A Child Goes Burying Dead Insects

2009 · 12 min

The repeated sequence of "a girl appearing in the woods, burying dead insects and then leaving" is made without a camera. With each repetition, the film images are broken down and the color is fading. The girl is performed by the filmmaker herself, channeling media as a medium. This film is structural but also has a narrative.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

A Child Goes Burying Dead Insects is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A 2009 film from an era before CGI overload, with real performances that still hit hard. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
