Stages of Mourning (2004): cast, story & where to watch
2004 · Film

Released in 2004, Stages of Mourning is a notable film directed by Sarah Pucill, running about 17 minutes.
What it’s about. Ritualised through performance to camera, Stages of Mourning is Pucill’s journey of bereavement. In as much as this is a meditation on coming to terms with loss, the film is an exploration of how our relationship with the dead is made different through film. The artist orders image fragments of her late lover and collaborator, Sandra Lahire. By trying to physically immerse herself into photographs and film footage or by restaging these, Pucill forms a continuous stream of a life of two lovers. Through this doubling and layering, illusions accumulate as if these were a product of a machine that didn’t stop.
Who’s in it. Stages of Mourning stars Sarah Pucill and Sandra Lahire.
