OBJECTS OF DESIRE

"Objects of Desire is a late 19th century study concerning the rudiments of sound and their imagined origins as inspired by volume and movement. The film explores the work of Hungarian professor Péter Harsányi (1926 - 1979) who dedicated his life to the study of objects and their sounds. Through viewings of his collections, interviews with his peers and photographs from the Harsányi estate, we are invited to enter a peculiar, sensory world of objects; archived and presented." 

A fictional documentary made at International Film School Wales. Sounds collected on location in Budapest, Hungary. 

Directed & Animated by Joseph Wallace
