Kisses

HSIEH Pei-Wen 2000 Taiwan Experimental Short color 8min Betacam
Kiss is an act of desire and possession. The first half of the movie talks about the burning desire when love is just like metal in the fire; red and hot. Lovers swallow kisses like hungry animals. Whereas the second half is just the total opposite-what goes on when love goes away? Images become cold, black and white, slow, quiet, "Kiss" uses colors and images to tell the story of love.
