Two fragments of 8mm home-movie footage shot by the artist near Berlin weave together in repeating cycles of action, temporal manipulation, and colour distortion, heightening the viewer’s awareness of film-time and the film-image, and perception of colour in motion.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Le Grice constructs his film as a perceptual mechanism, relying on minimalist found footage. He explores the nature of the filmstrip itself through repetition, deceleration, and color manipulation, focusing on how time and light sculpt the image.

What lingers after viewing is a heightened awareness of the act of seeing. Those who tire of narrative will find a pure, mesmerizing study in cinematic texture and duration. — MovieFinder Editorial
