Looking at the construction of things.
I went to All Fall Down again, the first time was such an explosion of beauty I could not see the way it was put together clearly. It was so nice the way local stories from time spanning over 100 years wove in and out of fragments of poetry texts, letters. Together it made a lovely and sad song.

Block B. by Chris Chong was really fascinating in how narratives were applied to two single shots, one day and one night, of a concrete stack of apartments. The director spoke of In Betweens. We could not see the protagonists but we could hear their stories. Mostly they were immigrants, displaced, pretty much maligned, and having than negative sort of invisibility, where you do not see what you do not want to. Anyway, a careful composition just under the surface of what we see, meaning hearing these little stories, and tracing your eyes to see who is actually "acting" was a great strategy.

Notes;

Farewell, by Stefan Zeyan in the Black Box is a gorgeous trip into film grain that works as a look at the disintegration of memory. We hold a face in our minds with love, slowly the image dissolves, rots

Through. Bejamin Krieg and G. Cailleau.
Water, light and time as a trio i could listen to for hours. Substitute listen and see. interchangeable.
