The Living Trilogy shows mankind potentially heading towards apocalypse, but also that the outcome is in our hands. Songs from the Second Floor throbs with Millennialism, from the scene with the salesman throwing away crucifixes, symbolizing the abandonment of compassion and empathy, to the scene with the moving houses, evoking the panic of cyclical financial crises, themselves minor apocalypses. The themes of collective guilt and human vulnerability were central to that film. You, The Living represented a daring departure into dreams, a transition that opened up an entire realm of new possibilities for me. Before, my characters would comment on their dreams. Now with A Pigeon scenes are simply dream-like, with no further explanation. A PIGEON also teases more than the other two films, and the tone is overwhelmingly that of “Lebenslust” even if the characters are sad and struggle greatly. (it) |
