My Head on the Mountain

This film with its exceptional cinematography creates a visible tension between nature and human. Performance Artist Agnes Btffn lives and works by a fjord in Norway. Both her body and the fjord’s mountains are old. The mountain is visibly strong; the tender, aged body is vulnerable - yet, either is fleeting. Agnes’ performances shock- but they also bring us an experience of flesh within the landscape. They immerse us into a temporality which is entirely new, unexpected, and immensely powerful. Agnes contrasts the gray of the mountain with the purple of her garment and asks us to look behind the grille to truly connect with the universe.
