FORWARD
A series of short films, 2021
"Patience is key, and with each cast, each break we release all tension and negativity, breathe light. If you can relate, if this film speaks to you, I see you. Forever a work in progress, looking forward. Ba ci kanam, until then."
- Natou Fall, “Ci Kanam”
grasp yourself in a bath…look forward
paint in the mud…look forward
find yourself with the void of light and shadow…look forward
get ready for that yard sale…look forward
birds chirping within a digital landscape…look forward
echoes of dystopian optimism…look forward
a barn forgotten adjacent to yellow…look forward
the anxiety of an internet economy…look forward
in or out as the ceiling fan spins…look forward
a run through artic cold with still breath…look forward
the ghost of domestics sounds…look forward
rising up from your own grave…look forward
a billboard weightless within the clouds … look forward
the reaction to a stank face…look forward
sounds of decay with torn reflections…look forward
five black cats clean themselves amongst rocks…look forward
plasticity of painting sails through the breeze…look forward
a city reflects upon itself…look forward
a monastery self-referential…look forward
listening to a chime from the Yamanote Line…look forward
being thankful and let it go…look forward
a cowboy that keeps riding…look forward
an abstract painting of Little Italy…look forward
remembering your Grandmother…look forward
a history rewritten…look forward
