Sounding Glass

A man in a forest is subject to a flood of impressions; rhythmic waves of images and sounds give form to his introspection. (BenRussell,program notes, Berlin Documentary Forum 2) With very few images culled from the flood of footage originally taken during World War II, the filmmaker manages to express the incomprehensible trauma of war as a strong visual experience. With a highly compressed use of sound and image, Sounding Glass creates a visceral impact tha can only be achived by cinematic means.(Jury statement.
