Best Short Experimental Bryce Kraehenbuehl Australia, Experimental, 8’58’’

“Red Earth” presents an imagined future where a rediscovered archive of photographs, sound and film captures the beauty of several extinct ecosystems within South Australia. Shot on an endangered and no longer produced film stock called Aerochrome, this experimental film abstracts the eco-systems and landscapes by turning them a crimson red or deep pink.The film is overlaid with a rich soundscape of field recordings that immerse the audience within these unique places.
