Persona

Persona centers on Écran Somnambule (2012), a performance by Latifa Laâbissi. This performance draws inspiration from the film "Mary Wigman tanzt" (1930) and incorporates elements from Wigman's earlier work, "Hexentanz" (1926). The film employs a distinct camera movement to capture the physical experience and disruptive power of the masked figure.

This film will appeal to those interested in the intersection of performance and cinema, particularly within the context of experimental filmmaking. The artistic lineage connecting these works showcases the evolution of performance art and its representation in film, making it a noteworthy examination of the form.
