‘Camera Obscura’ is an experimental documentary which draws sounds and images from the Dartington Estate in Devon and constructs an idiosyncratic portrait. Verbal and textual definitions attempt to pin down what it is and play against elusive images. Archive material and re-invented historical events evoke the ethos of the past and combine with stories and contemporary details to illuminate the spirit of the place.

After a war, a poet isolates himself in an abandoned village. He is trying to endure in reality by fighting the traumas from the past.

Short film made using a pinhole camera

Inhabited by bodies that question love and death to the limits of madness, that are heard but not seen, and vice versa, Camera Obscura reveals a particular form of appropriation of the work of French writer and filmmaker Marguerite Duras. From the intersection of writing, video and sound, and his usual experimentalism, Bonneville creates a film made up of ghosts and mysteriously hypnotic and sensory images.

A cardboard box with a pinhole in one end and a sheet of vellum on the backside, so that the sun fluttering among the trees is projected onto it. This moving image edit is derived from about 4 or 5 takes on the day venus was to cross the sun's path. As it turned out I got the day wrong, but it wouldn't have mattered as the image that formed on the vellum was so soft and wispish and the trees were in the way that there was no chance whatsoever venus could be seen passing by.

As a police officer investigates the gruesome murder of her colleague, she discovers that a mysterious supernatural force is behind it.

The title “Kamera Obskura” is a Filipino spelling of the latin “Camera Obscura” which simply means “dark room”. The film’s concept adheres to formalist cinema, where the filmmaker’s thesis is to make a semblance of a vintage film seemingly produced sometime in the late 1920s to early 1930s in the Philippines. The thesis is to conjure up a film from a period that did not really exist in Philippine cinema’s historical cultural heritage as we know it, such as a pseudo-expressionist / experimental Filipino cinema of the silent film era. It is a film within a film. The narrative plays with the idea of a retro-futurist world where a prisoner locked away in a dark chamber for over two decades only sees the reality of the world outside through the small hole in his cell, which projects an image of the city on his wall, the phenomenon of the “camera obscura”.
