Short movie « Suivez le
fil! » is an editing of three sequence-shot realized with three groups of
children during a workshop on the topic of signature. Starting from a
primitive method of signing which can be found as soon as in Lascaux
paintings, we invited the children to draw the outline of their hand while
holding their look on it than looking at the paper. Drawings thus obtained were reproduced side
by side on a black surface with a long white string that creates a link between the
children. String is then drawn from hand to hand in order
to progressively erase the shapes. This last stage is shot in a
sequence-shot and reversed during editing.
