Jaunt

Andrew Kötting | UK | 1995 | 5' |

| IFFR 2001

A trip along the River Thames. Kötting reduced the journey lasting couple of hours along the river to five minutes by speeding up his film, giving a dry and comical effect to an old-fashioned day out that is more fun and more beautiful than people are willing to admit. Andrew Kötting (1959) graduated in 1985 from the Ravensbourne College of Art & Design and has made several 8mm and 16mm films for e.g. the BBC and Channel Four.
