In the experimental short film THE SECRET GARDEN, female landscapes are depicted, stripped of social norms. The transformative, cyclical nature of the female body is expressed in various ways. The images carry a poetic, symbolic, and ritualistic charge, with many loving, intimate embraces and caresses, where skin and eyes make contact. The film focuses on the inner world of women, expressed through slow actions, long camera movements, and an underlying hypnotic soundscape. It is a sensory experience that explores the female gaze, touching on deep desires for connection, sensuality, and sexuality, all with a mystical undertone.
