Sappho

Country: United States, 7 mins

  • Director: Barbara Hammer

CGiii Comment

Through the verses of the 6th century BC Greek poet, a group of women on a beach evoke the ghost of a lesbian deity. Through superimpositions and optical games, Barbara Hammer builds an erotic-literary ritual as if the image imprinted on film were itself part of the process, reaffirming, through an enigmatic soundtrack and various visual labyrinths made up of tangles of bodies and hands, the sacredness of the claim and the solemnity of a body in search of its self-determination. By shattering the boundaries of the image and continually rewriting them, Sappho recomposes a single body, thus evoking the desire for a spirit of sharing.


There was a trailer...but, it has since disappeared.
