Through a purely conceptual, poetic exercise imbued with subtle irony, the short film explores and deconstructs the routines, daily tensions, and habitual dynamics of cohabitation and roles within the home. Using the fluid movement of grains of sand on a light table, the Ansorge brothers capture in a few moments the cyclical nature, repetition, and micro-interactions that shape intimate family and domestic life.
Scenes from Domestic Life was directed by Ernest Ansorge and Gisèle Ansorge.
Scenes from Domestic Life runs for 2min, and was released in 1980.
