Sshtoorrty
A short story whose two halves (and even the subtitles) are superimposed on top of each other. The merged result is then repeated several times, with differences emerging as the two strands slowly fall out of sync. Snow’s only foray into narrative cinema features slapstick material and lets the audience choose their own path through the film.
*Corpus Callosum
Incorporating aspects from Snow’s entire body of work, *Corpus Callosum navigates the divide between the analogue and the digital, and between illusion and reality. Office workers are at their desks in a skyscraper, a family sits at home in front of the TV, and nothing is quite what it seems. Named after the nerve fibres that connect the left and right hemispheres of the brain, Snow’s final feature-length film - his “greatest film”, according to the critic Jonathan Rosenbaum - is a hallucinatory riff on early 21st century existence.
