In this silent short film, we follow three stories grappling with grief. As the characters within these stories take action and process their feelings, we see the intertwining nature of these peoples lives.
These are work-in-progress elements of some commercial projects and a film to be titled, Knotte Grosse. Beckett received an AFI Independent Filmmakers grant to produce Knotte Grosse but it was unfinished at the time of his death. The images allude to computer-generated graphics (but are not) and...
The pantun is about a game I (we) used to play pretending to be the characters in invented fairy tales. This time it was a snail. The images of multiplied me are out of time with each other, I give up and try dancing.
An abstract computer-generated film. The image is of squares revolving in space around and through each other. Colors and forms multiply and divide against a beautiful symphonic score by George Kleinsinger.
