Synopsis
Direction is an experimental documentary that explores the parallel between physical and spiritual directions. Both film and video are used to reach the desired visual effect. Video projections are shown through glass and water which is then refracted onto a screen where it is shot using 16mm film. The result both captivating and restful as the light creates many different shapes which is then mixed with the grain of film. Descriptions of physical directions and tellings of experiences with God are spoken from many different characters throughout the piece. Ambient sound created by Mike Germain is subtle yet effective in assisting with the mood of the piece. Thematically Direction deals with a personal desire to feel at home, whether it is on the physical or metaphysical level.
