MAMMALIA

Short Film

Elia Kalogianni (VAV – moving image)


In this bewildering mythical fable bordering on one of cannibalism, two women share a house with a dog, a parrot, a rat, and a fish in a competitive relationship about domestic hierarchy or game of domination. It entails a collapse of ethical reasoning, dilemma of meat-eating, and raw-meat-eating. Are we ‘wild’ animals even if we don’t live in a jungle?
