Synopsis

Collected for the first time in one volume, six 16mm experimental films from Candadian filmmaker Solomon Nagler. Gritty, colourful, and always pushing the limits of narrative possibilities, Nagler's work incorporates various techniques of hand-processing, optical printing, and colour manipulation of motion picture film. These collected works explore the way in which film represents our individual personas, and the landscapes that are appropriated into our self-identity. Nagler's films, installations, and curated shows have played across Canada, in the U.S., and in Europe.
