Aren't we all sometimes?
Havan_IronOak2 March 2004
In this pensive short we meet a Michigan born young man who's been traveling in Germany and is now en-route to Australia. One event after another triggers his chain of memories of the events in his life as we come to know bits about his life.

Although not told in a standard narrative form this piece was consistently interesting and drew me in. I was interested in this young man's stories. It also didn't hurt that both he and his boyfriend were cute.

This piece is well worth the 20 minutes or so that it takes to view but it is more a sketch than a true narrative piece and much is left unsaid or unexplained.

a parable
Kirpianuscus28 June 2018
I saw it as a parable about contemporary society. and it could be. because the pressure of events, memories, facts, meetings, places, fears are easy to provoke a long and profound dizzy state. the film gives fragments of stories. like a sort of confession. like an exercise to be normal or as testimony before the fall. but all is clear, coherent, convincing, maybe seductive . photography, performances, the first sigh improvisation . as a puzzle. or just a parable. a voice as guide in a sort of confusion. or a huge labyrinth. and the final message. easy to assume it. as personal conclusion. or as form of bitter poetry.
