HEIS : Chroniques

Struggling to succeed as an artist, 25-year-old Pia, played by director Anaïs Volpé, returns to her mother's home. She aims for a fresh start but her twin brother doesn't support her vision. Volpé voices the concerns of the millennial generation: finding independence. Here, the sincerity and form stand out, as Volpé mashes up footage from formats such as home videos and mobile phones, to deliver a DIY hybrid that is part fiction, part diary, part slam (Volpé's voice-over is rhythmic and musical).
