Matins
Synopsis
This is one of those "little films" which is pure "cine poem" in the sense that it is picture, but also given over to what we call "abstract" - which is to say it arises as mind's light and exists, as such, as filmic "prayer." (Made on the occasion of, and inspired by, Jim and Lauren Tenney's marriage.)
