Project Plan
During my time at AIR 3331, I continue to work on the ongoing project "Apple Eater, Good Kisser?", a poetic 16mm film exploring an Austrian childhood myth: can the way someone eats an apple reveal if they're a good kisser? Through a staged, contemplative act, the film reflects on intimacy, ritual, and transience.
