We are outside. It is night. In the darkness, we see a woman running. We hear the wind, distant traffic and her heavy breathing. She is staggering. She is bleeding from her nose and mouth. Something has happened, something brutal and violent. She is no longer young. She places herself in relation to time. She takes her place in it. There is a before and an after, of which nothing is told. The video is monotonous, repetitive. From what is she running? What is she leaving behind? The location is Spreewald Park in Berlin at night. It's shot from the back of a car where my focus is on the driver instructing him on the speed level. The actress follows the car, she's not to fall out of the frame. I focus on acting as a process, and on the moment where acting and fiction turn into reality.
