By The Throat

작품 설명

Starting with what seems to be a trivial security check procedure at the entrance to the Tel Aviv airport, By The Throat explores the deeply engraved border that marks our oral cavity and defines the sounds and words we can pronounce. We carry within us these limits, created by our mother tongue, becoming ourselves a mobile checkpoint, wherever we are. Combining filmed testimonies, found footage, YouTube clips, and medical imagery, the film moves through sonic, anatomical and political territories, and explores how language and pronunciation are used to define, categorise and control, questioning our desire for identification and categorisation. With support by Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg.
