From the beginning text "SOB/S.O.B" to the ending "I forgive you", from Europe in war to post-war North America, through hurt and danger and scars, through feminism (from silence to hearing it all) - a barrage of excerpts from Virginia Woolf, Helene Cixous and others, this film is a
journey to reconcile contradictions.

Sunsets
Artist: Barbara Sternberg
ID : 47732
Description: 2002 [40 min. / excerpt: 3 min. 50 sec.]
Nine sunsets were recorded with a Sony MiniDV digital camera on nine successive evenings. The words of anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss are heard as voice-over in French (the language of its writing) and in English (in translation) as he attempts to describe in precise detail his viewing of a sunset: "If I could find a language in which to perpetuate those appearances, at once so unstable and so resistant to description..." In this tape translations are being rendered. Representations of Phenomenon and the experience of them are being attempted. Images are being created.
