Möbius. By engaging in a one-person board game, a shepherd leads a flock of sheep, a gang of banana juggling sailors and a party of rococo styled hedonists up a tower evoking the shell of an ammonite. When they reach the top on the tower’s spiraling steps, they tumble to the ground, forming new seabed sediments. Through split screen editing, the film explores how a life narrative can be told through a range of associations, memories and perspectives.

Miho Shimizu and Øyvind Renberg were born in 1976 in Tokyo and Oslo and have collaborated since graduating from Goldsmiths College, London, in the early 2000s. Their work forms an ongoing, visually eclectic universe of paintings and sculptures. This extends to meticulous and imaginative costumes and set pieces in films that explore choreography, rhythm, color and narrative structure.
