Newborn

Original title Newborn

One of the more persistent questions small children ask their parents is “Where do babies come from?” The question is as much concerned with the fundamental truth about the beginning of life as it is in relating to the materiality of new-borns. “Newborn” is a short film about material culture and endeavours to answer the question by inviting the viewer to the home of the London based artist Keri for an unusual and uncanny exploration of her craft. In its non-didactic and observational style the film seeks to engage and provide the viewer with a sensory and imaginary experience.
