Synopsis

"Jun'ichi Okuyama is a cinedoer." Jun'ichi Okuyama plays making a film from the material and accidents that gradually disrupt the natural recording of the camera. It all starts and ends with the noise of the projector. Landscape sequences gradually undergo interference and rhythmic interruptions of one hand, of a reel in motion and then of a crack passing through the photogram from one side to the other, are all tangible signs of the presence of the filmmaker. The universe breaks up and recomposes in this back and forth between reality and its "in the movie" reflection.
