Intertwining prevails here in various ways: in the intertwined stories told by several characters – a puppeteer, a psychic, a tailor and a scientist, who all happen to live in Cali; in the interweaving of images and a sound that makes us hear the usually inaudible; in the connection to quantum physics, in which two particles, however distant, may share information, thus challenging the theory of relativity. This paradox, known as the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox, is yet to be resolved. What Riccardo Giacconi is interested in are all these more or less visible links : the seam of a pair of trousers, the strings of a puppet, the common point between a sleeping tiger and a bus accident, between the abduction of a cow by a UFO and the Dantean fate of a cockroach. While the characters enlighten us with anecdotes and philosophical digressions, Riccardo Giacconi sets out to divulge, using the resources of cinema only, the secrete links that connect human beings to one another, to objects, to animals, to the elements. Ants seem to stand for the infinitesimally small. A few shots of a neon tube are enough to add the speed of light to the equation. As for sound, the theremin extends the metaphor of the invisible. Thus the remote action happens just before our eyes, should we pay attention to it. (CG)
