Immaculate Generations no. 1

Best Short Experimental Vito A. Rowlands USA, Belgium, Experimental, 10’55’’

If the eyes are the window to the soul, Immaculate Generations no. 1 presents its viewer with a look into thousands of souls. Equal parts Carl Sagan and William Blake, this flicker film is composed of tens of thousands of individual retinal photographs. Animated between 12 and 24 frames per second, they make for a dazzling rush into the maelstrom of life. Every retinal exposure is a galaxy, replete with its own sun, star-studded clouds, and light refracted through time and space.
