The Oyster Effect
Using as a starting point parts of archive footage shot by De Martino’s team during his first research in Salento, a rural area of South Italy, “The Oyster Effect” develops into a collage of historical references as narrating voices over a visual journey. In the film, the portrayal of women and hysteria is shown as a series of parallels between built environments, architectural spaces, landscape and their narration. The viewer travels through foreign languages and non-descriptive locations, in a journey that challenges linearity and historicism.
