Who would have thought that what we often hear in contemporary music -- sampling -- would have been tried back in 1970 with a 2-second clip of a woman in a factory handling a large cellophane wrapper?
The beauty of this film comes from its insistence that a simple movement which would likely be performed many times in a single hour could totally consume one's senses. Indeed, despite the apparently banal subject matter, Variations on a Cellophane Wrapper not only shows us, but teaches us how to see the world differently.
Even if you're not a big fan of experimental cinema, I strongly advise that you don't turn down an opportunity to view this film. If you open your mind to what can be presented to you, you'll find those 9 minutes well spent.
