SIDEVIEW, 2021, psychedelic short 

Director Tosh Leykum 

Germany, 10 min 

The actress Kaori Matsuo enter into different dream worlds. It is a journey into her own interior. No straightforward view, it is a side glance unexplainable, irritating, psychedelic worlds in which dreams mingle. In between, Kaori awakens and is visibly confused. A dove always appears in her dreams. It reveals openly what Kaori connects with the pigeon. It could indicate a childhood experience with a desire to fly. In the end, she travels to space as a pilot of a cogeneration plant. A dream from which she awakens happily. Music is elemental in the movie.
