Nominated in Sight & Sound 2017 Film Poll and Village Voice 2017 Film Poll for Best film, Best first feature, and Best director, “Sleep Has Her House” is Scott Barley’s much praised feature opus. Through long static takes, the film develops a contemplative, hypnotic experience, akin to paintings that move, mixing live action and still photography (shot on iPhone) and hand-drawn images. In a world seemingly devoid of human beings and inhabited by only a select few animals, an undefined presence manifests, embodied as the wind. It passes through the valley, lake, and the woods, leaving only mysterious deaths in its wake. As the night creeps in, the supernatural forces at work transcend into the natural, with apocalyptic consequences. TRT 90min.

"Although I started in this world as an editor thinking of learning visual effects, I unexpectedly fell in love with 35mm analog photography, and little by little I met the world of super 8 and 16mm, so I immediately started experimenting with the grain, the scratches and the infinite possibilities the analog world has to offer."
An evening of moving images and sound that takes the form of a "chamber cinema," a “cinema of friends,” a nano-revelation that attempts to expose the infinitesimal, the marginal and the historic.
