Synopsis: “Stretching” is a peculiar display of urban gymnastics. An eccentric character concocts crazy, rhythmic exercises along the streets of Manhattan. The surrounding architecture mingles with his playful dance, joining in his merriment.
Director: François Vogel
François Vogel’s crazy audiovisual inventions come from the experiments he has conducted with cameras and from his work in digital arts. He manipulates images and concepts, by twisting them like clay ("Cuisine”, “Tournis”, “Trois petits chats"), or by fragmenting them like crystal ("Rue Francis”, “Faux plafond”, “Les Crabes").
