It was a strange day

A film about the search of my inner self. Some day: a portrait looking for a story. The place of the search is a mirror. The search is symbolized by the exchange of dimensions: the portrait inside a collage of photographs, a mirror without portrait, a portrait instead of the mirror, the picture of myself with the camera, and so on. The film ends with the combination of the portrait with a symbol of death.
