Synopsis:
The camera draws near to a white curtain pauses and caresses its translucent texture while performing a dance accompanied by oriental music. The curtain is half open, letting a ray of light sift through but the spectator will never see what it conceals. This first scene is a perfect illustration of the enigmatic and irresolute atmosphere created by Michael Pilz. The film depicts the lacunal traces of a voyage while avoiding all narrative patterns. In a jungle, two dogs are watching something off–camera visibly captivated by an event that remains unseen by the spectator who only hears a dull repetitive sound. After a while one of the dogs approaches a pond that he examines attentively waiting. Finally, he plunges into the water and appeared to search something in it. The object of his quest will never be revealed. The human action depicted in the film contains a similar mystery: a group of tourists stop on the verge of a dusty road unpacking their cameras. Looking straight ahead they watch out for something in distance that will never happen. In this fashion we witness a stream of minimal riddles in which an image is being composed: instead of being set its meaning is left open. At first lacking the usual bearings that enable him to comprehend a story the spectator feels disoriented. However, he rapidly becomes mesmerized by these shots that revel the fleetingness of a moment. By capturing non–events - Windows, Dogs And Horses invites us to access the absolute instant of the detail.
