19th Annual
Louisiana's Reel Festival
Festival starts in
LUMEN / CANADA / LOUISIANA PREMIERE
SHORT EXPERIMENTAL
Lumen (meaning light in Latin) is a sensorial film shot in Super 8 that paints a portrait of an adolescent with albinism. The hypersensitivity that this genetic condition engenders and the lack of pigmentation in her skin and eyes lend her an extraordinary aura. This film echoes a series of photographs entitled Fovea, which takes as its subject visually impaired young people.
