Gestalt weaves together actuality films of the past in a fresh and contemporary sensibility. Horrors of manipulation, uncountability and ignorance. "Gestalt: an organized whole that is perceived as more than the sum of its parts"

Inspired by the complexity of the entire film-footage captured by Eva Braun, while in the inner most circle of Adolf Hitler and his private world, these observations challenge the viewer's perception of what is fact and to a greater extent what is unperceived. History teaches us the horrors of manipulation, unaccountability and ignorance. Historical moments that mirror all aspects of today’s society and humanity.
