Blowup Film Fest
Caroline
A meditation on time, attention, memory, and reverie.
Sound from the breaking of spring echoes into blurred and hypnotic summer evening lights, constructing a fantastical location built from time and distance, steeped in our perceptions and reminiscences. Its slow-moving image, generated by pushing a consumer camcorder to its limits of resolution and light sensitivity, abstracts the land- and life-scape of its subject, breaking with a narrative approach to allow a viewer to feel, hear, and see directly.
Visiting Caroline, we sift through our memories for afterimages that help us make sense of the present moment.
