Magma
Berlin, 2022 - 2023, 14’ / 12’ / 15’ / 35’In the film couples and peer groups try to find their way in everyday situations: they perform, reveal themselves, make themselves vulnerable, are insecure, fall in love or pretend to the others.
Magma is a method driven and improvisation based film project produced and directed by Julian Rabus.
The shoot consists of long situations that last up to several hours and are filmed with up to four cameras. Actors are given space to behave without dramatic functions. Following intuitions opens a way to engage with certain psychological patterns and find narrative structures, which then manifest themselves in the editing and the viewer’s perception.
