The Night Before the Shipwreck Trailer (2026)
25 August 2026
Two fugitives spend their final days together, wandering along indeterminate borders amidst deserts and tides, ruins and makeshift shelters. In a world where the concept of home no longer exists, their unsettling journey begins to resemble—all at once—a forced displacement, a guerrilla-like existence, an escape from reality, and a funeral procession. The film counters the conventional expressive functions of mise-en-scène and editing with radical slow motion and double exposure. Drawing on techniques that emerged at the dawn of cinema, it shifts the focus from the characters' story to the very fabric of their ghostly presence: gestures, touches, the play of light, landscapes, the sound of the surf, and digital noise.
