The Function of Film
1982
8min
"A declarative and somewhat facetious circular text weaves through many sampled versions of what "film" might be, i.e., home movie, Hollywood, training, documentary, newsreel, sports, abstraction, etc. Shot in b&w and silent, yet two more categories. Along the way, this film provides an identity of its own. Super 8, silent, experimental."
