Director‘s Statement:
Unfolding in three vignettes, each offering its own way of seeing movements, all done with in-camera edits on 16mm. The sound for each segment is asynchronous from the image, all in the form of conversations. The first and third segment are phone conversations between friends, and the second is recorded on location of non-verbal conversations between bodies in a martial art space. My artistic assertion in this film is to set up counterpoints between image and sound, between questions and replies, between movement and directions. The film is a note about falling throughout life. Balance is an illusion. Every step a falling.
