Safe Waters is based on a one and a half minute long sequence taken from the film Papua Neu-Guinea by Adela Kraft. It is an essayistic reflection deciphering vacation enclaves and resorts as imperialist and colonial outposts that serve as architectural agents of Western hegemony. Caught between innocent contemplation, constructed duplications, hidden barriers, and intentional taming, the short film complicates the gesture of showing and highlighting female film-making practices. It distorts the artificially created, standardised self-reflections of Western power and unfolds an intersectional perspective on tourist fantasies, fictions, and all associated image productions.
