scaffolds. They stroll in the streets for a while, shifting positions in a play of dynamics and eventually find themselves in the confines of a damp living room, where something must happen. Or maybe not. This is a short film about miniature gestures blown up and the silence which precedes a new beginning.
