The Image that Spits, the Eye that Accumulates

Directing: Rhea Storr

Synopsis

The color of skin and of film become the center of discourse: The filmmaker’s mixed-race background is reflected in imprints of the landscape and ruptures within it, but also in the color of the faded Kodachrome film, whose typical visual characteristics have dissolved in time. Hues are barely visible and only with difficulty capture the image of a body that does not fall into any clear categories. 

"Where does film fail or resist us? Working on celluloid I make images which affirm mixed race culture and the cultural in between." R. Storr
