Plumb Line


Rental Format(s): 16mm film

Breaking down, splitting apart, burning up: a relationship and the film itself. Edited from scrap diary footage shot in 8mm, hand printed as 16mm. PLUMB LINE is a moving and powerful subjective chronicle of the breaking up of a love relationship. The film is a devastating exorcism, as the viewer sees and hears the film approximate the interior memory of the experience.

"PLUMB LINE was beautiful, laying everything open even more than FUSES - a very public private film - and as clear as crystal." - David Curtis
