Diego Marcon: Dolle 

The main characters in Dolle are two moles and their sleeping offspring. The moles are animatronic puppets programmed to add up a series of 53 numbers. Despite their efforts to be precise, the moles keep arriving at a different sum each time, forcing them to start over again from scratch. Subtle cues such as a hooting owl and dripping tap illustrate the passage of time as the moles face a seemingly endless task.

Diego Marcon is an Italian contemporary artist who explores the language, narrative strategies and structure of cinema. Dispensing with spoken language and coherent narrative, his films often have their own visual logic based on repetition.
