Rituals We Wish We Had is a short film I made in collaboration with Douwe Dijkstra. It is derived from our project Originals that started out as a live performance before turning into a video installation and finally into a film. The 20 minute film shows a multi screen collage through which a longing for tribal habits is explored. A film about being homesick for a place you have never been. Trailer below:
