A Brief Account of Time

28’30” Full HD video

This 28-minute film runs as an evolving thought on the problem of time.Built from out-of-the-way, off-center narratives and ideas erratically collected in the author’s diary over the years, it follows the ruminations of a semi-imaginary character absorbed in speculation on the enduring enigma.

Combining storytelling and meditation, the mind behind the voice meanders about: from this first commonplace idea down to the inevitable questioning of the medium of film itself and the nature of human consciousness.
