Anuradha Chandra’s Blink of an Eye was a complicated film, impressionistic, idiosyncratic, not sure my memory is doing it justice. I was completely fascinated with it, especially the way the filmmaker would investigate a shape, move on, and then return to that shape, perhaps informed somewhat by the intervening set of images. Really wonderful sensibility here in the navigation between forms.The rhythmic feel to the cuts helped time expand and then by contrast speed up. While watching, I remember being very interested in light moving to shadow. At some moments, the film felt to me completely about time. Other movements felt more about shape, or light. Soundtrack was perfect. Thanks for showing it. I would definitely go out of my way to see more work by this filmmaker now.
