In Solitude, a Camera-Eye
Direct naar zijbalk
It is already dark. The street in an American suburb is quiet. Only a homeless man is not inside and he asks the camerawoman for $.55. Apart from that there is only a specially observed atmosphere. In the second part, Malaysian palm trees stand in the darkness. Far away and in silence, fireworks go off. A beautiful example of poetic cinema.
