Demi-Pas is a short film and
is projected using a 'reversed camera' technique. A projector has
been converted to house micro-mechanisms that produce animated images
using a principle similar to that of cinematography. Demi-Pas
thus finds its own narrative methods, its own action and images,
like a kind of projected theater. Real objects and photographic
material are transposed within the projector. Based on this experimental
form of projection, the film narrates a tale that has an extremely
simple storyline: one man's daily routine. Demi-Pas is a
short film that constructs an everyday reality, thus highlighting
simultaneously both the simplicity and the complexity of this reality.
