Mesmorizing!, 10 October 2007
8/10
Author: Alex from NYC

I initially stumbled on this film while flipping through the channels and stopping on PBS. What made me stop was the fact that I couldn't figure out what I was seeing...the images seemed old, yet the content was new...I was locked to the screen trying to interpret the story unfolding in front of me. The music was haunting, and matched the images perfectly...the emotion and mood was very clear, even without dialog. Living in NYC and seeing it from the vantage point of a 1924 camera made for an interesting intellectual experience...we are used to associating different film/video qualities with different time periods...and this production challenged what we are used to.

I would highly recommend this film and you should watch it a few times to catch the many details.
