“My life is a house on the edge of the desert. Inside it I am sheltered and imprisoned.” In starkly contrasted black-and- white shots, Peter Schreiner plumbs the depths of the psyche. The camera sweeps over sand dunes and into the interior of a house lost in their midst. Adrift in thought, people within are on a search for security. It is the fata morgana that makes abstractions intelligible, metaphors imaginable. Cinema as a place for dreamlike self-reflection.
