genre experimental/fiction
director Kirthi Nath
producer Kirthi Nath
synopsis the to do list confessions is a new experimental short by filmmaker Kirthi Nath that explores experiences of widened loneliness and undetermined desire, all the while contemplating what it feels like to be a self in the world. Utilizing innovative approaches to sound, image and storytelling, "the to do list confessions" poetically and poignantly engages what it feels like to be a woman encountering the world as a conglomerate of perceptions. Interlaced between a woman in San Diego, CA who dreams she is a woman following another woman through the streets of Paris, and the women in Paris, the film articulates experiences of the self through movements, gestures, and sounds that shift between single and multiple protagonists, for an always slippery and shifting experience of one's self in time and space.
