If animation is an expression of one's Soul, then Signe's soul according to the DVD she just released with her 10 animated films (1991- 2005) ranges from an entertaining whore ("Five Fucking Fables") to a monk searching for Meaning of Life ("The Gold of the Tigers"). In-between those two extremes you'll find enthusiastic dentists, talking animals and flowers, dragons hurt by innocent girls and vacuum cleaners willing to protect housewives.

Woman directed by

USA,
Animation,

Color,
Magnetic Monaural,
00:10:00
“Woman” is a visual poem about the Creation of a woman and her two ways of encountering a man. In one way she has a potential to bring Death to a man. In the other she can give him her Love.
It all depends on man’s actions.
A woman by herself is neither good nor evil. Neither she is a passive object of man’s desires. It is all about interaction.
“Woman” comes from my own personal mythology but I believe that the images I use are quite universal.
I wanted “Woman” to have a dreamlike quality. The images come from my own dreams as well as from the dreams of all women I know.
