Movements in a cinema

 

I was in the cinema to see a french movie “Khamsa”. The choice of a french movie was because I don’t need to be concentrate to understand, just concentrate about what I’m seeing. But actually I wasn’t really attentive of the movie but more about the audience.

It’s really interesting to draw the movement of the audience in a cinema because it’s dark so you don’t really see what you are drawing (just concentrate on the movement of the people). Also, it’s really small movement so you need to be attentive to see it. For that I choose a strategic seat in the cinema : at the top in a corner so I can see all the audience. it’s a lot of repetitive movement (people drinking, eating, speaking...).

I try also to take picture of the screen to capture movements.

After fleeing from his foster family, 13-year-old Khamsa returns to the gypsy camp outside Marseilles where he was born. Not much seems to have changed since he was forced to leave – there are still late night card games, diving in the Mediterranean, and high-stakes rooster fights.

Now, however, his beloved grandmother is near death; his father, who sired numerous offspring with countless girlfriends, shows little interest in his welfare; and his dad's ex-wife hates him enough to denounce him to the police. Only his cousin Tony and best friend Coyote wholeheartedly welcome him back.
