_what
poster for the feature film, familiar touch.
_how
friend and producer alexandra byer introduced us to sarah friedland. sarah was looking for a poster for her debut feature film, familiar touch. the film depicts a woman in her eighties dealing with the onset of dementia. it's a delicate and moving film that looks at how as our faculties fail us with age, others senses and experiences can become more pronounced. 

we presented a series of ideas to sarah and after some discussion she went with the one you see here. sarah then took a photograph of lead-actor kathleen chalfant's hand and arm, and caspar used that image as a basis of a mixed-media painting. the poster, including its hand-painted lettering, was worked on in various countries, and finally finished in berlin.

during the making of the poster the film was selected for the 2024 venice film festival. do see it if you have the means.
