\"This film splendidly develops the main traits of Brakhage‚\' s films: no hero, visual sensuality, fluidity of movement and montage, a passion for color.\"
Originally a student of the abstract expressionist painters, Stan Brakhage has steadily completed over 200 films in a forty year period. Considered a master in avant-garde circles, his theory of representing \"Closed-eye vision\" in film has led him to th
\"The Movement of People Working\" by minimalist composer, film maker and photographer Phill Niblock portrays human labor in its most elementary form. It is the combination of his slowly evolving harmonic music that creates an otherworldly masterpiece.
