Karen Eng

A response to Virginia Woolf's "Orlando" re-created into a new fairytale encompassing the ideas of the novel mixed with personal experience, traditional folk stories, and snippets from art and literature.

Follows the central character from infant innocence to an ageless teenage persona, we witness the tussle between a 'family' descending into delirium as the special relationship between an aunt and her teenage nephew is upset by the arrival of two mysterious guests. Spanning four mealtimes, the film dips in and out of horror clichés, whilst exploring gender roles, wildlife, cooperation and individual expression.
