this film is an attempt to create "pure cinema"; that is, it is an attempt to create an emotionally intense cinematic experience using only autonomous film techniques rather than stories, characters and actors.
made for the wndx one take super 8 event.
the one take super 8 event (ots8) began in 2000, with 20 filmmakers each shooting a single reel of super 8 film, which then premiered to an audience without the filmmakers seeing their work beforehand. all the films were shown as shot. no cuts. no splices. the popularity of this non-competitive festival has allowed it to return each year with more filmmakers participating. to date over 600 films have been created for the one take super 8 event!
