Winterland 2009

Overview

The film follows the chaotic shoot of a Jules Verne–style period science-fiction film. Artificial, cardboard-like sets merge reality and fantasy as actors wander off into a forest; meanwhile Tuinder becomes entangled in conflicts on-set and a secret crush on lead actress Tara Elders. The layers are anchored by Tuinder’s reflective voice-over and his recurring character Sally de Winter, a platinum-haired girl in a pink dress carrying a mysterious suitcase.
