Words

By James Pomeroy | 00:02:15 | Animation, Experimental | 01/10/2016

As Words the poem is about language so the film is an embodiment of the language of the text and all language.

The Exquisite Corpse is an exciting and unique collaborative film project, involving a group of eleven filmmakers contributing different segments in one movie.
