Liebesträume

1997

7min

A paper boy is invited in for a glass of milk by an elderly man. An alluring young woman enters the room. The paper boy leaves the room to take a shower... This early short by New Zealand film director Florian Habicht was shot on a windup Bolex 16mm camera. Dialogue and sound were recorded and added later, enhancing the surreal tone of this tale of quirky suburban desire. Habicht rejects traditional narrative in favour of juxtaposition and dark humour.
