NEF Animation (nefanimation.fr) and Fontevraud Abbey are celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Fontevraud International Writing Residency for Animated Film in October 2017. A book and DVD set is being released for the occasion, featuring fifteen animated short films written during residencies at Fontevraud Abbey. Fifteen films, fifteen perspectives, fifteen worlds, presented in a video medley lasting a few minutes.

"Sleepincord" raises the issue of dream. Dream is the meeting point of the world of body and mind; it is intangible for us and hard to examine thoroughly. It happens inside but, at the same time, outside of us and, therefore, gives rise to anxiety.

The first and—paradoxically—the final part of the triptych. The city, which is its subject, grows not only in space but, most importantly, in time. With all consequences.

A man and a woman meet in a waiting room and immediately get close to each other. They commence a game that gradually gets more and more ferocious. Their faces resemble masks while shapes slowly lose their integrity. Bodies are formed like clay, embracing each other up to the limits of impossibility. III is a portrait of a woman in an exhausting relationship with a man, which allures and repulses at the same time. The film is the third part of the triptych Impossible Figures and other stories.

Somewhere, no one knows where, all the apples have fallen and everything is immersed in sleep. In a small apartment, a mother sleeps with her child in an armchair. And when reason sleeps.

The film portrays a story of a woman, who keeps on stumbling and falling in her daily rush.
