To You Dear Friend

To You Dear Friend

A few years ago I was plagued by an intense bout of insomnia.  This film is an attempt to communicate my inner life during that most difficult time. Much of the film is shot through homemade lenses. I choose to keep the soundtrack silent to accentuate the rhythmic structure of the images and communicate the trance like space between waking and sleeping.
