A workshop set by the French/Amercian film-maker Michel Auder (michelauder.com/). The whole workshop consisted of making a video response to the theme "Breakup". I focused on a more conceptual "break-up" rather than a closure between two people. Considering Michel Auder's turbulent background with the art-world , I wanted to do an in-depth interview with him about his views on reality, and even how we tend to break up with it. Based on the interview I created a movie entitled breaking up with reality. All the scenes in the film works like visual metaphors for the subject matter. Runtime: 4 min Credits: Direction: John C.
