About
Shot entirely on two hand-cranked Bolex cameras, this film captures segments from "Wind". Inspired by the Greek myth of Icarus who fell from grace after mistakenly flying too close to the sun, the film contrasts post-industrial waste with stunning images of artifice. One of 5 short films in "Quintet." Produced by Moving Pictures and Bravo! Premiered at the 8th Annual Moving Pictures Festival.
