About Time 2
Best Shorts, Drama, Experimental

Time passes. Something changed, something remains unchanged.
Figgis has divided the screen into 4 parts, and showed a life – from childhood to old age.

And ten minutes is not enough to understand the subtle interaction of four simultaneous realities.

Multichannel split screening in the vein of Timecode, sometimes converging towards the encounter, other times intersecting temporal planes between childhood and adulthood, life and death. At each transection, the incompleteness of connection, the failure of intimacy, the painful awareness of intranscendable distance.

A part of “Ten Minutes Older: The Cello”

Directed by Mike Figgis / UK / 2002
