When facing the unknown, the human brain is a powerhouse of dreams, paranoia, and pure ingenuity that helps fill in the gaps. An impeccably stylized short film written and directed by Anderson Wright plunges viewers into one woman’s inventive search for reason and rationality.
“The Mark On The Wall” is based on Virginia Woolf’s short story of the same name, which opens with the mysterious line—”Perhaps it was the middle of January in the present year that I first looked up and saw the mark on the wall.”— before sinking into a stream-of-consciousness style monologue of speculation and intrigue. The film emulates Woolf’s signature form as the narrator visualizes all the joyful, harrowing, and disturbing possibilities that caused a dark spot to appear within her home. Unsurprisingly, it’s not what she thinks.
