A window.
An opposite window facade.
A room.
Flowers.
Luise and a phone call.
An action scene.
A construction site.
A musician.
The room temperature is 21,3°C.
The image of a room, its appearance changing with the shades of light. A window front, seen through the window. Changing flower arrangements on a side table.
Sounds, entering the room from outside the frame. A construction site hints at changes in the exterior. Rehearsals. Are the sound waves of the piano reaching us from downstairs or from next door? In 21.3°C Helena Wittmann reduces the filmic elements to the essentials: light, shadow, sound, direction. Out of this minimum, stories emerge that linger, atmospheres that resonate. Little by little the viewer is thrown back upon herself/himself. Through the facing window front someone seems to look back at us. Only the temperature remains the same.
21,3 °C lanean Helena Wittmann-ek film- elementuak oinarrizkoenera murrizten ditu: argia, itzala, soinua eta norabidea.
