Marked by vibrant color, hypnotic interludes, and sensual appeal, Acadian Nights is an experiential art film inspired by the universality of dreams- particularly dreams of houses and the spaces that contain us. Elements of hybridization, collage, and animation blur the boundaries between fantasy and reality. Archetypes of family emerge from Weiss’s constructed images. The narrative is grounded in the cycle of waking and dreaming.
