After having retired from teaching and moving to Vancouver, Canada, Brakhage began work on a "dream-project" of sorts, a series of film's to be made completely by scratching into the film emulsion, as he had successfully done so many times previous with eloquent and visually captivating results; this was to be the CHINESE SERIES. But the filmmaker was taken once again by his battle with debilitatingly-painful terminal cancer and, as such, was unable to complete the film by the time of his death. As a final wish he asked his wife to release ...

This is for me the weirdest flick to review. The director, Davy Bosschem, is not unknown for me. Back in those days of television work he used to be a camera assistant in programs were I was involved. Years later when he finished school I came across him again at work and he told me he wanted to make a feature. Still a short but he was sure of his stuff. But I had seen so many independents going wrong at so many points that I never believed he could make a flick. He asked a bit of advise concerning effects because he knew my acknowledge of horror and weird flicks, I even told him were he could sell his stuff on the Web but suddenly the DVD wa...

A stand of birches. Sunlight brightens and dims, revealing more or less of the woods. A little grass is on the forest floor. Is there a shape in the shadows? Something green is out of focus. The light flashes, and the screen goes dark from time to time. We look up close at the bark of trees. Is the god of the forest to be seen?

We see a film negative of a nude couple embracing in bed. Then, back in regular black and white images, we see them alone and together, clothed, at home. It's night, she sees his reflection in the window, she closes the drapes. After sex, again in a black and white negative, they sit, smoke, have coffee. They kiss, she smiles. They light candles. The images are often quick, the camera angles occasionally are off kilter; the room is sometimes dark and sometimes lit, as if lit by the rotating of a searchlight. The images again appear in negative when they return to bed.
