No(thing) Staring Back

(Some of us) Still run down the same [mental&emotional] streets we revered/reproached/replaced as children.

Onward, upward, greener [redder] grasstures.

Locked away but not away; somewhere nearby but unreachable, a periphery so notfaroff it's always in sight.

As a family struggles to survive in rural isolation during the Great Depression, their daughter's secret affair begins a journey into the unknown.

Two men. Friends? Enemies? Lovers? Brothers? One is nothing, success or failure depends on two.

I really hope this is well-received. I really hope there's some sort of reprieve.

A 'reversal' of Jean-Léon Gérôme's 1872 painting Pollice Verso.

From a small cabin in the mountains of New York, Nina Breeder and Massimilian Breeder begin a journey across the United States. California is just the initial destination, but just as the edge of the surrounding landscape expands, so does their ultimate destination. A contemplation of nature and time along a raw journey in the American landscape.

A psychedelic montage of home movie footage gives way to a silent western story.

Beyond all human restraint lies one's lugubrious layers of paint.

1 minute experimental film.

Return to 'burn' only to find out you're already in that urn.

Shadows frighten what one oughtn't be gripping (that thing before/hind you).

Rather pointless, rather stilted, fetid; not what we want us going after.

Hiding inside&out, writhing about, taken out&in.

Calangros: Um faroeste sobre o terceiro mundo

Shot in the abandoned buildings of Gary, Indiana and the cornfields of Western Illinois, The Twenty-One Lives of Billy the Kid presents a fractured historical narrative without any real protagonist, one in which the titular character goes mostly unseen - Billy the Kid as the always-off-screen assailant, as a ghost’s laugh, as a shadow on the road.

Radical recurrences & rancorous requests raze my daze.

On the island of Tanna, a part of Vanuatu, an archipelago in Melanesia, strange rites are enacted and time passes slowly while the inhabitants await the return of the mysterious John.

Filmmakers use archival footage and animation to explore the culture surrounding nuclear weapons, the fascination they inspire and the perverse appeal they still exert.
