Nocturnal Conversations II: Phosphene

Nocturnal Conversations II: Phosphene (2020)

You are six and a half years old, it is 8:30 pm, the year is 2003 and you have just been put to bed.

Phosphene is the second installment in a series of films titled Nocturnal Conversations. The film was made in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, during the third week of quarantine. I felt far from my family and home, longing to feel small again, listening to my parents talking to the friends they had over for dinner through my bedroom wall. Lying down in darkness, eyelids heavy — flickering lights and colors drifting me into deep sleep.
