A Technical Problem, DVD, 16 min., 2008.
In this road-movie Maria Finn travels to Sardinia to find the planned locations for Antonioni’s film. We follow T in his search for Valle della Luna and Isola Rossa, the places documented in the production stills, originally produced for Technically Sweet. A voice-over reads excerpts from the screenplay in Italian while we explore the landscape. While doing so discrepancies between the voice-over and the visual images takes the narrator to unexpected places. Here questions are raised concerning the importance of the place you select for a film location, and how visiting these places affects us.
