Texas Switch

| Reflections of Things Unseen
(BALi, KulturBahnhof Kassel)

“Texas Switch” is a term used to describe a cinematic trick in which a stunt double replaces an actor without it being easily noticeable. In Darren Dominique Heroux’s film, women talk about visibility and invisibility in a broader sense: gendered gazes, perceptions of age, social invisibility. Heroux uses the possibilities of cinema to make people and things disappear or appear in an almost magical way for a cinematic reflection on the broader social significance of seeing and being seen, on what disappears in a life and what remains.
