just finished watching it and that is the same effect it had on me.
“It is on a day like this one, a little later, a little earlier, that you discover, without surprise, that something is wrong. That you don’t know how to live and you never will know.”
A sensory experience. Feels like your teachers and parents hammering you with lectures, in a good masochistic way...
“Indifference has neither beginning nor end. It’s an immutable state; an unshakable inertia (…) Indifference dissolves language and scrambles the signs”... Distressing and strikingly beautiful film. ♥ Georges Perec ♥
Like a looping overture to a film that won’t, can’t take shape, it erases itself as it goes along. Even when the spleen vents without warning (and breathlessly), it’s just a glitch, a slight tear in the fabric. I’d compare it to Arvo Part’s Tintinnabuli composition: parallel voices echoing and converging, rhyming and doubling the same theme incessantly. One-note, but what a note!
