DRIFTING CITIES
Luminous Void Experimental Film Festival | Michael Higgins, 2017
Michael Higgins’ eerie and meditative Drifting Cities shows two actors playing two lovers before meeting death in a car crash. They drift through muddled memories and moments in search of one another. Italian journal CinePensieri calls the film “evanescent in the widest meaning of the term… Is it the cinema that turns into the world or vice versa? In both cases, in Drifting Cities the two elements fuse together to such an extent that it’s difficult to recognise the border between the reality and the medium that represents it
