                    "Now Eat My Script is a precipice, a fluid solution in which some spectral noises of the self float adrift. Narration takes the role of a pregnant writer who continuously affirms her hunger and clumsiness towards language and history. Her body is crossed over by both the years to come and the stories that have been buried. As a would-be pirate, she navigates through the tumult of familiar waters. A faltering, yet seemingly omniscient text roams among cities, and between memories that cannot find a proper place, or a proper fiction: After Eight chocolates, children’s group showers, a yellow car that resembles a Dodge, or a pigeon rock where men kill themselves become the phantom limbs of the sacrificed visceral body of speech and story telling that surrounds them. Now Eat My Script is about knowing disastrously."

                    The film is a satirical family portrait of sorts explored through
                    image, movement, space and time. Dream-like the film unfolds,
                    revealing fragments of a dark and broken narrative. Set in a tiny
                    cottage that once happened to be a slaughterhouse, the characters pose
                    like masked actors on stage almost performing for the camera. The idea
                    of family takes on a disturbing and eerie tone as the film progresses.

                    Overwhelmed with a deep sense of displacement following his child's
                    death, Michael frequently dreams of being submerged in a dark pool
                    waiting for her return. He relies on opiates for solace from his new
                    existence, however the vision of an angel leads him to believe there
                    may be a way home.

                    Everyday when we wake up we part with a totally different life or
                    even a completely different world. The dreams and the pictures we see
                    every night sometimes are easily to be understood and coherent with
                    our daily living. But sometimes they are so complex that a convincing
                    picture or something understandable can not be made from them. We
                    forget most of it and some aspects remain like an incomplete puzzle in
                    our mind.

                            Eine internationale Jury überschaut das Kurzfilmpanorama aus aller Welt. Das FISDN präferiert Filme, die gesellschaftlich sensible Themen in orgineller Weise thematisieren, Filme, die Ambiguität und Komplexität nicht scheuen, die zuweilen enigmatisch bleiben, so dass die Reflexion über sie nicht abbricht, aussergewohnliche Filme, die alle Fommen künstlerischen Ausdrucks nutzen und offen sind für ästhetische Innovation, kurz Filme, die die irritierende Fremdheit der gegenwätigen Welt im komplexer Weise darstellen.
