Gadflies

These [Super 8] films were made in 1976. I do not wish to describe them. If a film is a work of moving visual art, it is its own subject and subject only to itself. The extent to which a film can be described is the extent to which it is deficient as a work of visual art. If the summary of the subject of a film can be interpreted as that which is intended to inspire perception in the viewer, rather than as that which attempts to describe the film for the viewer, then (the title) is my ‘summary of the subject.’ – S.B.
