Some researchers have found how hypnosis can allow us access to hidden memories, help us overcome phobias and can be used to manage pain. It can even be used to retrieve lost memories from purported past lives and alien abductions. The results are intriguing, if not controversial.

Bringing offerings of rice, flowers, and woven coconut leaves, clients visit Jero in her household shrine to determine the cause of their son's death. Jero lights an incense brazier, sprinkles holy water, and recites mantras as preliminaries to trance. Several ancestors and finally the young son speak through her voice, revealing the nature of his premature death (witchcraft) and his wishes for cremation. In contrast to other films about Balinese trance which focus on spectacular, community performances, this film provides an intimate view of a fascinating process of communication between Jero, the spirits, and her clients who are at one point moved to tears.

At the age of 20 I became a war reporter, self-exiled in the no-man’s land between Lebanon and Israel. There, I discovered a generation of young Middle Easterners who found refuge in rave parties. They were fleeing the trauma of war. I was running from something else. Through transcendence and the feeling of being alive, our therapy was collective.

Tranced will allow audience members to truly experience the movie in a whole new way. Tranced will hypnotize willing audience members to participate with the movie in a way no other movie going experience ever has. When the characters on the screen get hot or cold, so does the audience. When they ride a roller coaster, audience members will feel as though they too are riding the same ride. The story follows single-mom Annie Bodie and her quest to find out that life really has great things to offer her other than a dead-end job where she hates her boss, pointless personal relationships, and the stress and anxieties of everyday life. It is at this crucial junction in her life where she meets billionaire philanthropist Sterling Wynns, who takes her on a mental, physical, and emotional ride unlike anything she has ever experienced. It is on this journey that she realizes that happiness is truly more attainable than she ever realized and she truly can get what she wants out of life.

"3Lux-2 - the non stop techno trance video mix" has originally been released by Stud!o K7 (Berlin) on VHS in 1992.

This film is made with personal and public archive footage. The project is an evocation to the transpersonal memory, a tool to appeal to images and views that are organically overlap. The image layers fused frames together in a mesh, a porous unity, the editing of a new singular body of images. An internal pulse, a vital beat becoming image and sound. A babbling mantra –the projector mechanical sound-, the movement of the cars, the atmosphere and the people create an image score. This orphan-film, found-footage, personal register is taken out of its original context and taken into an artistic discourse so as to create a new narrative thanks to the deconstruction and the addition of images. The original footage was reinterpreted in a new visual story: an expanded cinema projection. Trance was born as a video installation composed by three projections projected simultanously.
